Actually, I thought that Selo's only broke a root spell on the bard who
sings it, not on the party members. Any confirmation on this?

Also, you're absolutely right about multiple bards in a group. Also, an
entire group of bards is pretty interesting in a fight when you get to the
lvl 15 and above range. You MUST coordinate your songs, but if you take the
time to do so, you can do some amazing things in combat.

One fun thing to try with a group of two or three bards is to learn how to
stack CoD. You CAN do this, but you have to time it so that the pulses come
at slightly different times. If you work it right, your opponent will wince
until he dies.



Listen and Live.
