Please check the manasong DUration too...it doesnt have same duration as the other songs,and the lvl 42 haste song..almost never lands when i cast it...so pretty useless atm,but more important is the manasong..can barely twist 2 songs without fading it,thanks alot for ur work

Is your brass capped? McVaxius' Berserker Crescendo has a brass component to it that increases the missed note rate on it if your Brass isn't near capped skill range. I noticed this as well when first dinging into 42--and subsequently leveling brass up which seemed to fix the problem of multiple miss notes in a row.

Songs breaking if they fade directly after recast

Bard songs will fade if the song "breaks" even if it is recasted. For example-
I cast hymn of restoration ( should last 4 ticks or 12 seconds )
I wait 8.2 seconds ( 3.2 seconds left on Hymn of restoration buff )
The new Hymn of restoration hits and shows in the buff bar.
The old Hymn of restoration fades at almost the exact same time. ( Your wounds stop healing )
The new Hymn of restoration fades. ( lasted about .2 seconds as a buff)

This has always occurred on live.

And still does, at least as current as 1 year ago.

Regarding mana song, if its anything like actual EQ, it only gives mana on the "your mind clears" message. Duration is/should be a non-issue

Bump, added FIXED text... Would REALLY like to see instrument switch issue take priority for Bards next!

Level 11 alliance song is still broken, can be resisted as a corpse of mine can attest to

After consulting with Jete, wondering where our level 14 song "Lyssa's Cataloging Libretto" was located... it may not be in the game. I double checked all vendors in FP, Qeynos, Kelethin, HHK, and Erudin. Anybody find this, and maybe I'm just crazy? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It should be located in Erudian. I think it was one of the fiew times i ever went to library.

[Jete]

I was unable to find the song in Erudin.. Are you saying you bought it on live there?

Updated the list, can someone make a link to Bard alliance song bug for me?

[Turbo]

Don't know that anyone made a seperate thread for it. It's broken in the same way enchanter's alliance is/was. It is still resistable at this point and may or may not result in agro either way; it used to but I haven't tried it since

AE detrimental song range is too small, and mobs hit boxes are too big.

If you have a song active and you replay song over it, it overwrites it but makes it wear off first causing a brief time when song inactive. For example if selos is active and you play a different song and then you play selo`s again, it will make selos wear off and slow you down before speeding up again. This is different from the `song fades as it lands` bug.
