I could not disagree with this more. If you do this you be stunted in a number of ways: skill points, actually playing skill, and experience playing the game. A Bard is not supposed to be rushed. A Bard is supposed to experience as many aspects of the game as possible; various zones, strategies, activities, and song combinations. To be a good bard you have to fulfill the “jack of all trades, master of most” trope. Otherwise you will fill the “plays mana and AFK’s” trope and you’ll be reviled.

A bard is supposed to experience all these things and live to tell the tale. You will be tasked with leading groups, taking charge, making split-second decisions, providing comic relief, and entertaining your group in down time.

Don’t rush this game! In many ways level 60 is the most boring part. Enjoy your time as a lowliest, make lots of friends, and most importantly, make memories to sing about.

As for you initial question, I used a Polished Granite Tomahawk from level 5 - 35! (That was pe Kunark though).

Enjoy!
