Classes: The Bard

Bards - the jack of all trades. Each level is a new song and a new way to play. Handy with a weapon and able to wear decent armor, bards can hold their own in a fight. Plus, the ability to twist two to three songs without using mana gives the bard a magical ability like no other class.

What are the strengths and weaknesses of the bard? Can they solo, and if so how? How should they best contribute to the group? What is the best strategy to develop your bard? What skills and songs are the most important for you to master? What equipment should you be trying to get for your bard.

Post your strategies on how to best play and develop the bard and read, rate and comment on what others have to say.

The practice is called AFK training. Move bard to safe location before you leave (like the Arena off Lake Ratheater). Equip your instrument. Start the appropriate song for that instrument. Type /AFK Just sitting here blowing my horn, or some other appropriate message. Walk away from the keyboard and

a) watch that movie you've been wanting to see

b) have fun with your significant other

c) clean up the house

d) go to bed

or any number of other things you need to do but were too busy feeding your EQ addiction to worry about.

You see? Bards are the best class to play since they force you to balance game time with real life!
