You know what they did on classic to stop bards from swarming that is still in effect on live to this day?
When a bard-DoTed enemy is moving, the song does zero damage. When the DoTed enemy stands still, it does its full damage. The Chardok thing is just horse crap

A nerf that was implemented during LoY because they added a few zones with tons of melee mobs that bards could kite in, and because it was during an era where AAs were buy able.
I think the PBAE Target limit, if the intent is to emulate what your average bear's connection could handle at the time, is set too low. 25 mobs wasn't an enormous problem. People remember having 25 mob gnoll trains in Blackburrow from your random fleeing mob.
Setting it to 50 mobs would be a more reasonable point. Chardok pulls were typically 100-140, so those wouldn't be returning. Bard swarms are often 75-100+, so they'd have to do smaller pulls.
Really though, if the Developers could, and I know this is a big if. Migrate us over to the client formerly used by the Al'Kabor server. That client would implement so many classic mechanics the server would be infinitely better off.
