PVP feels equally weak as a because I can't kill anyone faster than they can kill me, nor can I outheal their damage, nor can I kite at the edge of range because if i'm in range long enough to dot them then they can still get a spell off (except melee who have no chance outdoors.)

Many people say bards are solid at 60, but that doesn't seem logical. Do I just need better weapons + haste? Is there a better strat for 1v1 pvp against casters when 1-2 spells kill me (despite resists)? Are bards just good selos bots? Don't they get wrecked indoors? Why should I keep playing my bard? I just want a class that can destroy anyone 1v1 as long as I have the skill to do so. A great player with a bad class can do well, but a great player with the best class is almost unstoppable.

Suggestions? I'm always drawn to monk, but they seem so easy to play. Considering necro, wiz, or druid too.

Suif
50 bard.
Forget about being unstoppable in indoor zones, eq classes have lists of pros and cons and a con of being a bard is you aren't as powerful in closed spaces, a class like a rogue or monk will shine in these spaces but will lose to more "outdoors" classes like wizards when put in a outdoor setting.

Bard is a fine class but rogue or monk is good as well.
