Hi everyone
As im making an alt on hibernia on a german server (to join a friend) i decided to try something new. I dont have a minstrel type class and thought it might be fun. Im not a soloer so bard would be perfect, right? Now comes the big question: how should i spec?
I like nurture for the endureance, running and power songs, so i think my main spec line will be nurture. Now how many points should i put in there, and how many in wep and/or shield? (btw which wep can you suggest, blades or blunt?) or are the DDs and the AE mezzes worth speccing in Music?

I would really appreciate any help :) and thank for it in advance.

[Edit] Does anyone actually use the resistance spells or are they worthless? [Edit]

Music is needed for mez (AOE) and it is very much needed in EZ. But i would advice u to do Nurture max and the rest in music.

You dont need any blade/blunt .. maybe one to get the first style.
I suggest u do blunt if u are a firbolg coz it only uses the str , but blades uses str and dex as i know. I might be wrong.

hmm, I`s a hard question, But this is what I`m planning to get to.

nurture 43 (last speed and u have all but powersong 5)
music 44 (last yell and last mess and AoE mess)
regrowth 12 (so I atleast can heal in backup)
blunt "the rest" (to be able to defend myself in RvR) =))

hope this can be of some help to u on ur jorny to be the bard of ur dreams =)

PS: don`t bother to wright if I spend to many points ! I don`t have the time to calculate em ! :) :) :)

Same as Barda JP only i took 17 Regrowth for Better Rez and Group Heal ( and im soooo Glad i did - " my choice and i love it " ) and Rest in Blunt ....But with doing this you dont get a Good Blunt Style at spec 18 so the choice is yours..

Regards Nicky..

OK thanks for the help. I think i will have 21 blunt, 20 regrowth, 39 nurture, and 44 music. Sound good?

Bards really that boring?

Title says it all, but arent fighters supposed to be just as boring? i hear tons of people complianing about the mindless boredom of playing tanks. Enchanter is fun, i agree but (as i hear) not that usefull in RvR.

Bards can be boring if you just go with the flow, but I've already commented on this in the other thread Eternal linked to just now :)

Just spotted this, nope, nobody here uses them at all since they're in the next patch so we don't have them yet ;)

Nah tank is much more fun. I got a lvl 27 hero and thats much more fun to play. Just made a new char though. After played a pet specced enchanter to lvl 20, I now made a mana PBAOE enchanter. and thats very cool. at lvl 8 I solo 3 orange/yellow blackthorns with iumantashies, they go down in 2 blasts. Suicide mage is very fun. Not bad to take 3 yellow/orange for the mana of 2 blasts hehe. They are also vry nice in later lvl groups, adn got run buff too in that spec. Also you got got a pet, thats not so good since specced in mana, but it's still nice and you still get the pet heals. :clap: :clap: :m00:
