This thread is to report bugs related to the new Bard class. Please do not report previously discovered bugs (either on live or on preview) or general feedback. All unrelated comments will be moved so that the team can better focus on the new Bard issues on Xbox.
NOTE: If you post an issue on this thread, please be assured that it is being read. Time will be spent reviewing issues and escalating them as efficiently as possible. We are not able to respond or give detailed updates to each individual post but all feedback and reports are being received.
Known Issues of Note:
- In Free Perform mode, notes that require holding LB are currently not functioning correctly. This does not impact combat. We will be addressing this in a future build.
- Xbox Series X splash screen flickers and may cause issues for those with photosensitivity.

Aurora Fantasisa bugs when using daily encore making it possible to spam the RB to cancel the song multiple times until out of combat or out of performance.
While the Aurora Fantasia bug does give you a 400 mag AoE heal on a 2s CD and keeps the heal on attack effect, it literally keeps your Perform at 0 for the entire fight which is extremely detrimental.
Sharp notes are not playable on the Bard in free perform because the LB button still is acting as a shift for jumping.This means that the developers will need to change free perform to be an action that is not possible while moving around, as this is a console limitation due to having less inputs than PC.I checked all of the notes available (3 octaves of natural a flat notes). While they are all technically correct, the intonation is sometimes inconsistent. Not sure what the cause of this is but often the notes aren't in tune.
The free 100% character loadout coupon does not work on Xbox since the loadout purchases were moved to the wondrous bazaar.
The transmutes given out as quest rewards are BTC. On preview, these transmutes were not bound. Many players would be satisfied with a BTA status.
The Delzoun pack from the old Champion of the North pack is not able to be opened on a Bard (most likely due to there being no transmute made for the Bard).
The mythic Eclipse Lion is not equipable until level 4, even though all other tested account mounts can be used once you reach Protector's Enclave and reach the mission regarding equipping your first mount.
Steel March does not display its Performance Cost.
Arpeggio- range says "self" this is obviously incorrect
Serenade- same problem as Arpeggio
Rejuvenating Carol- doesn't specify how much it heals per second
Aurora Fantasia/Aurora Finale- also has range as "self" and just says heals "nearby" allies. Please add the actual range.
Starstruck- just says there is a "chance" to become starstruck. No actual percentage is given, nor does it list how much the heal is.
Sudden Muse- the names of the effects do not pop up on screen like most other effects do.
Bassline- animation seems messed up. When moving the character just slides across the ground.

> Can we just get a simple buff in magnitude to the HOT.
I agree, Revujenating Carol heals very low when played. Healing allies individually with Arpeggio afterward seems to heal more...
There is no interaction/Vendor icon at all.
This will need to be fixed before any SH events occur.
The “cosmetic” bard outfits in the bazaar act as equipment and there is no option to convert them into your library.
In addition to Lunge and Duet disabling the VFX for Ioun Stones, it also disables the VFX on Armor Enchants
This issue will need to be fixed before SH Event Week begins.
This makes any participation in any of this weeks events pretty much pointless as a Bard.
> The equip power, Butcher's Frenzy on the Recap's Cap, is not always procing. I notice it when I use the power, Volti Subito. I can hit any target for over 100k and my power and movement speed doesn't increase at all. My hit points are 661,204. It's supposed to give 1.5 power and 1.5 movement speed upon damaging or healing the target at 10%. My path is Songblade.
Correction: Movement speed is 1%
