Anyways, this isnt a skald problem, its not a midgard tank problem (although with trolls, their able to get low quickness very easely)... Its an overall design flaw in Dark Age of Tankalot...
The swing speed isnt really a problem because the target will be dead in 1 swing by 3 tanks...
Anyways, my guess would be that everyone with low quickness will get nerfed some way
Its a complicated issue though, as it changes a few things on how melee works... But it'll be a good fix...
Otherwise, give my wizard a spell that does 1000 damage (after resists) on a 6s recast timer... Note a 6s recast timer, the spell itself ofc, has to be instant (as this is the case with the initial blow from melee)...
Lets see how 'melee' would like that....

Why is this a penalty? Only against pbt if he is solo, assist sorts it out otherwise and being a skald is all about frontloading... Now, if the silly interrupt code would not be the way it is (remember Sanya's "tick tick tick" explanation?), it'd be all right, since a caster would then be able to time his casts in between the swings. But this is not the way Uncle Mythic runs their railroad, is it?
I bet that with the best celerity he nearly hits the 1.5 sec cap.

yes delay isnt that much a prob when your assisting, so take out the maintank first then
and i HONESTLY sincerely doubt he will be even half close to 1.5speed with best celerity +haste
pure celerity is 22% haste, best haste buff is 20% haste.
dunno how they stack, but really, he isnt hitting at 1.5sec, and even if he did he'd frontload ALOT less.

A question - was he 'punished' by GOA for taking advantage of a bug and killing people in mainland Hib ? (I'm assuming it was a bug that got him there ?)

Pure celerity is closer to 40%, 37 I think to be exact. at leat my amplified celerity L3x augspec is 31%.
Also quickness does have a penalty, altho not very large one. Because basedamage remains unchanged nomatter what your swingtime is, and only styledamage remains the same over time no matter hastelvl(i.e, gets higher/blow when you lower quickness), you will be doing less damage over time without haste and quickness. But when assisting frontloading is more efficient that's true. Also this will not be nerfed in 1.62, so keep crying. Maybe we can nerf bard melee next!

Not going to go into this discusison again but as he appealed himself and technically did not use a bug(hole in zonewall or the like) to get in, and explained to GOA what the nature of the mishap that allows you to get in and enabled them to fix it, no actions were taken against him or his account.

yeah, I was kinda under that impression too, since celerity seem to be hasting much more then conc-haste. (which it should)
mythic said they will look into the haste/quickness thing, but that its very low priority atm. We can only hope since the current system is fucked up. (no, dont buff me with those, I want to hit harder (and tbh frontloading is what its all about in rvr ))

done, but the problem with skalds isnt that they do too little dmg, its their laughable defense. (and lots of other "utilities" that have indirectly been nerfed so much they are more or less worthless)

How did he get in to mainland Hib? I know this has been fixed now but just out of pure curiosity.

2 bards 5 chanters and a shield hero. 2 healers, a skald a warrior and 4 sm. Never played alb to know if mincer/ice wizzie combo would do the same job. Are there any groups that can beat the above combo without needing to be much better players? I'm fairly new to rvr anyway but when I have seen even 2 pbae casters go nuts on a mezzed and slammed/stunned grp its all over kind of quick.
