It's because they are on the naturalist damage table. Minstrels aren't massively damaging and they're at least on the rogue table, bards have it even worse.Originally posted by sickofit...
And why is that? Because 99% of the bards out there are cookie cutter drumwhores, ignoring weapon spec completely.
If you encountered a l50 armsman with 5 in slash and 2 in polearms... how much damage would he do?

AE mez, fighter purges, bard gets a beating. Doh!Originally posted by sickofit...
Just like a stealther you are basically able to pick your targets.
Enemy group, ae mez, take out their caster while the others watch - snotty emote - and off you go at mach4.

PvE solo, bard could well be better than a skald. Longer killtime but lower downtime. If compared in 1v1 combat, skald would prevail. Lowest weapon spec a skald will have is 44. Some templates go as high as 50. 30 something in weapon does not make a melee character. Bard is not a tank. Then again, according to Mythic, neither is skald.
Utility wise, skald is inferior where both mistrell and bard shine with their power and endurance chants.

Not really the same thing. Also it doesn't stop people spotting you and chasing you down, stealth does.

im sure i heard that minstrel's are geting nerfed in a upcoming patch?
this true?
It took a skald that long to kill you? Odd... I can typically kill a bard in about 30 seconds (dd, dd, mez, wait 15 secs, dd, dd, stun, melee for 15 secs, dd, dd - bard is usually pretty dead by now ). Skalds I try to avoid fighting.Originally posted by old.job
I've dueled a Skald with my Bard and I was hitting him much harder than he was me, buttt... he just insta-stuned me healed and carried on, it took 2 mins but he wore me down
