BARD NERF, does it have to be done by removing abilities???

Now it's known they're not top DPS, but something is still wrong.

"Bard is not top DPS, so we should nerf it further from the top"

The DPS was never the sole problem. It was a factor.

RE:

The issue has always been their ease of use, mobility, utility, combined with their burst DPS and overall DPS. It has nothing to do with enmity.

it isn't top dps, but it deal way too much for all the perks it have, like craptons of buffs and the ability to deal damage while moving. It have far too little downsides, it's only natural to receive the nerf bat

How do you determine "way too much damage" when it isn't the top? What measurement above third place is "way too much" for second place? Doesn't that mean top DPS is even more obscene compared to the DPS behind it if Bards are so much better than the DPS behind them?
