It's still not as cool as a night elf mohawk though.

The Epic Pattern for the Tinfoil Hat was way funnier... :(

I want a bard class... :ow:

It would be like a mix between a rogue and a shaman. Buffs + melee combat. It would be sweet! Come on!

...

>_>

At least I think so...

I'm actually surprised they don't have a Bard class.

I remember back in the day playing a SSSRPG (Small Singleplayer Selfcontained RPG :-D) on my old Apple IIe called "The Bard's Tale (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bard%27s_Tale_%281985%29)" and your band of 6 characters *had* to include a Bard.

Oblivion has a Bard and I think Everquest does too. But both of those games have over a dozen classes (Oblivion has virtually unlimited classes since you can create custom classes) but WoW only has 9 classes so they're a bit more limited. The WoW classes tend to be fairly general whereas other games the classes can be much more specific.

I have The Bard's Tale for my PS2. By far the funniest game I have ever played. If you haven't tried it, go find find it.

EQ2 does not merely have bards..nono..there are multiple types of bards. Troubadours.. Dirges (more direct damage and debuffs..)

I have one of each.. :/ There's usually a "good and evil" for each class

LoTR:O has a bard class too, don't they?

They have a minstrel class. It is the main healer.
