Yeah, to promote them to use these songs often. I met bunch of lazy fudges. heck, people are lazy to use Foe requiem, it doesn't do squat to them!

My foe requiem is constantly on in Brayflox.

Pet was the reason DRG was bad in FFXI, though. Under ideal circumstances, a dragoon was as good as other DDs. The problem came when your wyvern died and it had a 2 hour cooldown. Your damage was significantly reduced and unfortunately this happened a lot. Add in the fact that they had some pretty bad skill chain weaponskill and it made them very undesirable.

There's a good chance that Bards will get an HP-over-time song to compliment their TP and MP songs once we get the level 55+ job skills when the cap is raised. Although I haven't done the Bard quests for some time now, if I remember correctly, Jehantel uses some unique songs alongside the usual Bard ones we see now (one of which restores a small amount of HP over time while active). This is quite different than most NPCs who just have access to Cure regardless of class/job, and even has its own animation and buff icon. I'm sure this will be one of the future job skills (thus, also justifying why Bard LB is an AoE heal).

For SCH when I place my fairy and she gets knocked back allow her to return to her previous position, its pretty annoying to have to put her back every time.

For the most part I am happy with how SCH skills work, but obviously if they buff WHM they have to buff SCH as well

Edit:- For BRD they should prob make songs more like stances, instant cast and agree that the damage penalty is kind of retarded and should be abolished.
