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

They could be going back to how Bard was in the Beta and have it come off of Conjurer. So its back to being more of a support DPS class.

Personally I think they should have left it that way originally , instead of giving into fan demand for a mostly DPS archer. And if they wanted to give into fan demand they should have pushed Bard back until the 2nd jobs were released for the other classes and had the Archer initial job be Ranger or something.

If the job system was entirely brand new, that would have worked. But remember, the job system was branched off from 1.0, and as BRD was already established there, they can't remove it from the job selections.
