What are the types of attack rift bards do and is there a guide on these attacks and how palyers are doing them?
Im pretty new to rift and i only played a few differnet classes in the game however i never tried out the rift bard class in the game. The rift bard reminds me of the old days of playing final fantasy 2 so im pretty interested in playing one. The one concern i have is i dont know of any guides on the rift bard class and how to use them as bards i have heard can be a pain to use. Does anyone hav ea guide on the rift bards and the best ways for them to be utilized in the game. Also does anyone have information on the rift bards class.
Best answer:
Well first of all when you are using a bard you need to know that they are not your average bard like you might of played in previous games. First fo all the attacks you bard will do are going to be using weapons. They will not be int eh form of songs. Now buffs and enhancements used will work on your character and give bonuses to your weapons. Bards could actually be looked at more in terms of a rogue even though they are called bards.
Bards use spells to either help allies in the battle, or help do things to enemies such as poison and stun in the game. The bards do have tons of buffs and debuffs, but only a small amount of ways to help. A big downside to the bard class is they do not do a ton of damage in the game. Bards are like healers just without really the ability to heal players easily in the game. If you are looking for a player to help support others you should go with a healer instead of a bard. However if you love to join in big battles and want to be the player that helps buff your team mates and debuffs the opponents / mobs then a bard is perfect for you.
So in a nut shell bards are not really able to attack with songs but they do buffs and debuffs with them. Bards are also bad at healing and attack so they are not well rounded for players that want to go out and start killing everything in the game solo.
