Oh, this is just too funny. A bard that actually knows their class - and
we are OVERPOWERED? hahaha
This translates to - "I want MY class to kick every other classes butt -
therefore - they must be overpowered"
Sounds like Mr. Ranger here relies on a few techniques, mainly his bow -
and doesn't think it's fair he might have to rethink his stragtegy and
tactics.
