Difference between a Troubador and a Dirge?

[Taeolen]

<div>I am wanting to try a Bard class out but having a tough time deciding which one I want to play.  What seperates the Troubador from the Dirge?  Troubador is the one I'm leaning more towards atm but having a hard time really seeing what the main differences betweent he bards are.  Thanks.</div>

Bards are jacks of all trades. They have both spells and combat arts. Rougthly 50/50 split.Troubadors are stronger at augmenting spells.Dirges are better at augmenting combat abilities.I'd say that is the major difference between the two.They also have minor differences like Troubadors can Mez/charm while Dirges can Fear.<div></div>
