- [6.0] Bard Time! To be completely honest, I don't really like Bard. I mained this class throughout Heavensward but now I just don't like it. Maybe it's because I'm bad at micromanaging and I don't want to keep looking at my hotbar 24/7. But yeah hope you enjoy the video!

Bard and Dancer should have an exclusive buff that complements each other.
This needs to be the standard for how to explain a jobs basic functions. 10/10 would send to future BRDs
Very handy for someone who has basically leveled in pvp to level 80 and needs a refresh
As a future bard and a new FFXIV player these are my go to guides for classes
Quick, concise and funny to boot. Great vid!
Good video! I love these type of videos. I been leveling other jobs and these video help me understand much better on how to play them. They help me be a little bit less fail on any job! 💙💜❤ Keep up the great work!
Thank you for this. Been playing ff14 for about 2 weeks now. This is probably the best bard video that I've come across
For once, the set-up is exactly what I did.
I started as an Arcanist, and within my first few minutes of playing, I saw someone playing music in Limsa. I stopped and listened for the next two hours.
It was that moment when I knew I was hooked on this game, and it's community. I vowed that I would become a music man some day.
Same. I randomly found a group doing a concert. Starting to fill out bard as a job for when I’m past current level cap. (New player with summoner at 58, still haven’t gotten to heavensward)
2 years later but my exact sentiments. Heard someone play Through the Fire and Flames and I know I just want to be a Bard
BROO THAT IS EXACTLY MY SITUATION I STARTED AS AN ARCANIST TOO
I'm on free trial so i don t need more than lv 60 abilities, but every time i take a new job i check your guides first, they're amazing to have a preview on how to play the job
Thank you for explaining this and show your hot bar. It helps me a lot
Thanks for the awsome vid man, really helped me out figuring out the basics
Best guides on UA-cam hands down. Ty for the hard work.
This is really great! thank you ♡
Straightforward and to the point updated guide, perfect
As someone who plays ranged dps mostly I have to say that the explanations you give are really nice and tightly wrapped up.
Very good job 👏
this video help me a lot, i just come back after more than a year with out playing, i was really confuse having a lvl 90 bard and dont remembering how to play it but now i remember the how ty ^^
I love your guides
I know this video is older but probably the best Job guide I've found! Thanks for the help!
Me personally as a bard being my main, I try to use radiant finale during by burst window which is wanderers minuet, with all buffs active. And apex arrow I just use whenever I can personally i my rotation
I love your guides so much everytime me and my friends watch your guides even for classes we dont play, the next one going to be ninja , darknight?
He already did dark knight
@@swintuch1369 in shadowbringers but not endwalker
BRD really goes brrr. One of my fave jobs!
Fantastic explanations!
Ayo just saw this very cool wanted to play bard
Edit: my phone broke in the middle of this, anyways the class seems very cool but i don’t really like non magic ranged characters so i don’t know if its worth it
THANK YOU SO MUCH
I'm jumping back in after 3 years of not playing. This helped. Question though - if I use Army's Paeon then Battle Voice, does it stack the increased direct hit rate?
*makes a video titled "idiot's guide"*
*proceeds to info dump*
Sir, know your audience!
4:00 so thats where 5.x AST Divination went
I never clicked on a video so fast cause that is me I just started bard and I'm so lost but this help thank u!!
I love how you explain the skills. I miss playing my bard. do you have gear guide for bard? like melding?
All those skills and cooldowns and stats... How do u remember all that 😫. My first mmorpg and it's lookin too overwhelming, not to mention there's a dozen more classes... ughhhh
I knew there was a reason why I couldn't get my head around bard! Thank I'm less confused now.
Thanks for explaining the music notes. All I've been doing is firing off all my songs and then return to my other abilities and rinse, repeat. I haven't paid any attention to the proccing. I know this isn't part of the video but I'm level 55 now and have done the level 50 job quest but I'm not able to pick up 52 and 54 yet because I haven't made it to some storyline quest. From what I see online, I'll be in my 70s before that happens. Did I do something wrong in my leveling? All I've been doing are the job quests and MSQ with a few blue quests thrown in. No side quests at all and I'm still a private 2nd class in the company. Yet, I'm about to do the Ultimate Weapon quest.
Hey, how do you get your hotbars to look the way they do at 3:20 in the video?
Your character is so cuteeee❤
You used 1 coda right away for standard opener.
Cause then you will keep mage ballad and army codas as 2 codas and then get the 3rd one with another round of Wanderer.
OMG bard is so nice! I was also a bard in Archeage Unchained and made a lot of songs from it. I enjoy making songs than doing pvp or pve. 🤣
Did you buy a new mic? Thx for the new video
What class do you recommend, where I don't have to micromanage the hotbar?
Hello, I had a few AOE questions (coming from WoW). 1. when is it better to just aoe, skipping all single targets attacks (minus the one Dot'd up) (2+ or 3+ targets) 2. do i DOT more then one of the mobs in an aoe group, how many and do I try to keep those dots out, or just keep one set of dots up? Thank you
AOE use: every class has a different number of enemies aoe is better than single target on, and the way you figure it out is by multiplying the aoe potency until its higher than a single use of your basic ST skill. so if the ST skill is, for the same of example, 200 potency, and your aoe is 80 potency, then your aoe is better on 3+ enemies, since 80 x 2 = 160, but 80 x 3= 240. every class is calculated like this. but, if you hate math, its ok if you just use aoe on 3+ enemies regardless. dungeons are pretty forgiving about this.
2. you can use DOTs until the tank stops pulling more enemies, at which point you should swap to aoe. you do not need to upkeep the dots generally as it rarely takes more than 45 seconds to kill an enemy. its up to you though, again, its forgiving.
You will want to shoot for three or more targets for the AOE attacks to have better efficiency. And it is better to prioritize your AOE's over your dots so long as you can get three or more targets right away, otherwise maybe drop a single dot until three targets are rounded up.
Can you do ninja next!? Pls and ty
best guide if one need a simple and quick look at jobs..
❤❤❤
You use the songs in the following order:
Wanderer's Minuet
Mage's Ballad
Army's Paeon
Radiant Finale is used in the beginning along with Raging Strikes and Battle Voice (Raging Strikes => Battle Voice => Radiant Finale), and then every 2 (ish) minutes when you circled through the songs and are back to Wanderer's Minuet.
Barrage is used during WM as well.
Apex Arrow/Blast Arrow is used twice: Once during WM (provided you have a full gauge, or at least 80) while all your buffs are up, AND once during Mage's Ballad when you have at least 80 in your gauge, and preferably before you reach the 30s mark, so you have more time to fill it to 100 until you play WM again.
If everything is done correctly (as correct as it can get with a Bard), it will all line up.
whats that emote you did in 0:05 ?
i just started FFXIV last week and i chose bard as my class. it's super fun but uhhh good to know i was using battle voice WRONG lmfaooo woops!
In my opinion, this is probably the only time the bard class was extremely useful in the FF franchise.
Umm...
What? I just started a trial of this game and picked archer. I think I may be too old to play this game because I can't remember this stuff when in the middle of a fight. Guess I'll go back to Farm Sim.
It's funny how you say bard is about micromanaging, but really, I feel that the standard combo dps classes that I've played are a lot more difficult to manage. Bard lets you be handsoff, and just make you glance down to see what ogcds are up and to keep your dots/songs up every 45 seconds. While with other dps classes, I've found that there's just this process of trying to get combos right and messing them up and such that are a lot more hotbar centric.
The other DPS classes have a much more fixed rotation than BRD playing whack-a-mole with procs, thats why they said that.
@@PubstarHero Right, but missing a proc for a few seconds as a bard isn't as bad as if you press the wrong button as say ninja and you lose a mudra stack. Or you break your combo, etc.
For radiant finally you use it at the 2 min windows always so in the opening you use it with 1 charge since you only use one song, then go thought your normal rotation and then when wanderers minuet and battle voice are up again use radiant finally, since you just used wanderers you just get the third song.
Thank you!
Ninja next pleaseeeee
Feel like this class is in dire need of a redesign. I get that they probably didn't want another class witb a 1 - 2 - 3 combo, hence the straight shot mechanic, but the result is just a class where you repeatedly mash the same two buttons in the hopes that your more fun abilities will proc, not to mention the general ability bloat. When half your abilities can be assigned to a single macro with little to no loss of dps, something has gone wrong.
HELLO!!!!!
Bard has a ton of buttons
my nose is bleeding 🤧
Interesting. I picked Archer as a new player and heard it goes to Bard at lvl 30 and it looks pretty fun, I like how archer plays now but definitely will be leveling this job all the way so I can do other jobs a bit easier for leveling wiss
I've been playing bard for a year and didn't know warden's paean also prevents debuffs???
Make an idiots guide to ocean fishing please
FYI, this is not an "idiot's" guide to bard. This is like a "person who's played a lot of mmos and probably even other classes in FFXIV's" guide to bard.
Nah it says idiots
It’s not that serious
"I hate brd," "Why?" "Because it's too busy." "Oh. Well, the most stripped down version of how to do that is this." "Oh. Ty."
hold up specialist is an emote?
Huh🧐
WTF DOES ANY OF THIS MEAN???? Lol! I clicked it bc it said idiots guide but I’m a literal beginner and don’t understand
Same and im level 80 i feel like quitting the game now lol
@@JonHunt292 Hahaha I used like 6 buttons for Bard until I reached lvl 60. I just unlocked dancer and I'm loving it so far!! Goodluck john
@@ChiiBomb Im playin arcanist now hopefully I get the hang of it
@@JonHunt292 what server are you on!!
