BRD is by far not a easy class to Play well.

Doing damage with BRD? OK, quite easy.

However, doing good dmg with bard while using all the support skills for the group and the support for the tank especially? Like target swaping to the tank to apply that 20% heal/10% less dmg-buff on the tank while the Songs procc at the same time and scream to you "USE YOUR SKILL NOOOW!!!"? maintain all the dots while check for teammates TP/Mana to Play at the right time? Casting Requim at the right time, once the others started their burst Combos? Not easy at all. At least in my opinion, playing BRD well is not an easy taks.


That said, I have been in several dungeons now with bards, that don't care for the Support skills at all. Not a single buff was put on the tank during the whole dungeon. That is no good BRD.
