My understanding is because it's primary slot, in addition to the best mod on a drum. You can have something in secondary at same time for more stats.

Also less items to swap in and out since you can leave a weapon or shield in OH at the same time. I've barely played my bard so far (lvl 17) and only having to swap instrument with primary is wayyy nicer then taking primary out, then swapping secondary items, then doing it in reverse when you want to take instrument off.

The less swapping = luxury item in a sense so people are willing to pay a lot to more so they don't have to swap so many items around. Looks like a great quality of life item to me. Also SG is one of the few difficult dungeons in the game, so it's not easily farmed by just anyone.

Boro was on the right track.

This is the rare drop from a super rare mob in the hardest non-raid zone on the server.

Insta click EB (should be targettable but right now is bugged)

Best percussion mod (resists, debuffs, dots)

And yes, as Boro said, the fact that it is primary equippable makes all the difference.

You rarely play chant dots? Is it because you either have to commit to only playing those and not meleeing, or the sheer number of clicks you need to do to melee and play those dots at full power is too much to bear? Well with DotB, it's just hovering your mouse over your primary, and when the chant dot is about to land, you click drums in, and then you click them back out. Just like that, max damage, with a simple double click, no melee dps lost.

They are beastly!
