Title: Adding a 6th box help plz Post by: Warbash on July 21, 2011, 02:57:38 pm Hi all,
I currently run War/Pal/Pal/Monk/Bard/ Clr and I am finding that the Bard dies from add aggro due to his songs, as happened to me on Kronos. I am not sure if I should boot the bard and if so what box to add? I have the choice of Ran,Monk,War,Mage,Dru,Shaman,Chanter. All of these char are already 3.0/ fg /cg with a smattering of T1 /T2 gear. Anyways I want to best DPS option for single grouping it up through T4 if possible. I took a break from before the new augs and am not sure as to my DPS option now. Thanks!

The bard will last longer later on if you really like having him along, but if you are wanting to replace him with a more resilient toon go with a monk.

They used to effect procs by 30% which would make them completely worth it but they don't do that anymore. The haste they offer is mostly mitigated by the raised haste on items. Now a bard can make a difference with pets and with the 4.0 being able to pump a wizard with mana. But other than they they just don't have much of an impact.
