I'm pretty sure the reason why Bards are beeing ignored in Midas is for A6S second boss mainly, not really for the little DPS difference, even though that 200 DPS CAN do the difference between getting the enrage or not, still shouldn't be that much of a problems if mechanics are executed correctly and no one dies.
Of course using a Bard can still make it through (My previous static and I made it), but why would you complicate your life so much if you can make everyones job a lot more easy?
The first 4 Alphas are pretty easy to destroy and shouldn't be a problem, the last 6 are a lot more complicated, by adding a 40% heavy on 1 orb and a 2 seconds stun, you make everyones life a LOT less complicated.
