I do not know what Heavens Myst is, tbh.

Heavens Myst is a fucking legend, fuck off if you don't know what that is. VZTZ rep +++

But yeah, you won't kill a good bard. Only way you can counter a windstriker ranger though is to get right inside their ranged attack and if you can stay there you're golden but pretty impossible. Just run *****

First off Bard's were shit in this era on live.

Highsun=Never landed

Brusco's=Never landed

Fire and Cold Chant=Never landed

Denon's sometimes landed if someone had a poison under 80, but that only worked on caster's as that requires them to get close.

Bard's weren't good at PvP till pop when they got Disease and Poison chant. They were actually harder to kill tho because Selo's broke root and snares.

This is actually true

why wouid it be impossible aret bards the fastest?

[Potus]

Bards were really good in pvp in every EQ era I played.

I don't know where people are getting the "they sucked" crap from, it's probably the same flawed memory that claims Necros destroyed everyone.

Because you have to hit a sweet spot in between melee range and ranged attack range because they would own you with either... That means
1) you have to be faster than them to correct for their movements (easy for a bard, as per your point)
2) you have to predict their movements because the range where they can't melee and also can't bow you isn't large at all so there is little room for error if you can pell them down and chant/bruscos them down you're good but highly unlikely and I doubt even the most skilled bard could pull it off except for a very rare exception

[Kergan]

Bards were required in luclin and beyond, but not cause they killed people...just needed speed and shit.

like what?

[Colgate]

well bard melee gets absolutely raped by any damage shield, anyone with a regen buff or a troll/iksar with fungi out regens bard DoTs

bard will likely have to just run around and be obnoxious

manage to get a warrior sub-40% and he'll mightystrike and kill you with boulders in 5 seconds

good shadowknight will rape a bard

good paladin will never die

etc.
