Bard is broken in some ways and also people hate you becuase you can charm merchants and put them in bad places [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]. This server is not without bugs so you just have to learn to live with them but there really arnt any HUGE bugs that stops you from playing and this is as classic as it gets too. You can go try EQ live if you want to waste your money on like 1 hour of fun in the tutorial (escape to norrath) thats the only part thats fun now, the game on live is pretty ruined from most people's opinion [You must be logged in to view images.

since no one is giving you a real answer on why bards are broken, i will tell you.

There are many minor issues that aren't worth going over.

The main, game breaking issue for bard is we do not know when we fizzle. All bard songs take 3 seconds to cast. Imagine a cleric casting a 3 second heal and the heal fizzles but the spell bar continues to move and you aren't notified that you fizzled. The tank would likely die from lack of heals. This is what bards deal with. Our song will continue to cast and no effect will take place, no resist, no group buff, whatever it is you are casting. And the reason is because we aren't notified when our song fizzles ("your song ends"). It is very annoying to spend 3 seconds trying to cast a spell not knowing if you fizzled or not, especially when you are trying to snare/mez/charm a mob beating you down.

Also, we've had no word from developers whether a solve for this issue is being looked in to.
