Subject: Which song for soloing?


Well met all, Pistov of Cazic-Thule here again. I have just attained 12th
level and have to say that the Bellow is one of my favorite songs yet. I
have a small problem though:

I don't know which song to sing when soloing!

Previously, I had stacked Anthem de Arms and the Whistling Warsong to push
my STR by 20 and give the attack speed bonus. Pretty sweet if I do say so
myself. However, now that I have the Bellow, I find myself using the
Bellow instead. It seems that the extra "kick" for 7 every time means
more damage than just me swinging a bit quicker, especially when I fight
monsters that are difficult to hit that I miss often. Has anyone else had
the same experience?

Also, has anyone else stacked the Bellow with another song? I know the
Bellow has an odd timing and I find myself starting it and stopping it so
often that I don't know how I'd get another song in. Have any of you had
any luck stacking it?

BTW for those who may not know, stacking is when you keep two songs active
at once by stopping each song as soon as you see its effect text (Your
wounds begin to heal, You feel a surge of strength, You start to whistle,
etc.) and then immediately begin a new song. The best songs to stack are
the Hymn, Chords of Dissonance, Anthem de Arms, and the Whistling Warsong.

Any help and comment from others is appreciated.
