That is just ridiculous.

A bard should always do what's best for the group/raid. If you're in the melee group, you buff the melee. If you're in the tank group providing DS, you should provide the best DS available (which means switching your epic for a brass instrument when applying Mcvaxius). If you're in the caster group, you pump mana.

In a normal group setting, in special cases like a melee-heavy group without a chanter around, then yes, you want to melee to keep the epic proc buff at all times.

But if the caster group is struggling for mana while you're meleeing on the account that you have your epic, then you're playing badly.
