Thread: More options for DPS in 2.2?

Wait, people do end game content without Bards?

Weird. The only thing my FC does without bards is Turn 1 (And we still usually bring one just for the heck of it).

This for sure. I'd say Bards are one of the most in demand jobs. Maybe it's time you find a new group to play with, OP.

Maybe there's just too many bards on your server to do competition with.

Hey, look at the bright side, at least your not one of us MNKs

Funny, MNKs are in demand for my FC. We need more DRG/MNK for Coil.

Bards are easy and fun, so more ppl plays them than melee jobs.
Sometimes its get crazy like 4 BRD on Titan or Garuda Ex xD

DRGs are always in high demand due to versatility (single/AoE damage), group synergy with omnipresent bards and melee LB.
With typical BLM/SMN/BRD/DRG Coil setup monks often get the short stick.

At least most team doesn't mind stacking bard, but most will not stack melee DPS
I was lucky to find a team that doesn't mind having 2 melee dps, me being a mnk and another a drg.

The best way to go about it is to form a static yourself if you can't seem to join anyone else's. 2.2 is also good time to switch your class if you want to, since it'll be easy to cap any class to i90 to start over.

People need bards. but there are plenty of bards to fill that need. on our server demand goes something like PLD = Healers (stupid enrage method)> WAR > summoner > BLM > BRD > melee. Also randomly CT instantly pops when i go as monk and 1hour later when i want to go as bard.

Just gotta level a tank or healer, you'll get your other classes gear'd faster that way, expecially with caps gone.
