Summoners got nerfed worse in terms of overall damage. Black Mages did, too (presumably no more double dipping in UI/AF buffs), along with their aoe damage. So overall bards actually came closer to summoners/black mages in terms of dps, especially since the 200 TP/global cooldown spent on RoD will now be spent on real damage abilities.
