I wish people would stop comparing a gadeteer & a bard. They are both great characters to have. The 1 "big" difference between them both that alot of people dont realize is that a gadgeteer is setup to be an aggresive character with thier gadgets while a bard is setup to be a more defensive character. Gadgeteer gadgets most have attack spells & some of the buffs bards dont have. While Bards have defensive spells such as Haste, Freeze Flesh, Freeze All. Having "both" will complement the group well and gadgeteers get strong end game while bards start to level out on strong points by the time the gadgeteer gets to where the bard got to "several levels earlier".
