The Wanderer's Minuet and class-design frustrations

[gumas]

Iam one of the people who dont mind WM to continue to exist and also dont mind if one day yoshi decide to remove WM, basically i dont mind either way.

I do however wish some of the change to WM like:
- shorten WM attack cast time to 1sec instead of 1.5sec
- auto attack is enable even with WM on but maybe reduce its damage by 50%
- no cooldown when you turn off WM so you can stance dance with it (very usefull for fight with heavy on mobility)
- just flat out further increase WM bonus damage, the lack of AA somehow make our 30% bonus attack seems bogus

Just apply 1 from those list and iam quite happy with it

I dont understand why they need to completely remove AA when WM is on, its basically give you 30% and at the same time removing 20% (give or take) from your initial dps, other dps class get flat increase dps with no penalty whatsoever when they get their "new gameplay" skill (botd, chakra, ley lines, wyrm trance), there is no penalty like "reduce damage" or "slower attack speed" and such, only BRD WM (2 penalty if you count "semi caster" gameplay too)

This is exceptionally confusing to me? Bards damage isn't low for what they're expected to do, so just a flat damage increase? That would just put them above and beyond. Unless you're referring to decreasing all of Bards potency's to compensate? Which case it's pretty much an overall nerf in the instances where you have to remove WM in a movement heavy ordeal.
