How do I PVP well as a bard?

[zanderklocke]

I come from the other server, but I figured this would be the best place to post this question.

I was messing around with my guild doing some 4 v 5 pvp (only had 9 people), and I really had no idea what to do. I was basically running in circles to be defensive playing selos and resist songs.

However, if I want to play offensively as a bard, what are some of the best songs to use. I was trying a bunch of things including single target snare, song of highsun, the level 59 AE/stun, AE fear, and sometimes just running up and attack with two stun proc weapons. Also there's the ability to just kite someone, but if their resists were too high and it was a confined space, it didn't go so well. It seemed like these strategies might work well if I were fighting one other person, but with multiple people I had no idea what to do.

Any advice or tips?

Ur highsun and the 59 poison stun whatever its called

Single target dots

Tha dirge nuke for harmtouchesque finishes

Not a bard tho

Yeah I kept getting resisted on the highsun, 59 poison stun, and single target dots. The other group did have a bard too, so that was probably part of the problem.

Wait - highsun gets resisted on blue lol?

Apparently it does, although I've heard it doesn't get resisted on red. I watched it get resisted 3 times in a row yesterday, and I'm not talking about the song not being able to be used at night. The other group had a bard who was playing resists though; aren't resist mechanics different on red?

blue server confirmed better and more meaningful pvp than red99

wtb blue's pvp code, sounds pretty good

I was always under the impression that Red99 was essentially Blue99 with pvp activated...

Guards assist on pvp on Blue as well.

It was hilarious to see guards beat up people in Freeport.

Yea, blue resists are 10x better than red. I honestly don't use highsun all that much, unless I'm dealing with mages or people on walls. I like to get up in their face and melee/denons. I also snare and use nukes when they try to run.

Pls don't advise people on pvp, you have almost the same gear as Tune yet he's a real boy while your just a wooden ass puppet.
