No one but bards can run and cast a spell at the same time. There is no
'run + spell' animation for anyone else.

I agree that we should /petition it, but it wasn't really a case of, "Let's
fix
the Bard animation, rather than work on a different Bard issue..."

It was a blanket animation change that affected all character animations.
The
animation code for for the models is the same for all model types it's
applied
to. So, all PC's use the same 'run' animation tree. When you fix the tree
so
that the legs aren't immobile during the 'run' + 'spell' branch, you fix it
for
everyone.

It just ended up with a bad combo for us, since our animation speed is so
different from the rest of Norrath.

We should be aware that it wasn't a Bard change, it was a global change that
had
a negative impact on our animation.

P.S. I wish you guys wanted to push to have us reclassified as casters...I'd
love to drop the exp penalty for being a Hybrid....Since I fight like a
Cleric
and all...
