"F*** it, I'm leveling Bard!"
Last night I spent a number of hours competing with THF's for Treasure Chest spawns in Fei'Yin so I can finish the Teleport-Vazhl quest since my WHM can't get a party with out it and in the process I almost Deleveled because Sneak and Invis would wear off at the WORST POSSIBLE TIME and not only that, when I found a "Safe" place to recast I would get aggro and die a few steps from the zone.
So after a few hours of this I Reraised, shouted an unedited version of this topic's title then died again because of Blood aggro.
Honestly, Bard suits me well. I'm an outspoken bossy bitch and 99.9% (I don't wanna say 100% because even though its true, i'll get flamed for it) of the Bards i've partied with are the same. Besides, it'll level fast. I won't need to stop to level my sub and I have pretty much all the gear i'll ever need already.

be warned, if you want an official "Bard Quest", there isnt any listing in your quest list for it.
But ya will need about an hour or so, 1k to buy the parchment, and extra gil for whatever travel expenses you may have.

You'll make enough to cover the parchment cost and buy some starter spells and an instrument or two.
Also, skill up your Singing, Wind and String Instruments. Singing will level with or without instruments so that's no issue. Your skills are all "C" since singing and instrument are tied so your cap is 3* your level.
Best thing to do is to get a variety of instruments and macro them in as needed depending on the bonus they offer to songs. Mary's Horn, Siren Flute, Military Harp, and a Monster Signa are nice, but not needed so if you can't afford them or can't win a claim against the NM's, don't worry.
Entrancing Ribbon, Bird Whistle, Ceremonial Dagger, and Hope Rings are all "Necessary" items for me. As for armor, for parties I go with the Doublet set for the Dunes, Trader's/Baron's for Qufim and the Jungles with RSE switched out as it can be equipped. Mithra RSE offers +3 CHR if I remember correctly. San D'Orian Tea and pies are the foods I use. Pies if I need to backup heal and Tea if I'm just singing for the added CHR.
Most Bard spells can be bought at Vendors for little or no cost but you'll need to do a lot of traveling to get them. Before you hit 25 do the first two "Teamwork" quests in San D'Oria. First one needs a full party of people all from your nation and the second is all of your Race. If you send /tells to people as a non-anon Bard close to level 25, if not level 25 and you'll find people are more likely to help since you NEED the song.
Well, if you need any more information on Bard let me know. I love to do research and share all the information I get.
Also, here is a site everyone who uses spells needs: Final Fantasy XI Spell Database. It lets you know where you can get any spell you need, it covers all jobs that use spells, and it even offers estimated cost for NPC sold spells.

Keavy, I don't care if you have Sneak and Invisible as spells, some places are too dangerous to cast magic.
Get Oils and Powders for those places. Use them when the spells wear in hot spots.
Have fun leveling BRD.
