Bard

Bard is one of the classes that can be selected in Elder Tale.

Overview
The Bard can only wear leather armor and is limited to using short swords, bows and other light weapons or instruments. However, unlike other weapon-based classes, the Bard has the unique ability to use Song Magic, which allows him/her to tremendously increase his/her allies' combat prowess. In particular, the Bard has support songs that grant continuous buffs until cancelled and that are ranked substantially above an enchanter. There is a great variety of songs in the skill set, each very powerful. However, the Bard's own combat prowess is not very high and doesn't get a lot of credit, resulting in very few players choosing the class. High-level bards learn up to 15 songs. Nonetheless, they can activate 2 of them simultaneously. Since the casting time is very long, a long-term battle strategy must be in placed, making this class very challenging to master.
