BRD Advice!? Help me not suck :)
Cure potency is a great boon if you're in a small group or duoing a lot.

(and a small debuff set) I fish Sweepers and bluffalo. If you're using utsusemi you should have a haste and fastcast set for it. If I'm subbing mage I'd still have it on me for spells like Raise and Stoneskin. Anything else? Speaking of cure potency...
Other than Surya's +2 Augur gloves What other pieces are there? I was thinking about making an MKE cure potency hat.

Lullaby recast 5/5 Nightingale 5/5 Troubador 5/5 That's what I have and a brd not using nightingale and troubador just...isn't a brd imo. EDIT: I like whm sub, can haste after i march x2 ^^b Cerberus.Wolfshadow

Would probably be your ideal buff set for things that havent capped out already like Minuet V etc, if you care enough/have the inventory space. Obviously you'd replace any necessary pieces with any that would enhance the song specifically like the +1 to Scherzo on the af3+2 feet. Chances are though that you never will be lugging around this much gear because 90% of the time you're playing capped marches, which in that case you'd just use anything that extends song duration. I'm surprised nobody has mentioned melee bard. Evisceration is awesome and you have access to Aeolian... just sayin'.
It's not so much that Night and Troub are awesome...
It's more that the other 2 songs are terrible lol. Cerberus.Wolfshadow

SOOOO overkill lol. Bahamut.Aeronis said: Shiva.Flionheart said: Oh ***yeah. I guess I'll work on those. Cure IV isn't great, but it's still nice. I'm hoping that BRD will get a cure song lol.

Cerberus.Wolfshadow said: Shiva.Msthief said: I'm surprised nobody has mentioned melee bard. Evisceration is awesome and you have access to Aeolian... just sayin'. Yeah, as said somewhere else bard has access to some really interesting pieces like Haidate and Hecatomb gear. With a good amount of work, it could be neat. Shiva.Flionheart said: Also I'm 99% sure Scherzo caps at 34% I saw something somewhere where they had 716 combined skill or something and Scherzo was reducing 1k needles by 42% or something like that, but who knows what they could have been doing wrong (wearing PDT gear or something, maybe) Still, I think it would be useful to create a +skill set for buffs, considering maybe in the future more buffs will be released which don't cap out immediately, etc. Oh, do the Carol IIs cap? Also, thanks for the advice everyone! Bismarck.Josiahfk said: Carbuncle.Asymptotic said: Greetings! After spending 5 hours slowly poking my way from BRD16 to BRD30, I was able to (In less time) sand-sweep my way to 77***. BRD is my next job to 90, and it is my desire to devote full attention to it Thanks! Good luck I duoed Sippoy last night (2x actually, once to sell the win/drops, once for my Matinee, lol), much to the chagrin of the server migrants who were attempting to camp it and apparently didn't know it spawns at *exactly* 3:00 game time, lol. I went like 1/10 on the belt not counting the times the local xp party cfh'd it with about half blued. I hope you have better luck.
Schelen-whatever is a near-100% drop in my experience if you don't already have one.

Gross on the belt, but at least the Schlen drops from ketea, which i will likely get a pop for while getting Cithara :) Hey Asymp, off topic but, you can yell at me if you need any BRD advice, or help with (attaining) BRD gear. I'd be happy to help you whenever I'm on and not busy.
Something like this for TP, probably for melee bard that would be easily obtainable. Can easily change the Felibre's for another Kila+2 if you don't need the benefits of it. I love the game nowadays, lol.
I decided I wanted Byakko's Haidate today after reading through stuff, so I decided to go up and get a pair. 1.5 hours of killing Aura Statues on DNC/THF + 5 minutes of changing to DNC/NIN + 2 Groundskeepers killed (although my friend was killing GKs for part of while I was farming Aura Statues) + 1 Despot + Aura Statue aggro while some JP looked on waiting for me to die to claim (I didn't) + 10 minutes of getting lost in Sky while another friend came out on THF + 5 minutes of killing Byakko === Byakko's Haidate |
