I've permanently solved The Wanderer's Minuet problem...

I'm sure the "best bards" are pretty happy to get a damage buff.

They're not doing anymore damage as their were in 2.0 in comparison to the other classes in 3.0. All jobs' performance are balanced around their post-50 tool kits. Throwing out random numbers, a BRD's maximum output that was 5-10% lower than that of other classes in 2.0, is still present in 3.0 even with WM active.

You know how work stations have this sign up saying "It's been X days without an incident"? I feel we need this for clone thread that pop up. "It's been 0 days without a WM hate thread""

To be fair, most of the discussion is being tied to specific topics rather than new threads nowadays anyway.

I guess I should be angry that I can't queue as a DPS when I'm playing my WAR even though I'll totally demolish just about any DPS that I can get stuck with in DF, right?

Because a warrior (and in the end, they're still capable of tanking most content anyway because of enmity generation, higher defense and overall higher survivability outdamging a true dps class) makes a load of sense.

Something that people need to know that there's a variety of reasons why bards (which can also be divided even further) that do not like WM, some you may not agree with (such as the freedom of movement because honestly I didn't move as much as bard in even in 2.0), others are edging on QoL or design (their flow of gameplay and interaction with 2.0's toolkit), and debatable (utilities, function, group composition and synergy)
