I know Bards have many different options for leveling. They can Charm, Fear, Swarm, DD Kite etc. I guess the safest / most reliable "melee" play style of Bard would be to Fear + Snare. Is that correct?

If so ... what do you think the killing speed would be on a Bard who hunted that way? Snaring and Fearing the target, then following behind and meleeing and it down?

I'm sure it's not as fast of a kill compared to another melees kill speed. But at the same time, a Bard wouldn't have any downtime between kills, right?

So I wonder how close it would actually be? For example, if a Monk / War can kill something in 2-3 minutes, but then has 4-5 minutes of downtime regening. Would it really be faster over all compared to a Bard fear killing that takes 4-5 minutes to kill something, but has 0 downtime?

Of course these are just made of numbers because I don't know actual times, I'm just talking more about the method of killing, relative to other classes.

I'd love to hear your opinion of that though =).
