Bard rotation help

I have been gone awhile and with the next expansion and all the changes I was hoping someone could direct me to a good bard rotation thread, website, or just help me out. Doesn't need to be barney style, looking for savage rotation level with the best time to use my cooldowns for the initial burn. I am only 60 but just want to use the next 10 levels for getting my muscle memory down. Also trying to my buttons set ect.

If anyone has any useful bard marcos as well that would be great. I left when they change bard to cast times..and now that it's back to its original form...I am excited again.

Thanks:)

This is a good place to start: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...OqjCNw/preview

I am similar to you, I played 2.x as Bard up to right before 3rd Coil was released, then took a loooooooong break for IRL reasons. I'm back on a new account now and re-learning Bard. From what I have gathered and researched, 4.0 Bard, outside of your opener, is less of a set "rotation" and more of a priority system of making certain things are constantly up and weaving in your other skills as they fit into cooldowns.

Thanks! Will check that over today after work. Yeah mainly looking for opener and song priority. Seems like all 3 increase dps in their own way, not sure which is preferred for dps increase for myself, the raid, ect. After that I feel its all about not letting those dots and songs drop. Been having fun with it.

As for songs: It is Wanderer's Minuet>Mage's Ballad>Army's Paeon. Army's Paeon is decidedly the worst of the songs in the rotation and is really there just to have SOMETHING up while the other two are on CD. I have seen alot of Bard's Clip Army's to put Minuet back up as soon as it is off CD.

People are clipping AP at 10 seconds because it will be up in 60 seconds at that point and MB will be up in 30, so if you sing WM for the full length, when it ends then MB will be off CD, sing MB for the entire 30 seconds, and AP will be back up.

I'm just really happy that Barrage works with Refulgent Arrow... Only rotation you really need to work towards.
