A level 38 bard is now my favorite character: 20 chain combo 475 dps.

My gear is nice though.

I'm glad someone is enjoying the bard! They tend to be oddballs among all classes, so I tried to make them powerful despite their unorthodox gameplay.

Lol I can't say enough about them. They are thrill seekers, I am at 2% health most of the time, but I am able to do 30 to 40 chains with ease now that I have some new mana leach/kill gear, allowing me to put all songs up ( selo+HoT+CoT+Str+Hst+Shield+Elemental+slow). Lol I have never seen a truer bard, a weak plate toon who goes from 100% to death in seconds, if they don't watch out. But have the songs to keep you up.

Honest question: is the cast time too fast? It's 1.5 seconds, but I was thinking about moving it to 2.0. I think it's fine for now, but I did consider that.

I think the cast time is perfect, if it was any slower when we go past level 50 we will be eaten alive. its only the quick reaction of the Denon's that keeps us alive. That said I would know to cast it sooner if I needed. It is hard enough to keep a full cycle up when you have 5 blues, let alone healing.

Four more levels and I will be taken on Da Bosses, Chika Chika ya ya...

Lol level 48 Bard cannot kill Naggy without allot of mana gear He stomped me.

Got 49 tonight I think, tomorrow its on.

Ah ha, I see. Yeah, he's no pushover. On the bright side I just raised the level cap.
