Bards in PVP

I needed a ranged class so Im leveling Bard, Im now to lvl 43 and just now had this idea of asking any of you who play Bard in pvp do you have fun with it and do you feel like you are a viable edition to your team in both modes.

I played bard in PvP back when I actually mained the job.

It's fun, having foes and an instant MP refresher is very useful.

Popping all your damage CDs then lining up your rotation and throwing in long shot you can dish out some SERIOUS burst on someone, and you have a jump-back through repelling shot for escaping a melee, and shadowbind to CC someone.
Not to mention the ever invaluable ranged silence.

But..outside of that..it's kinda meh. Without things like raging strikes, hawks eye+barrage there's no way you'll kill anyone unless they afk or you steal someone's kill with miserys end.

Its fun, you can have some good times on it, but I get bored of it. I'm biased though because nin4life.

Thanks for the feedback, im looking forward to try it out, even if Im just setting my team mates up for the actual kill lol

You seriously become the caster killer of your 8 man, at least that's how our premade's BRD plays it.

If master bard exiras see's this he will show you the way.

Our bard always killsteals. lol Everyone else sets up kills and he Misery's Ends them all. >_>

Also more bards need to use PvP Manasong for healers. :x

HAHA ! Gee I wonder who :p

I suck really bad at PVP but I must say I always have fun sniping that annoying BLM on the other team while playing, haha.
I just wait for them to notice me attacking them, blunt shot, then by then it's time for Misery's End and then bye-bye.

As a SMN, I eat BRDs for breakfast. Bards are more annoying than dangerous.

And really, freecasting BLMs equal BRDs in annoyance level.
