I meant single grouping experiences with "my daily experiences", I wasn't totally clear on that. In 6-man exp. groups we kick ass, no matter how Thott's numbers seem to stack up.

But, I disagree on raid situations. Most guilds consider 1 Bard "needed" for OOS. Some guilds consider 1 Bard (OOS) plus one 60 Bard per tank group needed (puretone + damage shields). Depending on your target, that could be 1 extra Bard or several, depending how many tanks are rotating.

Well Dark you wouldn't being experiencing anything if you weren't on the
raid. And if you weren't on the raid, the raid wouldn't be noticing
anything different either. You need, "need" not want, 1 bard on a raid.
Any more bards would be better replaced by another class.

I'm in total agreement. I can't speak for solo play, but in group play
we simply kick ass. Even on raids, with the right guild that knows how
to use us, we're no slouches. Thott throws out a lot of numbers about
how we don't scale well as we level, but somehow his analysis doesn't
mirror my experiences on a daily basis.

Hopefully VI is just looking at "stacking issues" and not anything more
grand. :)
