Perhaps it’s just me, but I’m finding it kinda difficult to do same level solo questing with my bard. I find I’m not doing enough damage to the mob(s) by the time they close the distance and then start dealing damage to me. I usually come out with 1/3rd or 2/5ths of my health from a 1:1 encounter with a same level or slightly lower (1-2) level mob.

I’m wondering if anyone else had this issue with Bards? I’m in the process of leveling a Tank class from which I plan to do quest with and just save the Bard for raiding. But perhaps I’m totally missing something I should be doing that you all can point out.

P.S. – I really wish Bards had a snare of sorts. That would help immensely.
