I have also noticed this at lower levels with the bard song Chords of Dissonance and my Lute.

Chord ticks for 12 if cast with the Lute at my level.
If you remove the Lute, and do not refresh Chord, it continues to tick for 12. This is probably correct.

Chord ticks for 6 if cast without the Lute.
If you equip the Lute after landing Chord, and do not refresh Chord, it will tick for 12.
If you then remote the Lute, and do not refresh Chord, it will go back to ticking for 6. These 2 behaviors may not be intended.

So multiple DOT songs remember if they were cast with an instrument, and they also check for the presence of an instrument each tick.

Should DOT songs that were cast without an instrument mod check for an instrument mod each tick?
