Archer/Bard LB

[RyuDragnier]

So my question is why do archers and I assume bards have the healer LB instead of the DPS one? We are considered a DD class and job right?

Back in 1.0 Bards had access to healing abilities and the 2ndary necessary class to go BRD was Conjurer. They switched it to Pugilist for 2.0 on, but they never fixed it so Archers/Bards would have a different LB. I guess to avoid them becoming all that and a bag of chips.

All Lb´s are gonna be reworked . Job Related Limit Breaks are alsready in the works and Anounced. So i think maybe Bard will get the EES back (2h from FFXI Eagle Eye Shot, was the most devastating single target action you could get would fit in with Melee Lb just different Animation) =)

Melee needs to keep their most powerful LB status. It's too tempting in too many fights to just do ranged only so it's nice to have one more reason to at least bring one melee. To me, it makes sense to have ranged physical dps be their own LB type. Maybe have it be a line attack like the first boss in pharos does. Power would probably be somewhere between the Melee single target and Mage AoE.

wrong info. the animations are being reworked, not the limits themselves.

So SMN and BLM will have unique LBs from each other? I'm excited to see what SMN gets, since it's likely BLM will keep the current one.

yup. not sure where dragonedge got any info saying the limits themselves were changing, but they arent. it animation is changing tho. trying to remember what thread the reply was in about it.

That wouldn't be very fair, would it? If everyone get something new I want it aswell

I think Mega-Flare would be fitting ^.^

Bahamut-Egi?

Only one way to get it. Defeat Bahamut 200 times over on Extreme difficulty.

I think it would make more sense for Summoners to get the Mega Flare than BLMs.
