I think the bow-harp is a fantastic idea, but if you are an ARC that doesn't, then don't play BRD...

Not really sure what the issue is here...
this would be a good idea, but truth is, you probably wont be a better DD without bard. Archer doesnt really need much cross class skills to do its DD job. So a bard will most likely have access to all the archer skills, and some specialized ones. The idea they said is that the roles will be better at their role, so basically while archers DD is top teir versus current jobs, whatever jobs are supposed to be DD, need to be better at DD than they were before, so archer will most likely not be hax, when drg get something like blood of the dragon and does 1.5x dmg for 20 seconds everytime it jumps. (purely fictional ability, but hey sounds cool to me)
