Unless, of course, there's a check made every time the pulse happens to
see if it succeeds. I guess we will find out as more people put this new
warning message to the test. If it suddenly makes the bard invisibility
100% reliable I'm sure Verant will fix that as soon as their attention
is drawn to it. It's only when bard songs interact in a broken way with
spells that we never get fixs.
