    No I didn't, lol. I just got up and watched the job skill video and was horrified when I saw a delay on Windbite and Poison Shot.

    Wanderer's Minuet is what was used, this allows charging times on the skills for more damage iirc.
    It's a self-buff song. You cannot move, you stay still and charge.
    That's a more RIP bard lol.

    Sigh... Brd's are getting a song called Wanderer's Minuette that buffs it skills while adding a cast time to them. So you get more damage, but with a trade off.

    You have essentially a new stancesong (It doesn't cost MP and can be mixed with your other songs). In it, you will lose auto-attacks entirely, and your actions will require a charge time during which you won't be able to move - but it is supposed to significantly amplify your DPS. It's meant to be swapped in and out based on if you have an opportunity to safely do so.

    you can choose when to play a song that allows stronger attacks, but you cannot move and use them or auto attack when this song is playing

    Prepare to see a lot less bards. Most love the ability to just run around all the time loldpsing.

    That, or prepare to see a lot of bards not using minuet, since its a song and all.

    And then instantly went to the forums and made a complain thread. Way to go.

    Well no, this will sort out the good bards with the bad.
    Bad bards will obviously go in a different job
    Good Bards will know what to combine with this song (I.E, if it actually gives an buff, Raging Strikes/Hawk's Eye).

    Also, was it actually said we cannot auto attack? Cause I believe that's not true.
