I was at the SoV launch party this weekend in Vegas. I got a chance to talk
to a couple of the live team folks and quized them on the changes to the
Jonthan's series. If you have not heard they are removing the rune
component and making the song self only (like the level 7 Jonthan song).
They are also greatly buffing the haste, defense, and attack bonuses of the
song. The goal, they said, was for these songs to allow bards to actually
*tank*. Should be interesting to see how they change.
