Bards are OP?
Not in the slightest, certainly not in old world. They kill slower than Clerics and won't scratch anyone with 80+ resists. They are one of the weakest classes for indoors pvp. I never died to Bards on live, even the geared ones in PDM. I could run all the way across Dreadlands before they had my HPs in any real danger with their annoying DoT chants.
Bottom line: the game was never really balanced around these penalties. A paladin sure as shit isn't leveling 30% faster than a Monk or Necro or Druid. 30% slower maybe, and with no exp penalty.

I can confirm what this guy is saying. Anyone thinking bards are op has not been in this beta testing the class. Their songs are constantly resisted vs anyone with 80-100 mr and given that snare/stuns land way more commonly than you recall they are not going to be harassing anything worth a damn outside.
Even twisting full resists, shm buffs - cc lands often on a bard dancing around. Solo they are dead fast.
Practically the worst class inside dungeons as well.

You're in for a surprise. Did you level a bard in beta and test all the above across a range of levels?
I did - and it's not pretty. You will be CCed trying to dip in and harass way too easily regardless of your resists.
