Idea for a 2 bard group

heres what i was thinking.

Have one bard hte cookie cutter spec more or less, 43 nurt, 47 music, 16 reg, rest weap

Then the other 43 nurt 25 weap, 42 reg, rest music.

Notice second bard has no ae mess.

Basically the bard that can mess always plays end. The heal/tank bard plays speed.

Heres the benifits:
end song always playing (can run at speed 6 to prevent getting taken from behind by mids)
since end song always running, no (song is interupted crap)
second bard can do half ass dmg but can heal well, and if first bard dies, second can start up end song
2 people who can ae lul the casters/healers (thus 5 sec ae lul)
2 people who can cure mess

problems with this that i've thought of:
while 2nd bard is a great healer, they have no MOC, no spread/insta heals and no druid spec buffs, so why not a druid instead?

my idea/arguement to counter problem:
get TL to whine for MOC as bard is a healing class (probably not gonna happen but we can pray)

just remember how important end song is. I cant count the number of times I've died with the bard and the whole group goes down hill (thanks to no end) Whist druids can res bards to get end song again, we can always expect druids to have the mana or not be in combat to res the bard.

all and all i think it might work but no reg bards out there to give it a go.

ideas?

My bro plays a bard called bard.

Ive yet to see any tank without PF beat him.

Very frustrating to duel him to say the least. Has embarressed a few faces.

What i mean is, battle bard spec is nothing, for example, knowing how to play your class to your advantage is everything.

a perfect plan is never as good as on paper

sounds ok, but u forget that both albs and mids can run around with speed song 6 aswell m8, albs can have mincer with mach 5 and a paladin running end chant, mids can have skald with mach 5 and a shaman in grp with end buffs.

Sounds ok tbh, but think most peeps would prefer a decent bard that could mezz and just have another druid in grp rather then another bard.

Tried battle bard spec several different ways and it simply does not work sufficiently enough to warrant a spot in a group.

A bard without an instrument in his hands is about as much use as a chocolate teapot.

imho, any bard with weapon spec past that needed for taunt/detaunt is a waste of spec points better spent in speccing to his/her strengths.
