A challenge. Make Bard more Bard.

[Shougun]

Need more abilities per level (for jobs) or a different job/class system - then you can make jobs more job like :P lol

Well that depends whether they add more than 6 usable songs.

but I enjoyed the looks of the FFXI BRD. AF1 and AF2 especially.

If XIV BRD went XI BRD you can have it!

Bring on ARC > RNG!!

wait a second there. I played both bard on 11 and 12 and 11's made me wanna suck on a rusty nail.

11's was SO boring. 12's could be more focused on musical skills and effects, yes, but 11's route is NOT the way to go.

NO lol

FFXI Bard was fucking boring just sing song and thats it

At least FFXIV can deal DMG sing song and help buff a bit. They need to keep it that way just better

If that's all you did, you were a bad BRD.

In endgame shit I did the following on BRD:

1) Sing songs
2) Slept adds
3) Support healed
4) Support spells (protect, shell etc)
5) Debuffed the mob
6) Pulled adds
7) DD'd if I had time

BRD was one of the busiest jobs in XI, if played right. If you were one of those BRD's who just sung a song every 2 minutes then the job was boring due to your own ineptitude.

SAM was boring too, if you just auto attacked.

I agree with you Ingolf. Jobs like white mage, red mage and bard (supporting class) is all based on how productive you are and how you play the jobs.

Yep!

They key thing with BRD though is that every role it fulfilled was supportive. I'd be happy if they gave BRD some decent curing gear too, so we could help out the WHM's more.

Funny how XIV's bard is like that rather than the pansy edwardian bard. I say our bard is very bard. Bard enough, I would say.
