Subject: RE: [eqbards] The true history of Lullaby, it's problems, it's fi xes and it's nerfs


Lyrnia I have to disagree on one point. There is no way the secondary
resist was added before last Sept/Oct. Before that I never got a mob
attacking me after a successful "nods" message. They might have thought the
secondary resist was in, but it didn't work if it was.

An enchanter and any melee class can derail a large train of blues and
slaughter them one by one. They face the same level of risk as two bards
trying this. It was not overly powerful. Without being able to use other
songs a bard is a very poor melee fighter at level 15+ when he has Lullaby.

Lullaby with just a Lute would be just as useless as it is now. It would be
cool for saving newbies from a train in Blackburrow, but pointless in normal
combat situations. Unless you want to just stand there and play just
Lullaby while the rest of the group actually fights. That's why my
enchanter is just gathering dust, I found I don;t want to just stand (err
sit) there and Mez until someone needs Quickness or Breeze refreshed.
