Also the support role is it similar to healer or it's just buffs/dps focused with no healing and talking about supports I noticed bard class which seemed quite interesting, but after looking up info about bards a lot of people says it's not worth playing one, because he become "useful" only at end game/raids and even say it's better to play dps rather than supports.
Now I'm a bit confused here, maybe you can enlighten me about this so I could have fun to the max playing.
