While looking for my A4 maps binder I stumbled across my old 'Bard Bible'.
For those that might not be familiar with it, it's a 30 odd page guide for the Classic era Bard.

(Location of all songs, songs checklist, Loc's, recipes, ALL of the Bard armour, both generic & class specific as per Loc, ALL instrument's & their bonuses et al, there is a lot of info within it's pages).

It was originally on EqDiva's site & I believe that that's now long gone.

I plan to scan it this coming weekend & if anyone wants a copy, please just let me know.

*Happy to add it to the guides section etc if that's acceptable?

I have the original .doc for that, which would be better quality than scanning. I also have the Rogue Report, Ranger Pamphlet and Paladin Pamphlet. They all seem to be from Kunark or maybe Luclin and I am a little sad I never picked up the full set, but they are an interesting read...

Paladin's Pamphlet - http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=93669377928945178746
Ranger's Pamphlet - http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=84339628167129192476
Rogue's Report - http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=00805112173603093067

For some reason, the formatting is a little off on my computer (I use Open Office, so I am used to that), but they should open fine in MS Word.

Nice one Mentathiel.

I wasn't convinced it would scan too well.


Thanks for Sharing.

Not a problem; I had been thinking about posting them, but I kept forgetting. I just printed out the Rogue's Report this past weekend for reference and it was a real boon for my ranger on Live to have the Ivy Etched components listed for reference.

They are very nice but unless I'm crazy the bard the scanning on the Bard one didn't work out well(the Bard song list pages skips) either that the other ones are real nice

Thanks for putting them up

I thought that was just me. A couple of them have graphical issues, but I suppose someone could fix them if they had the time and inclination. It's worth noting that there was a PDF version of the Paladin Pamphlet, so maybe there were some issues wit the .doc even back then.

Looks like there was one named 'The Shadowknight's Source' I never picked up, released shortly before the site went offline, but I'm happy that I caught the others.

I've found out what the problem with it was cause apparently word/openoffice shrinks the tables to make them fit on the page(so they fit in the header/footer for the page).. so if you make the tables bigger the stuff miss shows up but I've been trying to edit it and fix it but its making me want to scream

Just on a side note, MS Word does seem to open the pamplets open perfectly for me. I've tried Word Viewer or Open office and it doesn't open it correctly

So thanks for the files Mentathiel
