What type of bard to create to help my sorcerer and wizard

[Lucktar]

I've got a level 48 DE Sorc, and a am working on leveling a halfling wizard.

I want to create a bard to hunt with the group, to provide song of power for them.

Considering I have a sorcerer in the group who can open with grasp of graves seems like the melee bard will have any easy time.

What type of bard would you recommend?

I'd also like this character to be able to carry lots of loot, so larger race would be helpful. Looking at the guides possibly half-krov polearm bard?

What type of bard would be good if I created a human or giantman bard?

Any input would be appreciated.

Go pole until 30 then pure all the way. I play a pure bard/ wiz duo. Only issue is getting the wizard kill credit and wiz juice generation is slow because you kill things so fast.

Just bolt first with the wizard because bolts never kill shit anymore.

since you already have two pures maybe go TWC?

You would recommend TWC, as opposed to pole arm?

If so what race considering I'm looking towards a larger race to increase carrying capacity.

twc is more fun polearm is rough until higher lvls due to RT

but you have until lvl 20 to decide i suppose i think elves are good for polearm and twc

halberd hits decent for a pole and is slightly quicker than a lance. while growing into agi/dex( I went elf for a polearm bard for that dex).. If he's group hunting it he doesn't need all the stopping power. TWC would be a struggle in terms of tps imho.

I enjoyed UAC as a bard, switched to that at 25 because polearm was slow and boring. UAC with 30 ranks in mstrike was working better overall until I hit 35 when I picked up Tonis.

hunting alone or group hunts? lots of people talk about how cool they are.. but when I hunt with one... they seem to only plink for little damage... I guess maybe they are being nice... and not using 1035? or mstrike?
