You're also going to be Maestroing every 2 minutes, which means 20-30 seconds of "Daze", ie No autoattack. It's a vast change to the class. And I don't think any other class undergoes such a drastic change. I'm not saying it's good or bad, just that you really can't fully experience a Bard until you're 70 and been through the ropes.
I agree to a point, almost all the "hybrid" classes have to learn how they will fit into a raid and act dynamically based on the raid make up but I think that goes along with any class though to a point. My main is a dirge, and while I will agree minus the pos dmg vs mental dmg and dps/spell buff there isn't too much difference between the two bard classes. Much less difference than any of the other class pairs.
