To be fair, Bard being relative to Archer is something that's been done in a lot of games, and it would be a much more particularly Archer-like promotion to Archer that Archer sorely lacks at the moment (you either become become an iron giant firing axes with your bow or you get guns.) Light-footed, rear line is the common between both Archer and Bard.

Classic stringed instrument utilized as a bow and all that jazz.

Honestly, I'd rather see Bard as a Support class 'musical archer' than something more standalone music-centric, otherwise it's just going to encourage people to play 'hip musician who fights by playing music 2good4ursoul' or 'the Justin Bieber of SL2 whose music causes physical wounds!'

I definitely don't see it as a Duelist promotion.
