Exactly :D I got tired of chatting in 3 second bursts and working so hard. cs616 is Goodies, right? What's the name of your bard?

I quit Dramor mainly because of this server's prohibition of MacroQuest. I was all set to rewrite the bard UI with some MQ scripts which would dramatically reduce my typing time (as well as perfecting my timing and making me the most effective bard on th server!) but then I figured I'd just get banned for excessive awesomeness/cheating depending on your point of view. Maybe I should talk to Rogean and ask for an exemption, but somehow I doubt he'd go for it.

My mind is going blank for more, but any of these people will show you what a good bard can do in any situation.

Ok you mentioned 17 of them. I will give you credit for that. The rest just delete them like I said. :rolleyes: Pain in the ass.

We have all learned after playing this game for 14 years now the the "Holy Trinity" is still the best way to go. When, and if Velious ever comes out they will be top dog. And a Shaman added and a Rogue is the hot setup. I can't play a Bard worth a crap and 3/4 of the Bards on this server suck also. So as a healer I know what works and not. A Bard is not my top choise for another group member trust me on average.

I would rather have a Wizard in the group. At least they can burn down a mob if they are not AFK and save our ass or evac. Like a lot of Bards singing one song AFK. If I have a Enchanter or a Shaman in a group I will not probably not invite a Bard. Sorry. I have learned a high end Mage is pretty Bad Ass. They can kill a mob faster than the group!!

I certainly wouldn't trust you, since you've readily admitted to not having a clue how the bard class works.

SHM/BRD/DPS trios are fun as hell. Zero downtime.

In regards to the OP, our current contender for favorite server disruption has some self-awareness and compassion issues he needs to address. This is not an environment for positive development in those areas.

thread peaked at around pages 5-9 when Rojas' douche baggery was on full display

Thanks for your contribution, as always.

I think you're nuts - I would take a bard any day, in any group, always. A good bard is extremely versatile and the songs are great.

Snare, mez, regen, slow, mana regen, haste, respectable melee damage....

As an aside - those of us playing Bards and not pawning ourselves endlessly for PL platt are not playing to be the most powerful; we're playing them because they are awesome fun.

Gasp! What!?

You're not min/maxing a 14 year old game within an inch of its life to gain power in a virtual world on a single private server that had no traction in the real world even when it was the most successful game of its kind? You're playing within a community of (mostly) old friends and like-minded enthusiasts to ENJOY YOURSELF??!!

GTFO....

A+ would lol again

But seriously;

Dostarr, please seek professional help for the tragedy that has afflicted you so strongly. You might not be able to see it from your perspective, but you have severe depression and it is certainly taking a huge toll on your life, that was obvious from even 5 minutes of chatting with you on Permuh before you bought Rojas. When you had me on rageignore, I spoke with your brother while he was playing Rojas, whom I strongly urged to get you professional help. I'm not saying this to be mean, or lower your standing in the community, or to be malicious in any way, I am GENUINELY concerned for your wellbeing and want to see you happy, and I'm hoping the public nature of this post can help get it into your head that you need help. I don't give a fuck if you hate me for this, but for your own sake and the sake of your family, get some professional help.

I'm always here to chat if you need to. Feel better soon, bro.

I said Holy Trinity in OT, haha and here it is. War/Enc/Cleric base group around that and u'll have 0 problems.

Even with a bard in that situation u can max dps, pull all that good shit, i've taken lvl 40's b4 in KC cuz i knew no shit would hit the fan with me around.
