Bards need a buff

[Necato]

That's a lie. There's no fight in the game bard isn't good at.

Bard's dps isn't that much lower and in most cases, it's higher, because the melee aren't that good. It's not uncommon to see bard being near the top in coil 2 runs.

I rarely see exceptional melees that can outclass me. I do see them but they're few and far in between.

Well... I'm terrible at T7, this fight is a nightmare. I use only the threat meter as a reference and I'm always 8th on Melusine. (2nd till the first Renaud though)
Most of the time I am above Melee, but when it comes to mages (both SMN and BLM) I just can't compete with them.
