Maximize Bard Damage?

[Themis]

try things out. you leveled the class to 50 you should know what works to make stuff die faster. a better post would be to list what you currently do and what you could do to play better rather than walking in and asking people to tell you how to play your class.

I have to agree with this. It would help if there was some kind of official way to parse the particular set up you have, but it is (often, not always) a good way to learn what your class is capable of and what it isn't, especially (key thing, imo) with regards to your own play style. There will be an optimal way, but I find it more fun to play a role in the way that fits my style. You'll also likely get more out of the role, and you'll also be more effective at it because you aren't trying too hard to fit into the "One True Way" way of things. Find what comes naturally to you.

Also, an idea of how you do play currently does help give better advice.
