Thanks Millers, this is the info I was looking for. Not sure the exact timeline that we will get these songs but good to actually see evidence that these songs were not actually in game at launch. I was under the impression that we got 1 song per level at launch.

Seems a bit lame that bards currently can't charm mobs levels > 37.

From a GZ Q&A back in Nov 99:
Q: Why are there no Bard Songs for Bard levels 39, 45, 47 and 49? A: When we were finishing up the Bard class, we wanted to leave some room for expansion during the evolution of EverQuest. Because Bards get one song per level, if we had given them all fifty songs there would have been no room for expansion - aside from taking away older songs. Expect to see new songs coming soon. These songs will not be anything that radically redefines the Bard class - but they will be additions that help keep the Bard interesting at high levels. cheers, Astuce | ||

I still believe these songs dropped right before Kunark not after and I will find proof eventually.... but the 3 months of only 5 mana cast would be dope regardless. Kunark didn’t release til like March, 2000? I suspect bards got the new songs December/Jan of 1999/2000.

Using snapshots of the front page of the concert hall with the wayback machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20001207...per/index.html We can determine precisely when the songs were released: Level 47 Song: Niv's Melody of Preservation is February 18th, 2000. Level 39 Song: Solon's Bewitching Bravura is April 9th, 2000. Level 45 Song: Jonthan's Provocation is also April 9th, 2000. KUNARK launches on April 24th, 2000. Level 49 Song: Shield of Songs is November 13th, 2000. VELIOUS launches on December 5th, 2000. cheers, Astuce | |||

Thanks Astuce - odd that the source I cited has a mana cost change for the song a month prior to your source release of song.
BARD SPELL DETAILS Name: Solon's Bewitching Bravura Level: 39 Mana: 20 Class: Wind, not required Vendor(s): Kelethin Bard Guild Approx Spell Cost: Unknown Researchable: No Type: Single Target Random Duration Charm Max Duration: 18 seconds Casting Time: Instant Recast Time: Instant Actual Effects: Target: Charm (Max Level 55) Description: This song will charm the target mob and make it your pet. This song has a maximum duration of 3 ticks, or 18 seconds, much like Solon's Song of the Sirens. On 3/13/00, the mana cost was increased from 5 to 20. | ||
