Regarding Melee DPS the main-thing to remember is skill/offense caps and abilities.
The bard has 225 for these and no trixy melee skill (backstab, flying kick, crits, etc). Also they lack double-attack which obviously benefits greatly from main-hand damage bonus.
Weak melee dps has never kept a bard down though. They are more a caster in plate armor than a tank/dps.
