For Bards in Scars of Velious we will mostly focus on AC and HP. We also want to have well rounded stats and resists. There are a lot of options in many items slots with comparable stats. Try to aim for the highest overall stats possible. We can optionally pick up some +Mana Regen and +Attack items. We also need a haste item. Lastly, we want to get instruments for every Instrument Skill type.

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.
