Re: The Bard's Tale
Bard's are a powerful support unit. They can become good melee fighters, good ranged fighters, powerful spell casters. They can pick pockets (practically worthless with current patches), and work with Locks and Traps (a mere convenience).
Your problem might be that a Bard's talents don't really multiply with other Bards until the mid-levels, when there are enough instruments to go around.
But I'm surprised that two Poet's Lutes aren't paying big dividends from the very beginning. Are you playing Expert level? Monster magic resistance is much stronger on Expert level, making the Bard's usual mainstay magic item in lower difficulty games very situational.
