Is bard dps the weakest?

[Lecreuset]

You're talking as if all the fights are just plain tank and spank. And even if that were the case I'm still confident how good Bard dps is.. I wish bard had more support abilities than just the songs and the -10% damage dealt debuff. AoE dps though expensive(though you have invigorate from lancer cross) on the TP is pretty amazing. Those Plumes in Garuda hard mode don't stand a chance

If you still have any complains then just play those other classes that you think are so good. Problem solved

I can't believe all of you guys taking this guy as if he is serious after 8 pages of playing the devil's advocate. anyone who has stuck with the class to 50 knows that bard is a good damage dealer, and even if we weren't we still have songs and the ability to apply enemy spell casting speed slow and enemy damage reduction. stop playing into this troll's hands.

Potions are essentially worthless. You can't drink them fast enough to actually recover MP at a rate that will affect anything.
