[QUOTE="Zardnaar, post: 9503882, member: 6716779"] Well as we all know Bards were very strong in 5E. The Lore and Eloquence bards were S tier as far as Bards go and excellent candidates for S tier overall. As per usual this list is comparing bards to bards and is front loaded towards the first ten levels of the game. Level 14 abilities will be mentioned but it's approaching theoretical territory and are really only relevant in a tie breaker type situation. A Bard with a great level 6 feature will be ranked higher than a level 14 one. S tier is the best followed by A,B,C and D. B is still a good rating. C is meh compared to better options and a D s kinda bad avoid. 2024 avoids Ds for the most part I don't think anyone will get that. Overall the base class is decent. Not tuned as high as say the base Barbarian. Bardic inspiration for example is so so without a subclass. You're still a primary caster though that's charisma based. Several spells were buffed or tweaked and some new spells were added. Tier rating. College of Dance C tier 😞 Glamour A tier. Lore A- Valor S* Tier. Very solid offerings from the Bards. Even the dance bard is still decent vs other classes it's just outclassed by ever other better Bard option imho. Overall the Glamour bard is probably the best but Valor can potentially break things depending on player skill, what levels you are and what's allowed and with multiclassing. [/QUOTE]
