I chose BRD for swift gameplay, if I wanted to cast I would have chosen a Mage.

Here's something I cooked up a couple of days ago for the other bard thread. Far from perfect and some may even hate it, but I like to think it tries to keep ARR bard gameplay intact while adding to it.

Jumping on it now. Even if a work in progress, I'm sure it's in a helpful direction. Thanks, Duelle.

Edit: Interesting, but while I'm usually one to complain that a lot of the new abilities are really nothing more than traits that take up extra bar space, I do feel like I'd miss the EA and IJ abilities (or, abilities in their place) with WM covering so many level-ups. I like the options that it could give us, but at the same time, I'm afraid just as many people would be turned off by the weaving of Invocation as weaving movement in WM. Others may also be turned off by the CDs it places on our support (via I-song lockouts, unless that was supposed to read as the Invoke-effect on those songs can't be used again for 2 min, instead of the songs themselves?).

EditofEdit: I apologize if I'm seeming critical of your contribution in any way without contributing myself; it's just that my ideas are still a ways behind in development. I'm mostly focusing on the support aspects that I feel can or should have personal dps significance as well. I haven't gone so far as to remove Wanderer's Minuet, though (as horrible a name as that is for a turret stance, lol), since I honestly do like playing chicken with AoEs when in WM... (probably more than I should but with virtually no hits taken outside of lag spikes).
