Bard - they broke my job

[Ooshima]

But all endgame bards I ever saw, stood still most of the time anyway. The needless, superfluous movements some bards make, simply don't need to happen. You don't have to be able to run around at all times, the game doesn't require it and SE knows this. Furthermore, most bards have complained about a loss of dps over other jobs for some time, SE gave them the option to have similiar dps to other jobs and the result is more complaints it would appear.

It will be interesting if SE does anything with WM.

Names of those so-called end game bards.

Good end game Brd's that stood still?
Repelling shot = 30 sec cooldown 80 potency ogcd.

Good bards never stood still for long periods.

Bard is meant to be like this

i personally am just not a fan of cast times. I've always preferred to remain mobile and it's actually why I enjoyed leveling ninja so much. Playing MCH has been fun, but the cast times from Gauss barrel takes some of that away for me. Bard was fine before, imo. Cast times were for mages, physical range was about mobility.

This guy gets it and mobility used to be the main selling point for Bard.

I used to love Oschon.

Then I learned his song, and it sung of only death and cast times.

(Not a fan.)

I dont know what planet people came from but good Bards in RAIDS used to ALWAYS have to do alot of critical mechanics since we could move and shoot. Now we are about as viable as asking a BLM to do blue / red fires.

Looks like we need to stack up Skill speed for WM,, but wait isnt cast time affected by SPELL SPEED????

Cast time of physical attacks is governed by skill speed.

I'll have to stop you right there. So you claimed that you witnessed ALL endgame bards in action? and all they did was stood there like a dummy?
Do you by chance main a bard enough to call our movement superfluous?

I find it amusing in every thread, there are always these players who doesn't main a bard coming in and tell us "your class is alright, you just do not know how to play it, lol lel rofl". No offence but I really find it amusing because it's like a boy telling a girl "hey, I know how it feels to have pms but deal with it".

Well he said "all endgame bards I ever saw" actually... :/ So no he never claimed that lol
