A Bard's Tale

[Barkingturtle]

Where's the false dichotomy? Where's the false premise? You friend, are experiencing a false reality.

Reality is, everyone here is reacting to what you put out. In-game behavior aside, your posts here are extremely revealing -- and you are not exposed as some high-thinking moral logician -- you are being exposed as a self-centered, self-serving practitioner of denial. I genuinely feel pity for you, because this is only a game -- and yet here you are standing on your head to justify your greed.

Here's an interesting aside: where are your satisfied customers to defend you? Seems to me they might be ashamed of your behavior. Seems to me you should be, too. Shame on you.

I used to hate p99 bards too, because they were all lame slackers. Then I grouped with Astuce in Sebilis and my jaw dropped. This was one fuckin solid bard. He made the crawl so smoth and easy, pulling like a superstars, twisting 4 songs, just being crazy good and great addition to the group. I have to say I was impressed and it changed my opinion on bards. Good bard is gold for any group. I made bard alt after that experience, because I realized I need to learn more about the class I hated the most of them all. He is now lvl 18 and super fun to play. I love wielding my BoH + Symphonic Saber combo (he is spoiled lil twink lol) and I really like to group. Have not done much kiting yet, guess I will get into that later.

See ya all in OT lol

This is how all bards should play. I have too much fun in groups to run around in circles pissing off other players.

first of all, if you post a thread titled "A Bard's Tale" I am fairly sure you are mandated to /roleplay "Lights a bowl of Shire leaf" before you actually start in on said tale.

Second of all, nerf bards.

So anyone mind if I create a bard and just train Rojas till he flips out and cuts himself irl?

I am typically very very sensible, subject to logic and listening to what people have to say without simple-mindedly dismissing it,

So far all you have done is spout out rants at everyone who disagrees with you, and childishly accused everyone else of making you a punk. Truth is you're just a bitch. You ruined your own rep by being a jackass. The only hope for you now is to reroll. Don't be such a cunt this time around.

If you want to see some awesome bards look to any of these (I might have forgotten some and did not include alts or people who did not level the character originally): Fauss, Astuce, Arrisard, Yibz, Ennio, Llaile, Lavarian, Deajay, Voski, Franswa, Halfelf, Retus, Capi, Dalven, Stefen, Giegue, and Culprit.

My mind is going blank for more, but any of these people will show you what a good bard can do in any situation.

Dunno if you're going to convince anyone who isn't already convinced. I think it really comes down to small minds thinking that if you're not really good at one thing then you're a wasted group spot.

OP is just a bad person.

TTD.

Need more Rojas.

Ok you mentioned 17 of them. I will give you credit for that. The rest just delete them like I said. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Pain in the ass.

We have all learned after playing this game for 14 years now the the "Holy Trinity" is still the best way to go. When, and if Velious ever comes out they will be top dog. And a Shaman added and a Rogue is the hot setup. I can't play a Bard worth a crap and 3/4 of the Bards on this server suck also. So as a healer I know what works and not. A Bard is not my top choise for another group member trust me on average.

I would rather have a Wizard in the group. At least they can burn down a mob if they are not AFK and save our ass or evac. Like a lot of Bards singing one song AFK. If I have a Enchanter or a Shaman in a group I will not probably not invite a Bard. Sorry. I have learned a high end Mage is pretty Bad Ass. They can kill a mob faster than the group!!
