Subject: Bards in Unrest


A similar thing happened to me twice when I was camping behind the back
porch. One time, my group was resting after a fight. I had been using
Denon's Discord during the previous fight. While everyone is resting, the
back door opens up and a festering hag makes a beeline towards me. Next
thing I know she zaps me for 300+ hit points and I'm dead. If there is a
bug with the axis whatever is it something that Verant is aware of and is
working on fixing?

Last night in Unrest I camped off the side porch because there was a
discussion that singing songs off the back porch might be affecting
mobs in
the basement due to an unlimited Z axis affect bug. I also did not
stand
around and sing songs while our puller was in the house...I waited
until our
kill was brought to the fence and whacked once or twice and then
kicked in
my playlist. This worked awesome and I did not die once.

I didn't think the bards invis song worked against undead. I know for a
fact I have been attacked by zombies before while singing the song. Can
someone clarify this please.

I think the people I group with generally recognize that I do a lot
as a
bard, shuffling instruments and weapons, jumping in and out of
physical
melee, playing a variety of different songs, some "simultaneously"
- and
they also recognize the benefit of our songs because I tell them
things like
"check out your magic resist" and get the "wholly crap!" or invis
people
while they are medding and they are amazed that it works against
undead too.
Our party was sitting against the fence medding and watching a
Festering Hag
run around the yard wasting people, finally being killed by a group
only 15
feet away from us - we watched the whole thing as the group leader
nervously
commented "don't stop singing that song Faras..."
