bards are OP. their aoe mez is fucking ridiculous. you can train a whole zone to a bard and if he knows what he's doing he can keep the entire zone locked down with mezzes (while still twisting a song or two in) if he is competent. their dps is not amazing BY THEMSELVES. but if they are doing their CC job properly they will ALSO be charming mobs which increases the bard's dmg to quite a bit above any other class (except for a lvl 60 tstaff monk, lvl 60 rogue, or an enchanter who is charming, equipping, and hasting a backstabbing mob).
sadly most of the bards who play EQ will not ever reach this level of competence. but if you do you will wonder why you ever played any other class.
