Bard Best in Slot (BiS) Gearing Guide – Classic

Bards are a jack of all trades, because of this it’s generally best to just pick items that have the most overall the most stats on them. The best stats will be AC, HP, Stamina, Strength, and Dexterity. You’ll also want Instrument modifiers, Haste, and an item to pull with (see ranged). Resist items can also be useful for pulling. Some resist options are given.

Below are stats you can expect with the gear below. Your results will vary depending on which items you choose, your race, and starting stats.

If I missed a better item in any slot, feel free to let me know in Discord.
