Archer/Bard LB

[Marowit]

I hit 16 on my archer and decided to do my first roulette. During the final fight our tank ended up dying and because the healer didn't raise him I ended up being the tank. Being a squishy archer I was kiting him all while asking our lancer to LB while I took a few hits and after he wouldn't LB even after being asked I did it myself only do discover I have the healer version instead of the meteors.

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?

Technically they are DPS but really they are more a support class once they hit Bard, so I guess that's why they chose to give them a healer LB.

Plus if they were given their own class specific one it would make it a bit imbalanced as they would be the only class to have a unique one.

Wouldn't they just get meteors like BLM and I'm assuming summoner? I know my Monk and DRG both get clouds sword for ours

Arcanist turns to scholar and has a dps LB.

arcanist is a dps class. the direct "upgrade" is summoner. scholar is not.

Thank you for adding so much to this discussion. I'm still relatively "new" to the game and being a monk have always been the one to LB so not having the meteors was news to me

They've pointed out they're new. Maybe they aren't familiar with the functions used on the forums yet? Plus the search function is hardly perfect.

You could have simply posted links to them with advice to search in future before making a thread. Instead you acted like a massive tool to someone just looking for a bit of help.

Good job.

They've pointed out they're new.

Id hardly call 166 posts "new" to the forums

and you'd have to have some extreme tunnel vision to have a lvl 50 and not know by now that the bard Limit is healing, theres topics on the forums about it constantly and bards in game talking about it constantly.
