Yes, bards are op and they will be nerfed, especially in 3.2
Whereas mages aren't useless. Their damage has increased very much (if you understand how to balance your stats). The only real problem is that their AoE-capabilities have been reduced.

Mages only get nerfed next patch, so if you hate it now then....

Bards are op and they ruin pvp. Devs might as well just removed all CCs from the game instead of creating that piece of [I Have a Potty Mouth] of a class that doesn't require any skills.

If it makes you feel better, a Bard with skills outmatches two bards without skills :roll:

Whats the point of a class against whom CC doesnt work (unless you spam 2 ccs in within 2 seconds and we all know all classes can do this with ease right :roll: ), with double HP, most skills are passive and doesnt even require to have your target selected nor being in melee range. That class was made to suit lazy players but problem is it's op and doesnt require nearly as much skills as other classes. Oh and they reduce healing to the point martyr salvation and marriage snack heals for 0 even when out of combat. Ridiculous.

Mages can kill Bards pretty easily. And Scouts can kill Mages easily. And Bards can kill Scouts easily. It's all a game of rock/paper/scissors. :P

Bards just seem overpowered because 1) Non-bards aren't familiar with bard mechanics yet and 2) Only power-leveler bards have made it to 51 so far. Just give it a month or two. :)
