What are the parse numbers on a bard with WM and without?

[SovereignAegis]

I am looking for an awesome parse, both with equal effort and equal gear (ideally the same bard? Bah whatever) on a Bard using WM and then not using WM.

I don't know if the difference in damage is actually that significant even with the alterations.

I don't know what I would do if it wasn't for a daily bard post from SovereignAegis

this right here. even before the changes, you were the last person to be calling for any kind of adjustment, because you dont know. on topic, no, if you want to know if the change makes a difference, lvl it up yourself and find out, or search reddit.

I mained bard from 2.0 till 2.1 then I went smn and then mnk and now with 3.0 back to bard.

There's with WM and without WM parses in same folder

And then there's some I've done today in A/F3 (DF party)

Dummy parses stopped when I ran out of TP

I'm not going to say I'm the best at what I'm doing, but decent dps if you ask me

Edit: Oh right, no food/pot/party buffs those are caue cba

Ah, this is good news!

Using WM actually isn't that big of a DPS increase at all- and this is ignoring mechanics interrupting the casting during WM.

I appreciate this! Thank you!

...Also each time you are very obviously out DPSing the dragoons. I find that funny lol

It's a 12% increase in Damage. I call that pretty significant, especially in a long fight. That would theoretically be 50,000 damage missed over the course of the fight like the A/F3 fight that was shown.

That's just people in DF being bad F4 with a friend on his mnk and he did 120k more dmg in total than me and I was 2nd in total dmg

Are you using marcos on your skills? I thought that was a BRD no no, is it still better to use them? according to your hotbar you have several marco's in place with your regular skills...thats the little gear icon right? o.o
