These were originally my internal notes on how Bard DPS mechanics worked, but I guess they became a guide at some point.
Update Notes:
Fixed some out of date references to bugs, such as amending Ballad of the Hero's critting situation or Ready to Exploit's buff being corrected to its expected 50% value (not that most people care about that feat).
Changed the module to the correct module (no change to general function).
Hi @rjc9000, thank you for this great guide I will use it.
Now that devs are working on fixing the bard, I will be back on my bard. I stopped playing it when they introduced the bug that playing ballad cancel elemental song.
My play style is very similar to your Superstar Build.
Personnally I keep the build for AoE and play Ballad of the Witch, like you said special AoE setup is not necessary when mobs are dying too fast.
“He raised his staff. There was a roll of thunder. The sunlight was blotted out from the eastern windows; the whole hall became suddenly dark as night. The fire faded to sullen embers. Only Gandalf could be seen, standing white and tall before the blackened hearth.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers
