I presume battle cry is not castable on ourselfs?

The DPS increase to our ca's/spells can be disregarded...even the crit part does not sound appealing.

I personally have no high hopes to the auto attack enhancer.

So that leaves us with utility.....did we expect anything else?

In the utlity I am 50% ok, 50% bad, 1 % good....not gonna vote yet but will give it some more thought....

First impression of the new AAs are they're pretty good. We're making out better than a lot of other classes at the moment, including Troubs.

Things not on there that would be useful:

Bard Tree
=======
Enhance Bump - increase base damage and accuracy by 5%, improves reuse by 2s per rank

Dirge Tree
========
Enhance Dissonant Requiem - Increase casting speed by 20%, increase base damage by 10% per rank.
Enhance Banshee - Shortens duration by 10%, increase base damage by 5%, improves reuse by 1s per rank
Enhance Scream of Blood - Shortens duration by 10%, increase base damage by 5%, improves reuse by 2s per rank
Enhance Gravitas - Adds enhance 2% hostile spell damage per rank.

All the enhance damage stuff could use a slight boost to make it somewhat equal compared to the other stuff out there. I added the Gravitas AA to give the class more versatility.

If someone is in beta and wants to post these suggestions feel free. You can take credit for my posts, too, I don't care as long as quality feedback for our class is posted.

WHats the difference between having your primary weapon autoattack strike for multiple times and double attack?

Kall

flurry is 2-5 attacks or 3-5 attacks, I forget which.

double attack is just 2 attacks.

DA works on both weapons. Flurry just works on the weapon it's on.

Edit - I'm not sure how they're going to do that buff. Probably make Flurry mainhand only if I had to guess.

rukkis

Looks nice on paper. The bard end line looks like it might be a crit damage multiplier whitch would be pretty sweet imo. Anyone know the total number of points yet?

Kall

It's 60 total.

The only thing I haven't heard so far is how many points end abilities cost. Do they cost 5 for the 1/1 rank?

I completely agree with those two, I was pretty surprised there weren't anything to boost those 2 abilities.

But good overall really, I am pretty pleased with all those AA

I hope they won't get nerfed before release though, since some others classes are already crying that our AA are too good. They still haven't understood that they should ask for THEIR AA to be better and not other classes AA to get nerfed.
