Full Bard?

[Rav3r]

i was thinking of making a full bard later on in stages and wanted to know can they solo
because i know they can get into partys real easy and would i need to farm cause i heard
if i just like 2 gap i will get enough sp??

Full bards CAN solo, its just there not very effective, the only euro class in my opinion that can solo well are warlock/bards or Rogue/Bards. Other than that Pure Bards are for party play, as you play a very crucial role in being the partys "mana potions" without you the party is basically regular hitting the mobs. Farming is not much of a problem for Bards, they dont require much sp, so i think a 0 gap should be sufficent enough.

Well, you used to be able to 0-1 gap with minor farming but I doubt it now...

FF bard @ 100 minus the stuff you don't need like Rave Melody, Temptation, lower the dances a tiny bit, Mana switch...that comes out about 800k.

3 gapping to 100 gives you around 750k, skill ticket gives you ~900k, so you could 2 gap and use skill ticket.

if u want a char based on bard ill add anyway cleric as a sub mastery
cos bards can solo well and fast but at mobs "green" with that sub mastery prolly ull be able to grind at same level mobs or just 1-2 lvls under urs helped from recovery division, bless and some other healing skills
