Canni 2 is kunark era

Yeah typo. More than a few threads debating about whether 2nd version was even worth questing/buying, so guessing the difference is negligible.

...that terrible single-pulse mana song at level 32 which is barely usable since it's not an actual buff that lingers.

Tell me you've never been a good bard without telling me you've never been a good bard.

The mana you can provide a caster group even WITHOUT cantana, just pulses, is pretty immense.

Yes, if all you do is stand there and chain-cast Cassindra's Chorus of Clarity over and over, in which case your sole contribution to the group is some mana regen. You will be doing literally nothing else because it's not a buff song, it's a single pulse of 5-7 mana. No pulling, no haste song, no CC, just a glorified mana totem. That is not worthy of a spot in a group.

I love it when some imbecile comes in with the "haha ur bad at the game" and then vomits up some theoretical nonsense that nobody actually does because it isn't a functional way to play the game. But hey, if you want a bard who just stands there chain-casting mana song at all times, and you actually think that's what qualifies as a good bard, then knock yourself out.

But you're not the one who should be telling people they're bad at Everquest.

Yeah, Bards are kind of mediocre before they get Cantata.

U guys are so one dimensional. There really isn't an underpowered class just an underutilized class.


And the class that is the least leveraged? Probably clerics ppl play them like heal bots. It's so sad. Yet clerics can be really powerful workhorses.

The thing about bard in classic is you get to be 50 when Kunark drops.

Fire up the swarm and you're now in the first groups to go farm sebilis and shit.

Big difference between good and bad druids.

Bigly.

They bring almost nothing to a raid, less you have that one off that will train up or hub tag or play goaltender , but any pet class can do that. The offheals is nice but they can’t keep up. They are pointless in vp minus hosh that every fire caster can hit too. I guess in fear prob their best raid least they can charm gorillas . I don’t care what they can solo at 60, if they can do it enchanter prob can too.

Wolf charms for AoW / KT

Vyemm heals

Gore

Melee spot heals

I can go on...but a good, active druid is much more than a porting / potg bot.

Talking strictly raiding. They're basically garbage for plat farm (just plat farm via dkp).

Enchanter can do, anyone can do Same heals on vyemm, any fire caster can on gore even mage, they can't keep up on spot heals over time. I can keep going on and on too.
