if bards are so shit, why did you go through the trouble of getting the epic lol

You should have seen Tupakk's macros going through City of Mist on his way up. With every song twist he'd spam a line of song lyrics in group chat.

Never seen it before, never seen it since. Probably because its bad.

This is the reason for the massive competitive gap

Done from the correct perspective (casual warrior with too much free time).

A Tier
Warrior - xp cheap tank, decent dps, no buttons to press so plenty of time to boss group mates around and alt tab to forums.
Wizard - no useful spells besides root, as such insane synergy with warrior to ensure best tank keeps tanking.
Cleric - Pay these to port you back from home after a 'resupply' death. Don't bother grouping with them.

B Tier
Druid - Turns you into a dog. Casts str, regen and DS on warrior. Occasionally helps to break camp. Otherwise does nothing. Invite one 2/3rd of your level to make you feel OP.
Enchanter - Not for groups, but turns you into a dog. Has good haste, so will always cap you even with a bad worn item. Would be D if it didn't dog.

Tier C
Necromancer - 2 dps characters and a healer in one. Sounds good, but synergises with rangers surprisingly well at higher level so deserves shame by association.
Shaman - like a druid but makes you get hit less often, instead of hurting things when you get hit so clearly worse.
Bard - this character is all over the place. Only gets as high as Tier C because it can roleplay your squire singing your praises.

Tier D
Paladins and Shadowknights like a worse warrior. Chose to take weak caster abilities instead of strong left arm.
Mage - a wizard and a warrior mixed together. Some kind of hybrid abomination which shouldn't exist.
Rogues - Warriors which are admitted taunt button is barely worth having. Do a crip on demand to the butt, instead of raging out at low hp. Gets things by stealth instead of force. Dweeb energy.


Z tier:
Monk, Ranger - you but better. Boo.

I stand corrected.

[BlackBellamy]

These categories are wrong. There is no S tier or B or F tier. There are no tiers.

There is the Shaman.

And then there are other classes that complement the Shaman. Some are more useful than others. For example, Necromancers; very useful. Clerics? Not so much. But the Shaman does not discriminate, with his awesome powers he can bring value to any other Shaman support class.

[Jimjam]

Fine, I'll bump up shamans to B, but only ones with torpor in Velious for creating fake warrior soloing dragons in WW screenshots.

[Ratchet51]

This Paladin hate threat has me thoroughly disgusted, and I rebuke all of you in the name of Tunare.
