Bard does not suck!

Sliding party members all over the place and the other powers don't strike me as particularly bard like, but they are certainly very powerful.

I don't like the bard all that much. It's not a power thing, it's just that to me the bard concept doesn't seem to be represented effectively by the rules: I suffer a crunch-fluff disjunction whenever I read through them.
 



The many mockery-based bard powers of the cunning build matches Zil gnomes perfectly. I can so imagine a Zil gnome staying behind a warforge fighter talking trash at the enemy.
 


Slidin' allies and enemies all day long.

I love my slip-sliding bard. He has all of the bard powers that moves allies and/or enemies around. My bard is like Bugs Bunny from the five minute mark of this video:

(Move the slider to the 5:11 mark. If the YouTube link dies, search Google Video for "bugs bunny hillbilly hare".)

Whirl, whirl. Twist and Twirl.
Jump all around like a flying squirrel
Now don't you cuss and don't you swear.
Come right out and form a square.


Bugs Bunny is an epic bard.

Oh, and the 4th ed Bard has been nerfed already! You see, the 6th level utility spell Allegro didn't used to have the line "Target: You and each ally in burst" in the preview. I was sliding everyone around me when I was using this power. :) Good times. :cool:

I grew up watching these cartoons but the neurons failed to make a connection until you pointed it out. Brilliant! :D

As for vicious remarks for the similarly named At-Will ability...

For a killing blow:

The Sixth Sense
