Bard damage is significantly reduced when enemies are too close/far and lose much of their auto attack damage if they are not facing the enemy.
The chance is very low. All the DRG's aresenals is heavily anti-BRD. Archer may have a little higher chance but that is depending on your CD management. Bloodbath + Hawk's Eye + Barrage will helps you recover after he did jump stun and leg sweap. Swift Cast + Stoneskin is alsy very important

Yes, I agree with Zyphione, you should try to avoid take on DRG 1 v 1.
