If a bard is ruining your day and you can simply go 1-2 zones away to get the same XP, why not do it? It's no different then going into a dungeon and calling out for a CC and finding out everything is camped and telling your group "Hey guys lets go check out "X" dungeon instead cuz this one is camped to hell and back". If the bard truly is taking 90% of the zone, ya I fully agree he/she is playing the role of a d-bag. Petition him/her if you feel the need and move on for the time being. Quote:
Done with this failed thread for the time being. Clearly its a split decision on bards swarming judging by the various opinions. Can't wait for the next thread in a couple days! Someone go swarm LOIO or OT asap! | ||||

Does that level 50 Bard selling PL services really have the "right" to an entire zone that could support 20 level appropriate Players simply because its one if the zones Bards think of as theirs? Its funny... Im betting that its not the hybrid penalty that keeps Bards from from finding groups but the resentment the community feels at how selfish some/many Bards choose to act. I know for a fact that a Bard can train/swarm in a very small area.. small enough that 98% of these complaints would go away. And as people have pointed out, Bards have the tools at their disposal to solo almost as effectively in other much less disruptive ways.. charm chaining etc. Yes, you ARE capable if eating only 6 of the 24 free doughnuts that management put out. There are classes that have it x100 worse than a Bard in trying to find XP.. right of convenience is not a valid argument in ignoring how your actions affect others around you. There are Players that would kill every merchant and quest-giver in a zone for the XP if it was possible and make the exact same claim about their need to "XP" and how the next 1-2 zones over also have merchants, just go there. | |||

the reason bards have a hard time finding grps is that most bards don't know how to play their toon in a grp. they think their role is sing mana song and /assist attack. if thats all they do they are not worth their class hybrid penalty.
in other words, the reason that some bards can't find grps is that many bards suck at actually playing. of course, one of the reasons they suck at playing is that they spent the first 50 levels of their char being PLd or swarming. playing a bard in a group is a totally different game. a good bard is constantly twisting, mezzing, charming, swapping instruments and swapping targets...oh, and you get to be puller and snarer much of the time as well. Many bards either don't know how or don't want to play that game. if you are a good bard you will very easily be noticed and find plenty of good groups. | ||
