BRD Limit Break

[MalcolmReynolds]

My question is why didn't SE see to it that BRD be able to chose between the healing LB or the DD LB?

Yes, let's have them choose which LB they want to do. Oh, and give them the ability to tank. Oh and heal! Faceroll to win.

Being bard is tough.

I'd just like to add that most wall failures come down to bad healing. If people are avoiding the purple zones you shouldn't be wiping at that part. I have zero issue with my whm when I have regen on everyone and cast medica 2 directly before or after the bee repel and too often I see healers just trying to cure everyone.

I didn't know people used the Limit Break on the bees. In my groups we usually AOE them down or just kill the wall (healer DPS) and ignore the bees.

The first time I did AK, we just killed the bees with single target DPS, no LB. Shrug.

i hope SE can give bard an dps limit break,
We have no healing abilitys.
We have some ballad, we can't even cast raise unless you go archer.

They should give bard like XI Ranger Eagle Eye Shot would be some intressting.

It would make sense to have the SUPPORT job be able to choose between the three types of limits. Tank, heal, or damage. At least from a functionality aspect.

I get that some people seem to think that brad is already way too OP but I think this would have been the appropriate thing to do with bard and any other support jobs that may come out in the future.

And if they ever add a buff/debuff job have the limits do extended and stronger buffs or debuffs but let them choose which they would like to use. Buff or debuff.

Makes no sense to me to be quite honest, this adds some versatility for picking specific classes/jobs for dungeons, raids and so forth. Iam a bard myself and I do honestly disagree, every job has been assigned their specific Limitbreak and they all work in different situations, the bard is indeed a supportclass with their songs etc. and for that reason they should have a "supportoriented" limitbreak, one of the main reasons we do deal such great damage is due to the fact that we can move while attacking, I rather keep that than having a DPS LB. Not that iam saying that the movement while attacking is the reason we got a support Limitbreak, just saying tht it makes sense for a support to have a supportoriented limitbreak.

I think the bard lb3 is amazing, it can save a party from a full wipe!

Trust me the bard class doesn't need any more extras...

Yesterday we've done AK with DF in 30 minutes with 2 bards. The tank immediatly asked if we were new (he would have left if yes), then he rushed like crazy. I wear some toxotes, DL and crafted jewellery with materias + Ifrit weapon. The other bard had quite the same gear, and Garuda Weapon. For Demon Wall, the tank (who had relic) told us to focus the boss. When the bees came he tanked them and we easilly burned down the boss. One of the easiest and fastest AK run I had.

The only fight where "bards only" have been a problem is HM Ifrit, to burn the nails, but with good gear it might be doable. Sorry for my english.
