I rolled a bard as my first character on p99. You can level quickly to a point where farming plat is very simple. It costs about a plat to gear a bard (basic vendor instruments). Zones you solo in, are pretty much restricted to outdoors, but it's good enough to get you to 60 if you choose to stick with it. It's also an extremely versatile class in groups that allows you to usually get a group.
Once you get to about level 40, you can go farm hill giants with reverse charming, or you can do some of the the other rare item drop camps very easy with track/aoe kiting. Like the gobby earring, see invis bracer, or the invis vs animals ring.
Fund alts, or a new main...of your choosing. Also if your reroll a necro as your new main toon, you level your bard to 50, and can sacrifice him down to 46 and relevel to 50 quickly for nice supply of essence emeralds so you can 93% rez.
