Cant argue on that, thats for sure..

SE should just remove songs and make it a pure dps class, and balance it toward rest of dps.
If not, they should make Brd's utility so strong, it makes up for the dps loss and make the other PT members realy benefit from it.

But imo, my statment still stands, planned while drunk, made in the dark.... SE try make an effort plz...


When talking about coil, Brd is only usefull for progressing grp's. after ppl get geard up, brd becomes obselete.
