Bard

[jidion]

What do you guys have against bards doing dmg on par with drgs and mnks and blms and smns for that, first you give us a broken ability wanderers minuet which takes away our ability to run and shoot and bring constant dps you even made minuet in this patch a 15s recast time which still doesnt allow us to stance dance like whms and schs can do with cleric stance, and you give us 2 really good abilities Empyreal arrow and sidewinder, one being locked behind minuet, then you nerf one of our best abilities without even lowering the recast time of the ability, 100 less potency with full bites lowing from 350 to 250(sidewinder). What kind of ignorant, idiotic, person do you have in charge of the bards programming. You took a good job, and you broke it beyond all repair. For this, Once i get my drg to 60, im hanging up my bow on my main job because you guys cant fix and raise the dps on a job that i love so dearly. I have spent countless months on my bard, trying to pick up the best gear, gearing it so that I could be somewhat close to the other dps jobs, but you guys have such a low standard of bard, that you cant even take off the cast time from our Weapon skills while under WM off. In final fantasy xi, rangers were sought to be one of the best dps in the game. You took that idea, and made the ranger a bard, and lowered it to sub standard dps that we cant even match the other dps in the game. You gave warrior a dps stance that can do 7-8k fell cleave crits, whm has the ability to crit for 9-10k on cures, but I can barely break 2-3k on any other ability aside from sidewinder. You add all these dps checks to raids, and extreme primal fights, that no matter how good a bard is geared, we still cant make the dps checks. Either lower the dps checks, or raise the damn bards dps.
