I think thats kinda easy, the bard is the least played class. While far from being a bad PC they tend to be harder to play because they are more a jack of all trades not excelling in any of the abilities they are given.

I had this campaign a while back in Green Ronin's Freeport where Blind Jew of the group (yes, he is legally blind and a Jew and that is his nickname) played a male elven bard named Diane. One of the most interesting characters I have ever had played in any of my games.

[Gromnir]

in our experience, bard and druid is too close to call. rl musicians sometimes feel compelled to play bards in game, and if we got some of those granola eating, birkenstock wearing, elf-lovin', earth mother types, they plays druids... but most normal folks avoid both classes.

 

Gromnir rarely sees a druid played well... which is a shame 'cause some of our most favorite quests/adventures has been designed with druids in mind.

 

HA! Good Fun!

I've seen many more Druids then Bards. But then we never played 2E, just skipped from 1E to 3.5E. A 1st level bard was something all together different in 1E.

So I take it from these serious replies that nobody else actually checked the link B)

 

Or maybe those who did realized this wasn't a serious topic

 

The Magic Chef, indeed

I'd go for a Keebler Elf/Dungeon Decorator multi-class myself, with aspirations of the Homemaker prestige class (I noticed the article left out PrCs - don't they want anyone to read it?! )

You know, if you become the DM you can be ANYTHING you want....

[pants_happy]

i prefer Horse Thief myself. perhaps a topic for the NWN2 suggestions forum?

 

i'm sure that mr. frankK and the devs would agree that a Keebler Elf would give Deekin a run for his money.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

Sad thing is the Bard and Druid are my two most chosen classes (fighter types almost never). Last group I was in was surprised I took the Druid. Why? I don

save the trees by killing the lumber jacks....

[Opus131]

In a PnP campain i would propably use bards a lot, my name and avatar is a give away.

 

However, i don't think Bards were ever given proper treatment in CRPGs, and though i do play the class rather often, i generally prefera fighter mages or pure wizards...

[Petor23]

A lot of people seem to underestimate bards...

[Sarjahurmaaja.]

I know. They have many strenghts that are just not seen in CRPGs. Just check my sig for an example.

[Petor23]

And shouldn't roleplaying actually be about roleplaying? I would think that a bard would be a good choice for roleplaying

[Sarjahurmaaja.]

Yes, especially a quadraplegic one.
