Bard in the party... thoughts?

[Slyqc]

For Raid of Midan Savage is has already been said, Mechanists are actually a lot better than Bow Mages... errr, I mean Bards.
Currently on Midan savages Bards are going between 1000 - 1200 DPS while Mechanists are around 1100 - 1400 DPS, that's a non negligable difference especially if you take in count their Vulnerability for the whole group.

Bow mages actually needs a buff, either need potency damage up or change damage dealt when in Wanderer's Minuet to Magic Damage. (That last one would be pretty sweet.)

The current median percentile top 50 on FFLogs at the moment is actually pretty much owned with only mechanists.

(That's coming from a top 5 Bard on his server)

Casuals don't see this, so it won't be addressed. Lol, many people still think that BRD > MCH in terms of damage, only because they encountered a few terrible MCHs.

EDIT:Bard needs a dps buff, but a very very small one. As someone already said, maybe to make some of BRD's skills magic, so his DPS rises by a few %.

Not sure about the magic bit but a slight buff would be nice.
