2. Bellow knocking player back giving us a high chance to interrupt casters when combined with our melee.
3. Selo's breaking root/snare, allowing us to stay on casters and away from people beating our soft asses down.
I don't understand the first part. What are you even talking about? Mez push? Crission's pixie strike does push and does more than just stun (it mezzes a target for about 18 seconds), and yes it does debuff MR. If someone breaks mez with a dot, well... that's classic.

The second ability has already been addressed thoroughly in another thread. Also, mez interrupts spells too. Just saying.

The third ability isn't that gamebreaking at all. Past level 22 you get a self dispell, plus selo's doesn't work in dungeons, and also in classic root/snare almost never landed at high levels.

I think that having a ridiculously overpowered AE mez is better than having the latter two abilities. If anything Bards are more powerful in pvp on this server.

edited to be nicer.
