1. Bard does not have any weapons (Mirage or others) in Cloacked Ascendancy store. https://imgur.com/a/thLzHr2 2. Animation after singing a song is quite a challange ... you spend time 'singing' and after you have to wait 1-2 seconds to cast your encounters
I play left-handed and use the arrow keys to move. Going into performance mode overrides these with octave and half-step controls. Remapping these to movement doesn't work. Every time I go into performance mode I'm locked in place. Won't be able to play this class in higher content.
I have issues performing songs when I'm disguised, e.g. Vanrakdoom (see pic) and during one of the first tasks in Undermountain (Xanathar and Cult disguise). This was reported earlier and now I had the same experience in Vanrakdoom.
All Bard heals/buffs do NOT work outside of party. Making the Bard seem very alone in open world zone content Bard Weapons M11 aren't accessible Shelter Etude - isn't working as intended - doesn't apply if you cast it again as tooltip implies Flourish - trigger for it seems wacky as double press of the button is needed to apply the effect Warding Carol - doesn't remove any negative effects from any player anymore. It use to in preview. The only place it removes negative effects are Demogorgon.. (please consider how it worked prior) Gambler Feat: - Heal Mag increased/dependent on the amount of Gambler stacks you have - Allow Gambler's to be used in conjuction with Delayed Play (having 2 Gambler's on at once) Reprise Carol: - Critical Severity - I think can be changed to 4% increase damage per stack (20% at max) making it a comparable to Storyteller's Feat
As it stands, the Gambler's feat, while it looks INCREDIBLE, it's actually not as good as it look. I think some simple changes could prove useful for the class.

Hello @nitocris83 and @sgrantdev Here I write feedbacks and bugs only for BARD HEALER
1)The major issue regarding performance mechanic: after played a song, you have 1.5 seconds of cooldown where you are not able to use noone of your powers (no encounter, no atwills, no daily, no artefact, no power mount, no potion) and that means that it will be very difficult to keep allies alive, especially in some hard content like VoS HC, or in some situations where you need to give mitigations (like Whitenoise in Zariel Master, or heatwave or storm phase in ToMM). This cooldown after playing a song makes the class significantly clunky. As a bard healer you are supposed to keep playing songs to buff and heal with songs or your at will. If people take a lot of damage when you are locked after playing a song, you are doomed to watch them use potion/health stone to refill their hp or wathcin them died.
-Feedback: mysuggestions is totally removing this cooldown; another way to fix it would be to make songs apply right after you play the last note, instead of applying when your character exists Performance Mode https://youtu.be/G4DWI0vXpbw
2) We can see the duration of some songs like blaze flamenco, rejuvenating carol and warding carol. However we can't see sheltering etude song's (it appear in buff bar but is not easy to check when it effect goes away I suggested to add shelterin etude icon in performance bar. 3) also add storyteller feat to our buff bar to watch when it procs and then goes away.
4)Forte bard is NOW performance regen, critical severity and deflect severity. Considering we have CRITICAL TUNING that giving us 10% of critical severity after playing a song that is not in quick play slot., a bard healer can stay at 80% of critical severity.
i would say it should be critical strike on offense and maybe awarness/critical avoidance forte. Another solution can be changing Critical Tuning to 10% Critical Strike..
5) bard AoE healing are to low and insignificant, especially for endgame contents.
Our main resources for healing allies are: - Rejuvenating carol (SONG): it got a magnitude heal buff, but even with a max toon, with right stats, the ammount of the healing is close to 52k (my max and critical) every 3 second for 30 seconds. I suggested to buff again the heal magnitude by 100/150 at least. This power heal is really low and doesnt help you and your party. Also because bard healer doesnt give Damage resistance to dps side (only if you use one daily), and that and this makes healing really difficult..
- Aurora Fantasia (SONG): we just talked about this songs, that is really useless for bard healer because it has really a low heal magnitude (10/12k max healing hit for hits).
I suggest to completely rework Aurora Fantasia in "after playing this song all ur allies gain 5-10% Damage resistance".
-Arpeggio (Atwill): this is our main and only, atwills/encounter, that heals allies. Have only 1 problem to be fixed: this heals companions and mirage clones, and has a target cap of 15. so sometimes you wont be able to heal players depending on how close they are to you. it shouldnt be able to heal companions and mirage clones, like was did for healing word, divine shelter and rivitalize after I opened a thread
bugs: °flourish & bassline: sometimes they cancel for no reason and you have to cast them multiple times. °Harmonize:it doesnt work when you play songs so that means you cant generate AP by playing songs and i think its a bug.

I reported the below information through the ticket system and was asked to re-report here for devs to see. I have seen at least one other person already mention something similar. (Tickets #568080 & #571940)
After the patch/maintenance on 8/05/21 the Wayward Bard's Puffy Shirt does not have an appearance when previewed or equipped. I have switched out appearance items and the other few I have on her work. I have tried removing the custom colors, but there was no change. https://photos.google.com/u/0/photo/AF1QipMfJJ8ImhPgQHj1c11yYmUX5N79gsW8KKWoe7s_
Bard Minstrel - Natural Talents: Unlocks additional quick play slot Doesn't actually grant +1 Quick Play. Started happening today in Castle Never. Death did not fix it. Had to relog in the game

You dont have to relog, if you play song, quit, wait 20 sec and then play again you get 2 quick slot again. I hope this help you.
Fleche could really do with having the third animation sped up a bit, its very hard when locked in place waiting for a twirl to happen which i take it does the main portion of the at will hit. Improving this cast time of the third part of the animation would make it a smoother gameplay.
I have issues performing songs when I'm disguised, e.g. Vanrakdoom (see pic) and during one of the first tasks in Undermountain (Xanathar and Cult disguise). This was reported earlier and now I had the same experience in Vanrakdoom.
I'm not sure if the other disguise bug I found has been reported or not. In Maze Engine (that or Dwarf King), when you are disguised as a Drow, I was completely unable to perform any songs, in addition to broken animations and combat actions not animating at all.
Are devs even looking at any of these posts? Been a month now with no posts from devs, no updates, nothing - class still the same as it was on launch. I've found more issues but we don't get a response so what's the point.
Outfitter in Stronghold is not accessible for a Bard
I 'think' you removed the dialog diamond because you determined that there were no Dragonflight equipment items to sell a Bard. But the Outfitter is one of the few vendors in the SH that you can sell items to for gold. I often use her rather than running to the font of the building to speak with the Generalist.
Please enable dialog with the Outfitter in the SH for a Bard.
Graycloak's Rapier breaks all battle animations if it is used as an appearance item. If used as an equipped item the game claims: You must equip a weapon.
The Delzoun Treasure Box can't be opened as it claims I already have all the items from the box, which I don't. Because if I did, I would have a Delzoun Rapier, which I don't.

when you trigger from encore balad of hero do not proc the songblade inspiration and sforzando. when you trigger from encore one of the other 3 songs it proc the songblade inspiration and sforzando. when you triggger from encore ballad of the wtich don proc the songblade inspiration and sforzando.
so where is the bug on the ballads or on the other 3 songs?
I think Dread Legion Armor for Bards got left out. It maybe it's in the work or forgotten, but I don't see any posts about it.
The Dread Legion Armor (fashion) from Vendor behind Bruenor in Mantol. The Dread Legion Armor Special when selected by Bards are items made for Rogue class and cannot be worn because Bards are not in the same class.

There is also a problem with the Valiant Wayfarer's Clothing. It wants to be equipped in place of armor, can't be previewed, can't be converted to an appearance item and has no appearance once equipped. The hat is the only piece that can be seen.
