This is not the fault of Bard's DPS or anything else, just that they fullfill a role no other class compete with them about. It is as simple as that. The best way to "nerf" bards would be by releasing another DPS/support hybrid or a real support class.

Correct me if I am wrong.

Or give other current classes a proper off the gcd silence.
