Guy has a level 30 bard and he thinks he knows what hes talking about. Ignore him please. At level 60 bards get decent aggro but if they are with a tank with epic or willsapper or better you wont get hit much, despite all the singing/dmg/healing etc. Low delay primary 1h weapons give more aggro but they arent making bard only weapons with ratios much better than this for nothing.

Say what you want, script out some ridiculous pithy comments to prove your IQ, but bottom line youre still wrong. Odds are any group that could fight down and get this item will have a melee tank that can out-taunt a bard both before and after he/she gets this blade. Are you assuming that most people are NOT level 60 that accquire this item? Well youre wrong again. Been to CT lately? As for ignoring you, its not due to your level but what you say (and how you say it).

Ah, that is where we have had confusion. I admit I was a bit harsh in my earlier posts, (I was about to give reasons, but realized that no one probably cares, lol), and I do apologize for that. But your reply to mine failed to see where it was coming from. It had little, if nothing to do with this fine weapon. It was over some other posts by persons who had never played a bard stating that we don't draw aggro or some such. Then there was arguing back and forth about bards not being able to dish out damage. My post was more to those. With regards to 60 characters, hearing that tanks start getting much more aggro makes my day (this also has to do with the hate reducing song as well, yes?)
In closing, I meant no true disrespect to you, I assume that anyone playing on about a 50+ character earns a little respect, this isn't really an easy game (please no ridiculous statements from anyone on that). Oops, enough rambling, time for work. Happy hunting all!

Then don't post it under the comments for this weapon, dolt!
(Yeah this is out of line but damn people quit whining about class and balance issues on an item.)

The point I think people are trying to make here (but speaking from my own experience) is that at L30 you don't have the perspective to speculate on the dynamics of melee at higher levels. In particular, what I found was that levels 30-35 were the peak of my tendency to draw aggro in a group. It declined sharply from there. It seems that bards just get their high-aggro abilities earlier in their lives. Later in life the other classes catch up in a big way. Good luck trying to take aggro off a chanter at L45. The only time I get aggroed hard these days is when a charm breaks.
And as far as outdamaging other classes... if you wanted to be the baddest dude on the block in one narrow little area, why would you even play a bard to start with? I can deal fair damage as a bard, but the reason I play a bard is versatility. Bards are the Swiss Army Knife of EQ. I can get a better blade, screwdriver or pair of scissors, but it's the ability to have -all- of them in my pants pocket that makes it valuable.

Oops! I forgot that EVERYONE is a 60 bard with a warrior chum toting the epic, my bad. I apologize, my message was meant for the (I guess) 4 or 5 bards who were less than 60 (or maybe just have no tank buds sporting the epic, either one). My point was merely that those lucky 4 or 5 of us (you know who you are, hang your heads in shame, esp. you who are 60 but without epic buddies!) pull in lots of aggro. But what are the odds anyone less than 60 even reads this website? Maybe I should take my newbie self over to Gfay... the level 5's will think I'm cool and knowledgable, I'll help them kill orcs, yea! I'll post back at 60, and then you can stop ignoring me, cool?
What is that dripping noise? Sounds like... sarcasm? Hmmm...
