thats bullshit, with grpspec i killed casters easy, + scouts easy pure melee, some hunters aswellanioal said:battlebards are a waste of time tbh. they died in pains when ToA was introduced.
given the current rvr status, pretty much any class you will meet in rvr will kill you.

While the quickcap and AF on the shield is ok, the rest is crap. The heal proc goes of if you hit an enemy and bards don't get shield spec, so that'll never happen.
Perhaps a crafted shield with some charge/reactive is better?
The gem is OKish, but i prefered the DS one you used in another template.
Eerie has such great utility, it's hard to drop that as well.
The ring is poo!
5 more str for a bard, what's that? When i tried aug str 4 on my skald, i didn't even noticed any difference from aug str 3, so i quickly went back to 3. I also get more WS per point in str than a bard.
I used a template with only 17 str cap on my skald for a long time and did just fine.
Have you tried with GSV? Half decent utility and extra melee resists! :O
Dunno what the prices for the 1.85 armour is like on hib, but i got some for my zerker that didn't cost that much.
If you can get that, that's 5 str cap on leggings, 5 quick or 40 hit cap on sleeves and 5 con cap on boots.
