Just another bard idea.

[SamRF]

I just wish something could be done to compensate for Bard's disadvantage in dungeons (light party content). Unless I'm mistaken, their party wide buffs are balanced for full parties, which means they will always be at a disadvantage in smaller parties when it comes to their contribution.

Would be nice if there was a way that would double Bard's party buff when they are in a light party. Perhaps a system that automatically adjusts the buff potency depending on group size. If that's impossible for the engine, perhaps an optional stance that will either double buff but only apply it to 3 random players, or simply increase personal dps at cost of the party dps buff (only with the stance on). Would perhaps be at odds with the Bard flavor but personally wouldn't mind that.

edit: kind of liking the idea of a dps stance for bards that increases personal dps but nullifies group dps buffs. It would be very handy for when you are soloing and also when you have double bard in your group.
