Well as a main Bard the changes are a bit more insult to injury in this case because they actually broke them

What should have been a minor cosmetic issue regarding the change to Pitch Perfect and Wanderer's Minuet sharing the same button is now a game breaking feature in instances a Bard queueing for the 24 man/new group content really has no choice who will be joining if done without a pre-made group.

That bug now breeds toxicity amongst players further because now would they possibly compete for the weekly piece (which is a bit minor and been around since these raids) but hoping another bard isn't in the party because they have a high chance of messing up their rotation on one of the strongest songs 1/3 of our playstyle-rotation.

Then even if that wasn't just the issue - the new change which wasn't really one of the asked for features of sharing a button with Pitch Perfect and Wanderer's Minuet - also seems to have skill lag issues that mess up the rotation with Raging Stikes.

You would think that the hotfix last night would be for it, but due to the fact it requires a client update. Players now have to wait till April 26th for their busted job to be "fixed" - that is if they actually fix BOTH behaviors with the change. But who knows since a lot of that is getting drowned out by the multitude of other threads on SAM - not that I don't think they don't deserve to say anything about their job change - just meaning that it's harder for other job voices to be noticed as much.

When MCH also needs quite a bit of love too.
