It works the same way as any detrimental songs do or for that matter detrimental spells. bard slow, chanter slow, bard DoT, necro DoT, bard snare, druid snare.

You will never see what debuffs or dots are on a mob.

The song window is only there for songs that are affecting you.

Aha! thanks for the input, I guess I'll just have to ensure I keep mashing my speed buff after combat. It sucks, but I'm sure I can get used to it.

You have no idea how many times I have been killed the past few days because I walk into an inn with my chords song still active. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

"Hey Zerik, how bout a nice......are you trying to kill me?"

Pissed off Inkeeper hits you for 350 points of damage

By clicking on any song icon it cancels whatever songs you are playing.
When you icons are not greyed out that means you are currently not singing anything.

For good measure just click your health song afterwards. That way you also have a visual queue in your song window. Alternately you can create a specific audio queue for whatever detrimental aoe song you are using that worries you. This way you can hear a little chime when your aoe dot ends.

How would you create an audio queue for songs?

Audio triggers just look for specific text. So all you do is type whatever you want it to look for (I don't know offhand what the specific text is for the ending of dirge songs). Then you pick a sound, and give that trigger a name.

Voila!

Much obliged sir, I'll have to look into these. It's been so long since I've played I barely remember anything. I need to get back into the macros too, they were super useful as I recall.

Yeah, you would think I would know better, being that I leveled a Bard to level 57 back in the classic thru velious era.

But I did the same thing back then as well. But eventually, I just learned to always pay attention to which song I was currently playing. Now it seems the only time this happens to me is when I am on the phone or something.
