Machinist vs Bard

[Bourne_Endeavor]

The melee dps and BRD don't really want it, but they're not hurt by it in the same way.

Ninjas want to have a word with you about this statement.

just play bard 4head mch is dead

BRD is objectively better than MCH in majority of the content in the game. They provide more raid dps and support for the party, not to mention being more flexible with positioning, latency and gear choices. You also get attention from the devs.

Did you mean a formal execution?

When the top MCH contributors tell you to roll BRD, you know something is f'd up.

When will SE realize that making a job mechanic scale with gear stats is a bad idea? BRDs are now doing MCH level dps with much better utility, usability and raid dps buffs. Please nerf BRD crit scaling and please buff MCH with quality-of-life features so it's not such a headache to play.

Uhm how about just buffing the MCH? Its stupid to always nerf here and nerf there instead of getting a propper balance with buffing the classes who need it.

BRD is the balance breaker so it makes sense to nerf them. If they buff MCH, we get back to the double ranged meta and casters will get ignored. SE rarely nerfs anything but there's absolutely nothing with nerfs, if they improve game balance. Otherwise they not only have to buff MCH but every other job as well, especially casters, to bring everyone in line with BRDs.
