Bard Limit Break? Give me a break!

[Estellios]

I also feel like if BRD was to have a DPS LB instead, it would make us far more favorable than most of the other DPS classes, mainly melee, as it is easy for us to maneuver for boss fights, and our support mechanics are extremely unique. Thus, we would start seeing full parties with mostly BRD, BLM, and SMN dps instead of any MNK or DRG.

This guy gets it. BRD gets a DPS limit break, you will never see any melee DPS again.

Went to last page after reading OP to say this and its already here.

the problem there stems from the fact normally melee do HIGHER damage to compensate for the risk... which isn't the case here by much if anything. give brd a dd lb but increase drg/mnk damage people who want "Safety" can have people who want "speed" can also have it~

there are already plenty of fights where being a melee is more trouble then it's worth tbh ESPECIALLY things like HM primals OH I JUMPED/TELEPORTED? BYE GREASED LIGHTNING! :<

Both healers down in raid? Bard Level 3 Limit break saves the day.

It's a great limit break, stop complaining.

Game is balanced around end game.

What about light parties?
What about LB1 and LB2?
I have run many times on Duty with 2 brds DPS...it sucks so much.

We all agree we need LB3 mass ress to stay BUT there are so many things wrong
The animation lock its retarded
Also the Tank LB3 last like 3 fucking seconds...who the fuck made this "supports" limit breaks...

Exactly. The DPS Limit breaks are a huge reason to bring along a Melee DPS for the risk they have to put themselves in. I've done a few Amdapor Keep runs with 2 BRDs as DPS and it really hurts not having the ability to instantly nuke one of the Demon Wall adds or some extra damage to expedite the Dragon fight.

Contd from last post:
I'm more dps minded and would prefer a dps based Limit Break or at least give brds 2 choices for a limit break depending on the situation. Say the one we have now and maybe a dps one if the situation called for it. I love my brd but I wish I could limit break with the effectiveness of mnk, drg or blm. At least they shortened the time it takes to cast swiftsong.
I remember first time I tried Rain of Death out in phase 3 beta when I got my 1.0 char back and I was disappointed with what they did for the animation. There is a saying "if it ain't broke don't fix it". They should've left RoD alone.

Bards are arguably the highest dps in the game.
Bards have extremely high burst damage (probably rivaled by BLM's, but ours lasts longer).
Bards are the most mobile dps class in the game.
Bards have the best utility in the game (song, root, slow, silence).
Bards aren't melee. Because fuck melee. <3

Give us a dps limit break and we won't need to bring any other dps classes to anything. Maybe a BLM for AoE every once in awhile.
