The '''Bard''' is one of the selectable classes in [[Dragon Quest VII]].
 
==Description==
The Bard is a helpful class using support skills in battle. Outside of battle, they know the spell Repel, able to keep weaker monsters at bay. After mastering this class, the Bard can become a [[Teen Idol]] provided they have also mastered the [[Dancer]] and [[Gadabout|Jester]] classes.

==Usefulness==
The Bard is quite frail and should be put in the back rows. Its only use is to make the [[Teen Idol]] and then a [[Summoner]]. It takes some time to make a summoner and so has to be started as soon the player clears [[Alltrades Abbey (Dragon Quest VII)|Alltrades Abbey]]. However, the rewards are great.
 
The hybrid skills aren't particularly worth getting as there are similar skills that do the same thing.
