Bard Nerfs Offically Confirmed

I think my only gripe about brd is how easy it is. The risk versus reward just isn't there.

We DPS too hard, we get the aggro. There's the risk. Many times I steal the aggro unless I have a song going, just because of how hard I hit. It can be hell on the tank trying to steal the aggro from me, and if I get targeted, I can fold pretty fast depending on the enemy (because I THINK Bard has the lowest defense of DoW classes, but I'm not 100% sure). I think my record for getting KO'd by a non-boss enemy I grabbed the aggro from (no 1-hit KO abilities in here) was 10 seconds. That's with all my equipment up to par.

I agree that when I'm in a fight that if I start doing to much dps then I get argo

cool story guys...try using the the enemity reducing cd. Also the tanks that you ripped so much hate from all the time must have just sucked. I have a 50 brd with relic that great dps and I never saw a geared tank that's knows what their doing loose hate to a brd unless its at the beginning of a fight and they just blow all their cd's and get raped.

It's usually on cooldown. I pop it whenever I see I'm about to take the aggro from the tank, and only on the enemy mobs i don't want to take aggro from (and when the enemy is not near death. If it's near death, I'll take the aggro because it won't live that much longer). Meaning between mob group A and B, there's that moment where I can't toss it out because it's down to the last 40 seconds of cooldown.

Whiz happens all the time remember I'm working to end game. I'm not level 50. So gaining hate happens. And enemity reduction does not always work that well. If I was lvl 50 doing binding coil and that was my only concern then great, but working to end game this is a reality.
