People have far too strong of an opinion of the buffs for some reason. Yes, they are nice, but they don't add more to the group than losing an actual dps spot does. The heals do not scale AT ALL. They get worse and worse as people gear up. You get a few seconds to shine every X minutes with virtuoso - grats. I'll definitely keep a spot open in pvp or pve for that.
Bottom line: bards are not good enough buff bots to warrant a pot, not good enough healers to warrant a spot, not good enough at buffs, heals, and dps together to warrant a spot.
Chloromancers make bards look like a joke. I'm sorry if people are confused by this obvious fact.
