Bravely Default 2 Bard Job Overview
In Bravely Default 2 Bard is not a terrible class, but it has two main problems holding it back.
First, in most battles where you’d want to boost your stats, you’re going to be either constantly healing or reserving your MP for healing, meaning you’d need a second support character to take care of all of your stat buffing, which would dramatically lower your damage output.
Second, by the time MP is no longer an issue, you’ll have a mastered Spiritmaster which will have Purebringer going off every round, purging all of your stat buffs. As a result, it’s hard to find room for a Bard in most parties. Epic Group-Cast is pretty good, though.
