    i cant imagine you show up as an archer and someones like hey guy, can you sing.

    who knows

    add: for the cross bow assassin class i made up have things like:stealth, shoot from further distance, and, umm, i cant think of anything else right now
    That could work. My major concern is the fact bards have always used ranged harps and flutes as weapons. The current armory system how would put in a weapon like a harp in? Bows, at least, fill the ranged part of the harp.

    They could have BRD use voice/instruments, and if it's an instrument, slot it to the ammo or pouch slot, but also allowing us to keep a THM wand in main hand (so you can actually solo/fight as a BRD if you wanted).

    EDIT: BRDs could equip daggers and staves etc in XI, but the main "tool" was instruments, could utilize a similar concept here.

    im not saying bard wont be archer, im just saying id be disappointed if it was. job should be an extension of your class. so imagine ranking archer to 50 and then having to give up you bow.(i know you wont have to, but jobs are supposed to be geared better for party play)
