Bard DoT on PvP: Not considering instrument

[mischief419]

DoT songs don't seem to be considering instruments in PvP. I know DoT's are reduced in pvp, but a 28 dmg dot is doing 7 dmg per tick WITH instrument.... what ?? I may as well be swinging at them with a rusty mallet for higher damage

You mean fixing bugs? Everyones complaing "ITS NOT CLASSIC", but then when bards have a MAJOR classic necessity that was never fixed after asking for years, yea, i'll try to get the attention of others. By the time velious is released, it goes away. If it's anyone else, you'd be complaining more than me (judging again by your posts)

Yea you're satisfied, your class is probably all balanced n happy. Hell you probably have max lvl of all classes (but bard obv) since you seem like a sad individual; and with how many posts you have and the % being trolls, surely you've served your life with eq and your right-hand.

Yea, bards need shit done and no one is doing it after years of requests. You're gonna see more posts. I hope your OCD of this eats you inside.

Soooooooo about the OP topic? So much spam on this board.

The general bard PvP experience here is non-classic.

I could not land a DoT anywhere on my classic Bard pre-OOS.

Not sure this is a priority.

edit: By which I mean---Bards already do far more DPS and in a very different way from what was ever expected in classic. Bards are presently pretty balanced and in the same way as classically, nevertheless.

But if you rocket up their DPS, they will not really be balanced.

dots dont do full dmg when someone is moving so you have to take that into consideration.

dots dont do full dmg when someone is moving so you have to take that into consideration.This guy has played EQ since classic, mains a class that has dot spells, claims to be a pvp'er, but still doesn't realize that dots do their full PvP damage versus players whether they're moving or not.

Not classic

Well they do there pvp dmg which is -34% of what they do in PVE.

well technically you couldnt see dot dmg in classic(live). that being said i guess i never noticed lol. always seemed like dots did less dmg when i ran but i guess i was wrong. also to be fair i never used dots in classic (this server) because they were weak and everyone just pelled them off. wasnt til WD (kubark) did i really use them in pvp against people I knew wouldnt pell. my bad.

when you zone while doted, on the other side you take full pve dmg from the dots. if you run then you take dmg as if you were a moving mob no? maybe thats why i thought it did.
