![]() The Bard is a fun and excellent ranged physical DPS job for players that wish to support their whole party. ![]() Practicing the rotation for the Bard at training dummies is advisable to learn how to weave the DoTs, Songs, and weapon skills together. Pitch Perfect potency with 2 Repertoire stacks changed from 250 to 220, and potency with 3 Repertoire changed from 450 to 360. Luckily, the job didn't have any errors with the skills not working properly, like with the Ninja ability errors in FFXIV Endwalker. The Bard can be rather confusing for new players and the best way to know what a skill does is by reading the tooltips in-game. This is because MB refreshes Rain of Death and can be frequently used to apply AoE damage to multiple enemies. For three or more foes, the order is MB, AP, then WM. For a single target or two enemies, the Song order is WM for 43 seconds, then cast MB for 34 seconds, and follow up with AP for 43 seconds. WM allows the damage skill Pitch Perfect to be cast, MB reduces the cooldown of the skills Bloodletter and Rain of Death, while AP reduces cast time, recast time, and auto-attack delay by 4%, all Songs lasting for 45 seconds. This was one of the major changes to Bard in FFXIV Endwalker. The additional effects now activate during the duration of the Songs. The AoE weapon skill Quick Nock should also be used when fighting numerous foes. The article mentions that when fighting multiple enemies, Burst Shot and Refulgent Arrow are replaced with the skills Ladonsbite and Shadowbite. Both Caustic Bite and Stormbite are the Bard's DoT skills that need to be maintained throughout the battle and should be applied to multiple enemies if necessary. Sidewinder now delivers an attack with a potency of 300. Empyreal Arrow potency changed from 230 to 200. ![]() Its recast time changed from 3 seconds to 1 second. The player also has a 35% chance to get the effect after every use of Burst Shot. Pitch Perfect potency with 2 Repertoire stacks changed from 250 to 220, and potency with 3 Repertoire changed from 450 to 360. If the user is not Straight Shot ready, then Barrage and Sidewinder are reversed because casting Barrage applies the "ready" proc. If the player receives the proc "Straight Shot ready" then Sidewinder > Refulgent Arrow > Barrage > Refulgent Arrow > Burst Shot > either Burst Shot or Refulgent Arrow > Empyreal Arrow and lastly, Iron Jaws should be used in that order.

The Bard has received many changes over the five expansions to the base game. The story for the Archer class in FFXIV must be completed before adventurers can advance to this musical job.
