Can we please get a ranged limit break?

I think this thread (and others like it) highlights how 14's LB system is fundamentally flawed. Every other FF has had character-specific Limit Breaks BECAUSE they could be thematically cohesive, not to mention unique. Ex: Final Heaven looks amazing when a MNK uses it, kinda silly when a DRG does (Dragon PAUNCH!)

Personally, give us back 11's two-hours (though I suppose they're called one-hours now) and I'll be a happy camper. Because honestly, I nearly shat myself out of sheer panic when I saw Hamon Holyfist start casting Hundred Fists.

I'd bet the honest real reason Bard doesn't have a unique LB is because SE didnt want to bother to animate a physical ranged LB that would only be used by BRD. If Musketeer gets added, I wouldn't be surprised to see this get adjusted.

Agreed.
It's obvious the Bard LB is the leftover remnants of beta when they were still /15 CNJ pre-requisite.

I'd love to see more of an FFXI Eagle Eye Shot or Sidewinder LB for both BRD and the future RNG, Musketeer, etc. There's no reason not to have it.

You really think these self-centered morons really bother to think about game balance that doesn't revolve around themselves? I do agree though, that bards needs a new limit break but it will have to be carefully thought out. I suspect this is the reason why the developers have not touched on this yet, as there is a "DEX" icon on the limit break gauge.

Ever have that moment where you go into a dungeon and realize "oh joy 2 archers, now we have to do this without a DD limit break"?

you require a DD limit break in dungeons? oh muh lurd...
