    Question about 4.0 Bard stat priority!

    I'm usually a healer with bard as my second class, but thinking about sticking to bard this time around. With the changes that have been made, what would you guys think would be best to prioritize for bard? Crit > Direct Hit? Or Skillspeed/Det after? Just not sure where things should be placed now with all the changes. Any tips/pointers would be great!

    Logically, Crit should be the best by a long shot.
    As for the others?
    I don't think anyone's spent the time to test yet.

    Since Direct Hit and Determination both stack with Crit, and SkillSpeed affects the cooldown of Empyreal Arrow, it could be any of them.
    If I had to guess, I'd imagine that all three of them will turn out to be pretty close as a Tertiary stat with Direct Hit taking a slight edge because they normally overtune RNG effects.
