I'm sure we can get neckbeards in here to provide math but do what will keep you happy playing til 60

This a thousand times.

Just look at the bard wiki page to get an idea of how you could put starting points into your bard to get different effects. Unless you are in a top raiding guild, chances are that you will not be maxing any of your main "bard" stats without buffs, even in Velious, which isn't even out yet.

I picked half elf and put 10 in cha, 10 in sta, and 5 in str...I think. I honestly don't remember. Will I be sad if I could have had 15 more sta compared to a bard that calculated out all the best combinations based on Velious armor stat points? Definitely not...15 sta is like maybe 125 more hp?

Furthermore, some races can wear different racial armor (I like the Mystic Koda'dal armor for bards), but again this isn't really a game breaker either.

Do what you think will let you have the most fun!

do people rly even play if they're not a half elf in plate?

wood elf bards seem to have more resist gear available to them.

Personally my Bard is Wood Elf and I put max points in Cha and left over (5 points) in Agi.
