Once you get all three chants, it's pretty silly to melee anything that can hurt you. You can do about 150 dmg per tick while taking zero dmg, plus you can easily adapt to adds. If you try to melee, you *might* be able to squeeze out some extra dmg, but it's VERY unreliable since bash can interrupt your songs, weapons miss a lot more than dots get resisted, and if you get an add you have to switch to kiting anyways. Plus, you use up a song slot or two on melee buffs, and bards have a hard enough time figuring out how to utilize their song slots as it is.
