Nerf us to the ground !! lolololololol

Hopefully they let us votekick people off the forums in 2.2.

It was only a matter of time since new nerf BRD cry threads will appear. Shouldn't they rather just delete our job or what? How many nerfs do you want? Enough with this..

He is cute tho, for some reason nerfing bard have made many melee belive that it will sort out all issues toward melee's.

Please OP, Even my grandmother can out-DPS bards by a mile.

I hope the developers read this. they have a huge gap in dps use between brd vs drg or mnk. they totally made bard the king of everything in final fantasy11. now they repeat the same habit.

FFXI Bard: King of Everything? Try the abused tossed aside wife.

If it was the King why was it extremely low as far as community max lvl %?

I was talking about usage/popularity as opposed to damage or parser outputs.

Show me an official census, the game is DPS job heavy in general and I see a mix of them all, all the time. The TGS census only showed job role %, if I recall.

that double minuet was OP , no1 likes to play BRD on FFXI , is the most boring job ever ....sing 2 songs on melee , 2 songs on casters , cast your debuffs and keep everything up.....

I put out as much dps as bards on my scholor... if not a tiny bit more.

Bards are very useful because of all the utility skills they have and thus are wanted in partys. Dragoons on the other hand bring nothing but a limit break to partys, that and the fact that good monks out preform good dragoons by quite a bit on terms of dps.

Somebody who's main is lvl 45 GLD should try playing bard endgame before talking crazy. Why not just remove our bow and arrows and give us feathers to tickle enemies with?

This is amazing how people still bring Nerf bard on the table,
as for now we only have Mage's ballad as the only viable song ( things that we use often, the rest of the song just played every now and then ), mediocre DPS, and silence ( heck more and more PLD and MNK do better job now a days ). Everyone on damn healer forum claiming they need better mana Regen tool. what we will have left soon with? shooting bananas ?

Soon u have to play Justin Bieber to stun bosses, and fear trash.
rest of our song are about useless atm.
Fact's are, we are about to bring less utility to grp, that others dont have, and our dps have realy taken a hit.

We are a hated class and will be until SE makes an effort to the brd job.
