Bard PvE Support Build

As you cast abilities, you stack your bubbles in the Serenade Meter. You get two options to burn these bubbles: Serenade of Courage (attack buff), or Serenade of Salvation (AoE healing). Balancing how you use these are essential to playing a successful Bard.

This is the classic support build for Bard, designed to carry you through endgame content. Here is a sample skill build for 244 skill points – essentially an entry-level build.

Awakening: Symphonia – a huge AoE heal that provides a huge 100% HP shield. This is literally a life-saving shield that can be used during crucial moments during raids and dungeons.

Rhythm Buckshot is a fantastic counter ability. Takes some getting used to, but once you’ve mastered it becomes a crucial part of your arsenal. Rhapsody of Light is a great endgame ability that you won’t need to worry about during earlier content, though once you’ve got the skill points it’s definitely worth picking up. Combos And Mechanics

The Bard isn’t just a healer – she also provides a range of buffs and debuffs, mostly through abilities like Sound Shock and the Sacred Shock Tripod, or the Intense Tune Tripod on Heavenly Tune. Rotate through these buffs and debuffs without overlapping. This takes some practice.

Playing the Bard well is all about understanding the fight’s mechanics. Spamming abilities like you might with other classes will do something for the team, but you won’t be getting the most out of the class. Make sure that your attack buffs don’t overlap (time them), and use your Serenade of Courage song cheap Lost Ark Gold when the boss is staggered to maximize damage output from your team.
