I wonder if they give BRD a 10% damage increase for using certain songs instead of reducing by 20% would make BRDs sing situationally. I see argument and a competition happened where a BRD and BLM fought for high damage. The BRD didn't cast Requiem nor Ballad to keep from giving the BLM the buff and so he wouldn't get the 20% penalty.

Many will say that a BRD who can't push extremely high numbers shouldn't be a BRD. One guy said,
"If you can't push 360 while using Ballad or Paeon, you should become a healer."

Personally, I'll NEVER neglect what I'm in a party for, and I'm not going to strain myself meeting your demands.
