My bard is my back up char. I play a 49 shaman. Dumdar. Well we took the
kings room the other day. With a very unblanced team. 3 shamans 1 enchanter
1 ranger 1 bard and a wizard. Well the king was up when we took the room.
With clarity and the bard singing the mana song and all 3 shamans
cnablinzing and regening hp. It was like none stop mana. I went oom
personaly 4 times in that fight and was at 60% befor I could blink. Thats
when I made a bard btw. A combo of the 3 made for quick mana and none stop
fighting.
