Bard

Description

Jacks of all trades, but masters of none. Bards have a unique combination of abilities, making them extremely versatile. Essentially a bard is a cross between a rogue and enchanter, yet notably they are plate wearers. The key function of the Bard is that his songs stack with all other buffs. His mana and health regeneration songs stack with other class' hp/mana regen spells, his V2 and V3 haste stacks with other class' haste spells, and many other songs stack or simply benefit the group at large. So if you're looking for a class that benefits the group he's in, has the most tools at his disposal for pulling, and is simply lots of fun to play, look no further than the Bard.
