Bard & Skills

[ECDubz]

Hey guys I started up my bard last week and so far i'm up to lvl 33 and have noticed a lot of missed notes when playing some higher level songs. Should i take time out of my day to sit in town or spend skill points to raise my instrument skills higher or is this something that gets fixed with a higher Dexterity? I'm thinking of leaving my bard afk while using specific songs to raise the instrument skills but obviously it won't be full AFK because of the server kickout timer. Let me know what you guys think.

Stack Dex, it has a significant impact on your missed notes. For stringed and percussion, you probably won't need to sit afk, but I sat in Freeport playing invis for about 8 hours to get that skill up, and at some point I plan to do the same for brass.

Even at 200+, your songs are still going to miss fairly often without a good dex level.
