Does stuff get actually challenging later on? Just hit 30.
In Gydaie Glen (Cactakara's instance) Hell Mode, Noripan's moving(!) bombs deal somewhere in the region of 10k damage to anyone in range, which will kill people really quickly. I've seen plenty of people dying even when the Bard has a full stack of Ballad up. I even had the Bard die on me once in CBT because a bomb blew up in his face, leaving me to have to toss my crappy heals (I subbed Bard) around while someone went and ressed him.
Meanwhile, Fia from the same instance can summon a bunch of green tornado-ish things that deal a couple hundred damage multiple times a second. Keep standing in that, and nothing will save you. Your job here as the Bard is simply not to get killed yourself, because there's nothing you can do if some idiot just stands there.
