i like bard lb. when the team makes that mistake and people start dropping like flies, the healer is struggling to keep them self and the tank up, healer lb due to animation time may not be an option for them. so what do you do? bard to the rescue. my bard lb has saved groups from wipes plenty of times. need a dmg lb? have a melee in your party. aoe lb? caster. 2 bards in party? they have utility to survive. example being demon wall. the 2 bards combined don't have the dps to focus wall? well tank pulls both bees, bards focus wall, and silence bees when necessary.
i'd rather keep the party going then be like those dragoons i see who think they can save the day with a damage lb that hardly makes a dent and we wipe anyways
