For the most part I agree, I really only use song of helheim, and when that isn't necessary, I use the dark fairy, modded. The mod (formerly fix -_-) that makes it do what it said at launch (buffs for you, debuffs for them) makes it fun for me and feel like I'm actually a magical bard. Fortunately we have documentation for that change so if we want to mod it ourselves we can.
Imo additional points in the skill shouldn't make them stronger, but instead reduce the penalties so all of them are usable without regrets. For example maybe at rank 2 song of dark fairy gives you a 50% to work like the mod and it's 100% at rank 3. Attack and defense songs could reduce initiative penalty, and so on.
