>From: John_Senior@...
>Level 39: Invis to Undead (useful in Lower guk etc)
Rather have an upgrade to our charm song, allowing us to charm up to 49th
lvl mobs :)
A Fire Giant Warrior says, "Guarding you O splended one"

>Level 45: An upgraded Bellow/DD song (giving us better combat skills)
A group heal song that uses mana. Have it convert all your mana into HP
(say 1 hp for each mana point) and devided amoung all party members. By my
estimates I had a little less then 1000 mana at 45th with 90 int. This
would give a reason for our class armor to have +int bonuses. Given the
huge taunt factor of group heals this song would be fairly balanced

>Level 47: Summon Corpse song (like the necro one)
Niv's Melody of Preservation is already slotted for this (info is in the
spdat.eff file. Info Harmonic found from poking around:
Berserker Strength shows as HP Absorb Shield (this is what Niv's really is
btw) [Protective Skin is mis-worded] The shield is what I refer to as
'Rune shielding' after the Rune series. Our new song is half as powerful as
the Berserker Strength shielding (Enchanter 20). The Strength component is
slightly better than the Shaman L29 spell called Raging Strength. The new
song has the same Strength component as the Berserker Strength (Enchanter
L20)
The Max HP component is close to 3/4's the component of the Cleric 9 Center
spell.
For all purposes, this new song resembles the Enchanter Berserker Strength
spell across all party members.
It has half the range of Selo's Accelerando, and slightly more range than
Hymn, and close to equal range of Chant of Battle.
the Healing aspect is identical in numerics to Hymn. However how it is
applied will be a different story. (It could have a very low fixed ceiling,
as could all the effects in this description) I'm not sure how level will
influence this song, but since it's L47 I doubt the effects will increase
much in 3 levels. Just pure speculation and assumption on my part based on
the data file.
I'd hate to say this is anything more than an educated guess.

Sounds like a interesting song.

>Level 49: Upgraded older song (such as charm) or a combo song (2 effects
>such as hymm and clarity)
Not sure what would be nice here. The idea of a combo of Hymn of
restoration and Clarity sounds nice. But I would hate to waste a high
level song slot on something so mundane. Maybe have this be the group heal
song and have 45 be a Mem Blur song.
