I would be happy with an EQ1 Troub.

<DIV>Since they have completely wrecked the class...I say scrap it and just give me my spells and abilities I had in EQ1. At least that Troub class wasn't BROKEN.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><IMG src="http://www.[Removed for Content].com/brotherdraks/GWB.JPG"></DIV><p>Message Edited by Draks on <span class=date_text>05-26-2006</span> <span class=time_text>02:13 PM</span>

yes the bard was my favorite toon in eqlive, next to my monk.It is a shame they didnt keep the songs the same, took skill to be a good bard, now everyone can twist songs with ease (5 concentration)<div></div>

<P>What they should do is give us instruments with short buffs on them like hex dolls, only bard only useable. Group wide and single target friend. Lasting no more than 5 mins and having a longer recast like 15 mins or so. Make the instruments do damage and up our dps when instruments are equipped. Easy solution and now the class would have diversity in itself. </P> <P>I personally would be most impressed with song weaving again. There at least I KNEW I WAS PLAYING THE GAME. /sigh but I guess we are the minority and no one listens to the minority in games. We are just thrown in the back of peoples minds. Also if the developers really cared about improving a class that has complications, they would do it without nerfing all the other clases to make it seem like they did any real thinking. Why does everyone get nerfed to cc crap when all they had to do was allow spells from enchanters to be more useful on raids and in groups. But nooooo they had to make everyone else just as lame and barely barely minisculely improve enchanters so it seemed like their abilities would has affect on raid now. </P>

I never played EQ1, but it sounds really cool to switch to instruments. Wish there was something simillar in EQ2... Imagine the RP perspective of it! :smileysurprised:</DIV>

<P>The EQ1 Bard was good only if the player was good and patient. It will cost to much money i mean time to make it that way.</P> <P>But, i think EQ1 style bard is the correct way, and adding the CHA attribute.</P>
