    New Bard feedback

    Ive tried using Wanderer's Minuet a lot recently, and I must say Im very resentful of this new change. Bard was my favorite job because of its mobility, but this new song would see us basically become a caster and most (if not all) our new actions require this new song.
    Im actually considering quitting the job I loved so much, just wanted to give SE my feedback. Others may like the new song. I personally do not want to be restricted, so I'll likely be swapping to a different main job.
    Good luck my fellow Bards

    Except I imagine content is tuned on basis they would be using all their abilities.

    Anyone can confirm that Mage's Ballad or whatever the name of that song to regen MP DOES NOT work on a Dark Knight when he is in his + DMG % up + MP USED up stance ? (Dark Side or something, can't log in at the moment).

    That's what the DRK ability tooltip seemed to mean to me anyway.

    Would be pretty cool otherwise, that would add another reason besides healers / casters to play this song now

    SE needs to update their archer lore/info on the lodestone.

    Archers constantly assess the battlefield in order to determine the most advantageous ground from which to loose their arrows, as well as the nature of the shaft, point, and fletching best suited to their foe.
    Needs to say:
    Archers are staked to the battlefield with a stick up their ass if they want to use higher weapon skills.
    Nature of the shaft? oh yeah.. we gots the shaft all right. Not as bad as the BLM

    I still feel like I 'm the only one who likes this song... I can move plenty with it on and it's not like I NEED to move every second of the battle.
    If I need to move for longer than a second, it comes off, not hard.

    Such saltyness!

    Honestly, I have a feeling there will be times where this Song is useful, and times where this song is a Hindrance, so alternating between using them, and holding off will likely be come practice. I'll likely treat it like "Sniper Mode" when I get around to catching up Bard to my main classes/characters.

    Bards wanted their DPS to be brought closer to that of the other DPS, that meant hindering their mobility.

    Pretty much.


    My only current gripe with Bard is the change to Barrage, or rather the lack of consistency in its new function. It says it makes a non-critical WEAPONSKILL hit 3 times with only 1 effect, but the only weaponskills it applies to are the DoTs, Straight Shot and Heavy Shot.

    I was a bit disappointed to see that both Quick Nock and Wide Volley were indeed Weaponskills, but they didn't trigger the effect from Barrage.

    Also, the trait still references autoattacks, which is just an oversight i'm sure.

    i actually like the buff lol use it in most boss fights for extra damage and the cast time added to skills is barely noticeable its not a massive cast time ._.
