Hey, I remember the days of well, I just looted my
first bronze sword off a bandit, have to go sell now.
Don't skimp on the armor though, increase your
strenght. Get a blackened iron crown, spiked collar,
str rings, str earrings, bloodstained mantle and an
erollisi bracer. Then you'll be able to lug some
loot. Light armor on a bard IMO = long naked walk
back to body.
