Haven't been too interested in Lancer, but did Keen Flurry help out with Quick Nock to do another Wide Volley combo sooner?

quick knock has no impact on wide volley. 2 different combo's

but a bard will out damage an archer with paeon of war and rain of death even on single targets.

keen flurry and invigorate cannot compete with the ability to spam your 10second skills repeatedly even without comboing them. and rain of death just pwns

You have to clarify that you are talking about solo play. In a party an arc will pwn brd on single target, unless the brd is way better than the arc. The arc will gain the benefits of the bard's paeon of war, if a bard uses that at all, and the arc will have access to invigorate, blood for blood, and keen flurry on top of it. Bard trades some of arc's raw power for support skills, that is the benefit and drawback of the job. Arc is a pure dps class, Bard is a support dps class. This is one example of how classes are still viable.
