Dear All Bards,

[AskaRay]

I think the most interesting multi-bard raid setup I've seen was my playing Foes.... then the other bard playing Ballad (while no one needed mp) all during/at the same time. It felt like my Foes was up for quite a while due to ballad's regen, but I'm not 100% sure if it actually effected while both played at the same time. I haven't mimic'd this, though, as I don't know if it's considered more effective or not for that setup - vs Playing Foes till mp end, and the other bard picking up where the other left off/about to stop.

Ballad definitely affects you while you're playing Foe's. I've seen it happen.
I mean, I'm not sure if it's WORTH IT.... maybe if everyone else is spewing magic left and right, but Foe's definitely lasts at least twice as long, if not longer, with another's Ballad running.

Okay, then I'm not crazy in thinking it seemed a hell of a lot longer xD;
I'm not sure either, considering Balled does take DPS down quite a notch.... but could also counter in that it keeps magey DPS higher for longer duration..... o_oa
I can't tell if it would be a somewhat even tradeoff (or more), or if just ending up with less overall party DPS output than if just trading on/off Foes...
