Looking back at it from the ripe old age of 35 songs, I have to say that 20-24 was the pits for Bard
hate. I suspect that the relative taunt values of our lower level songs are highest at this point. I got
killed in Cazic 8 times in two consecutive evenings. And I was bound in High Keep, so most of my time was
taken up in travelling. I got killed in whatever-the-heck-Karana is next to High Keep four times in the
last bubble of 21. I got killed... oh, never mind. There was just about nothing I could have done about
it except stop singing altogether (and even that didn't stop the two Ice Giants, eh, Harmonic?), and that
seemed pretty pointless. So I did the cop-out approach: I went to High Keep. You can also probably
group/solo the crocs/caimans in Oasis. I did that on and off over a couple of levels. Just remember:
this will pass, my son. ;) (My roommate is standing looking over my shoulder saying "I remember what it
was like back then - you were SO MAD!" hehe)
