I have a similar build. I have 5 bards. One is a human WC 14/4/2 like yours. The fighter levels are almost a must. Emphasis on the almost. I twf so that's the only reason. Otherwise, I would definitely make mine a 14/6, for frenzy, as stated above several times, however, for even more dps (since I'm somewhat of a min/maxer) I would level a barbarian to 20, then TR into that 14/6 horc battle bard for the barb past life feat. This way you get double the STR and CON for raging, and your short 1.5 minutes rages will last twice as long, freeing up more enhancements. Greataxe user Smiley

Shh, he is new.  He doesn't know that Con also effects the time of rages.

Yeah he also stated to reinc into barb for the past life feat... FOr the extra con and strgth while raging... I am not gonna take up that much time to work in 4 strgth and 4 con while raging that isnt even supposed to be part of the Feat and im pretty sure eventually will be removed anyways.

Anybody coming to this board expecting anything more sophisticated than a dick joke had better get used to disappointment.

I just got that impression after you spent 13 pages calling out eladiun for being an interwebs bully when anyone who's been posting on here already knew that.  I mean, he's proud of it and hardly tries to hide that at all.

Pryce is lvl 20 and will stay that way forever as he's my haggle bard. I plan on TR'ing Irenmon once I feel confortable with the plan and items I am picking up. Not going near as fast as I would like farming due to RL issues keeping me from game.

No it won't be removed. Past life feat barb doubles rage length, and adds +4 con and +4 str to your rages. The +4 str/con is intended. Not sure why you think it will be removed, that's just a silly noob commebt  Undecided

Why wouldn't you work up that much time? Past life barb is totally worth it.  Huh

Understood.  I'm waiting to TR Soulbro as well for the same reasons.  I think I need to get on the Vault Channel or something...  This 2/5 success ratio pugging raids is starting to irritate me.  Just want to get in there and get it done...

It's because your twitch skills suck.



I couldn't resist.

Its always funny when we have to pug a spot on guild runs, we had a guy last night that kept talking about how great it was to finnaly be in a competent grps run, that he had been in failed grps for his last 5 runs... I had no idea tod is such a hard raid.
