    I would rather other classes being boosted instead of ARC being nerfed...

    Still, it's understandable when you think it will become BRD...i could already see people stacking multishot, raging and the attack/STR songs and raping mobs even harder than ARCs do now.

    I agree with you, but i feel that they need to upgrade classes instead of nerfing, in other games if a class is too powerful they upgraded the other classes so at the end everyone was happy about it.

    But yeah as bard archer will be most likely a very powerful class casting attack buffs and raping mobs for that.

    Actually, I think your making this statement with little knowledge of what other games do. Because I have played ALOT of MMOs over the years, and your statement is pretty much off the mark. Generally the only time they buff other classes if they just raised a level cap. Otherwise they pretty much scale down a class that is that OP over the others.

    Its hard to tell how it will actually play out with the changes in how stats are supposed to effect us after the update though.

    If you think about it carefully, when one class is more powerful than every other in the game, nerfing the one is really the best choice. If the developers decided to buff every class to match the one that is overpowered, any content in the game will be trivialized because the entire group as a whole is doing a lot more damage than intended. the only way to counter trivializing content is to make enemies stronger. Overall it is a lot more complicated than just saying, "why nerf me, buff everyone else".

    In most other games the same thing is done, if a class is significantly more powerful than the others it get's nerfed. The only time a class gets buffed is if it's significantly weaker than ALL of the other classes in comparison.
