Pulling/Grouping as a Bard

[Caelan]

Hey guys,

I just recently started playing with some friends. I originally started playing live around Luclin time, starting out as a Monk, and moved to bard a couple years on. I did a lot of pulling and raiding as a bard and had some good times, and so playing that char again was a natural choice.

Since I didn't play as a bard in the old days, though, I was mostly doing so with a wider set of tools- Fading Memories, etc. So I'm wondering what advice there is to be had on the mechanics of playing a bard in a group with the current set of game rules that might be unexpectedly different? Perhaps some general advice on pet peeves people have on how bards usually play in groups, so I know to do things in a better manner?

Anything that comes to mind on such would be much appreciated.
