anyone who played a bard back in this era will remember how much aggro bard songs created
i distinctly remember having to wait until the tank in the group built aggro for a good 10-15 seconds before i could even start twisting songs

Why? Because SoE lowered bards innate aggro mod a while back, and they said they did, I dont remember when, but I am sure its on castersrealm in thier patch message archives somewhere. This was a direct result of bard songs being massively powerful, and needing to be refreshed every few seconds.

Bard aggro was reduced because bard songs are refreshed every few seconds just to have the same effect as casting a normal spell once, yet each refresh of the bard's songs was treated the same way as a cast of a long duration spell as far as aggro generation. However, it might be spell/song specific rather than class based.
