Last night I got to party with 2 other bards for the first time in a party.
I have to admit, it was such a blast. we were 25,26,and 27 respectively.
That with a 29 lvled warrior and and a 31druid, we were finishing of
mistmoore mobs in about 10seconds each. the 9 songs being stacked were psalm
of warmth, hymn, chords, ddd, binding, bellow, chain, anthem, fear/sleep
when necessary. i had the lovely honor of singing ddd, chords, and heal.
that with my obsidian shard and enammelled mace was shelling out huge
damage. im curious to find out what weapons everyone (20+) enjoys using.
Im a parttime business man dabbling in armour sales, but im a weapons
collector for fun. my personal stash includes demon claw, staff of writhing,
black enammelled mace, dragoon dirk, obsidian shard, lj crook. had to give
up my tommys awhile back.

>Psalm of Warmth is a very very very useful song if you're

>experience is going to hit you lots and lots of times. With
>the Psalm of Warmth's fire shield, your opponent takes damage
>every time he hits you. At L27 it was "only" 4 points per
>hit, but considering you're probably going to be hit 20-40
>times in a solo fight, that's 80-160 points of free damage.
>I was having trouble soloing defenders in Cazic until I

>Weave it with Hymn and you can make the battle last even

>you can only do three, I'd drop Chain - you will be taking
>more hits, but your opponent will be taking damage for each of

>Swap Chain for Psalm when your opponent starts to flee.
