DR Bard Temp

[Pims]

Got a shift change coming up at work, will be off permanent nights and 10 grand a year better off so thinking of making a bit of a comeback

Anyways.

Is Jacinas worth gimping my resists and hits abit? I got the same template but using Traldors Belt instead of Jacinas, crafted boots instead on the Lightning Etched Vine Boots and Phoebus Harp obviously.

I gain 14% power, mcl2 charge on the harp and arcane syphon from jacinas but lose 30 odd hp, also worried the resists make this temp not viable, what you think?

[Pims]

Looks nice but I must have winged helm, CTR and full ML10 set.

I got a level 10 GSV in vault, guess I could try making a template around that and drop the ML10 stuff, but would rather keep it

 

[Mirt]

Pims! Give duo!

 

[Leel]

I got jacina on my bard, and I kinda regret it, I think bard is a class that is better off with belt of moirai or fadrins or some other good belt instead of jacina. Makes it easier to fit in other important stuff. You should aim for 30%'ish power pool without jacina though I think, but can get off with like 10% less if you have it.

 

[prodical]

you need capped spell duration , range , cast speed and dex.

 

[Rauno]

both temps look useless/BAD

 

[Pims]

both temps look useless/BAD

Care to explain why?

My temp is missing some hp, resists that i don't consider very important (although i'd prefer them to be better ofc) and a whole 3 dex so with aug dex 3 i get 349 dex which ain't too bad. I'd like more +AF too but is so hard to squeeze any more in without loseing a /use ability.

Cast speed and spell range are capped, 33% power is good imo and not that bothered with spell duration tbh, although it is useful.

In return I get Zo'arkat, CB, EoY, ML10 cloak (shit /use i know ), jacinas passive effect, winged helm, CTR damage conversion, mcl2 charge on the harp, battler abs buff and choice of mailice, scepter or traitors for another /use. Lots of useful stuff to keep me amused.

I honestly thought it was a good template, was just looking for opinions on the resists more than anything

 

[Tuthmes]

you need capped spell duration

not really tbh, range, casting spd, dex are the important ones

Yurka made this one, Best one ive seen

 

[Yurka]

Ill update it later with DR harp and probably galla vest (and one without the vest)

 

[prodical]

not really tbh, range, casting spd, dex are the important ones

and duration. i prefer a target too be mezz for a longer period of time as opposed too half the time cause ur too lazy too cap duration. u play a bard?

 

[Pims]

and duration. i prefer a target too be mezz for a longer period of time as opposed too half the time cause ur too lazy too cap duration. u play a bard?

I have to disagree.

If you land a mezz on someone and say for arguments sake the mezz lasts for 40 seconds with resist buffs, they've already lost the fight, an extra 10 seconds (just rough numbers here) shouldn't make much difference.

It ain't often from my experience that you win the initial mezz war and the whole of the opposing group stands there mezzed for full duration. Its the second mezz when the immunity wears out thats the important one

Even then with all sorts of aoe shit flying about, det, purge, de-mezz, its very rare I see one of my mezzes last for what looks like full duration.

Just my opinion.

I actually prefer spell duration for the way it increases the time you can have various ML and artifact abilities up (convoker ML9 is a prime example).

At the end of the day I've tried to make a template based on previous experiences when barding, I rarely get wacked with heaters, I rarely get killed by fire wizards therefore I gimped heat resists. Don't seem to see many people useing thrust damage and so on... I wanted as many artifacts as possible to keep me amused while still keeping the essentials

I also wanted to use the ML10 set as I don't see many people using ML10 templates on any classes so thought i'd be a little different

I only wanted to know ppls opinions on whether having jacinas in template was worth the lower resists, thats all!

Thanks to those that have replyed though, think I gonna go ahead with the template despite its shortcomings

 

[Tuthmes]

i prefer a target too be mezz for a longer period of time as opposed too half the time cause ur too lazy too cap duration. u play a bard?

Yeah i do and no i'm not too lazy to cap duration. I would rather have better resist or more con/hit's then capped spell duration. The fact that my song pulse's for 2 seconds longer or that my mezz last's for ~7 seconds longer really doesn't matter for my group. Rather have a living bard then a dead bard with capped duration imho.
