I really wish Elyana still subscribed to this list.
She was doing both dragons, weekly, at lvl 42 - and
they never failed. I'm not disagreeing, or arguing,
and I can't say anything (I'm too young, myself), but
I'd like to hear what people that have done it did,
and what they have to say about it. I only know
(personally) 2 bards that have done dragons, and won.

(geared toward Sylly, but I'd like opinions on this
line of thinking)

It's not worth your time to twist those songs.
Here's why from
my limited experience in both planes, and inside
info from
other servers dragon raids:

1) Lag. You will be lucky to even get twisting in.
With my P3-450, 128MB, TNT2 Ultra machine with
all options
off... detail, pc names, effects, my misses, your
misses,
your hits, all spell, all song, I still got
lagged something
horrible. It's the location server trying to
update 30 people
in a very tight area, nothing you can do about
it.

2) You will get more attention than you wanted,
starting and stopping
a song draws attention, an adhorrent thought so
as it tripled me
for 135. Cazic Thule thought so when I twisted
and he clobbered
me in the 170s. That said, oh well, you gotta
twist, so twist
the right stuff ;)

<buncha stuff snipped>

Bust your ass so we can fight together at full power
(L50) again.

Harm.
