I'm not that unimaginativ. Let me give a few nice examples how a low level bard might have fun during an evening:- combat: Sing, shoot a few arrows.- save a buddy who went down with a potion or a cure spell because you don't have anything else to do (and the big bad fighter over there does not look like your sparringspartner)- steal the heart of a nice lady... who happens to know something important. James Bond was a bard.- Sit back with 0 hp and let your Dancing lights hop after the invisible flying wizard with fireballs who conveniently stays out of the reach of your cleric buddies invis purge. Watch the groups archers turn the wiz into a flying porcupine.- Go to a drinking tour through town and find out all the slimy details about persons who you might meet or have met already.- sneak up behind your buddy the rogue when he's disarming a trap and shout BOOHYA!- Get a new job for your group when noone else finds one.- do some wetwork. Coup de Grace needs no sneak attack. A greataxe does the job as well.- Sure, any multiclass can tumble singingwise into flanking position and waste the BBEG fighter with a raging sneak attack when your scimitar gives you a critical... but can they do it with style?- Zorro was a bard. - Conan was no bard. He had one. And he needed him <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />- Invent a new personality... make some use of disguise, it's fun.- Where do you go to when no oracle and no commune gives you the answer you need? Pay the bard enough that he can spend the night in the local brothel and he'll have your answer.- Have you ever dragged an unconscious buddy over the edge of a 40 ft chasm and have him land on you because upstairs a wizard shot his last fireball at the edge, thinking you climbed down? Style, buddy. Panache and fun. Bard class is about both, not about rules and dice and kill'em all spells <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/laugh.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" />That's why I love the class.</blockquote>
