Is a bard wrong for me?

bards that dont move while casting trying to juggle CC are really bad...even a little circle kite will cut down on dmg taken by a metric shit-ton

id say bards require the most situational awareness of any class to play well...by far

I'd still only consider myself a mediocre-to-decent bard, so hearing everyone discuss what's good or bad barding has been super helpful in getting better. I will say that playing a bard has made me much better at grouping on my other toons. Whenever I get around to rolling an enchanter I think it's going to feel like easy mode.

https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1155754690 (not me but a very good bard player here on p99) - showcases you can do a LOT in tight spaces

lmao I've watched that video a couple times now to study how he uses the aoe snare. I just hit 54 and have been excited to start using it. I still don't get how he's able to avoid getting hit while casting pbaoe songs, but I think it's just gonna be a lot more practice to get the timing and range down.

oh yeah enchanter is going to be a cinch after bard, just cant recover HP after a mistake / bad rng so gotta be prepared

range is just practice...once it clicks you're set
