I thought songs went through zones but then figured i just remembered wrong when it wasnt like that on here but then i saw a post in the blue thread saying songs should go through zones.


Confirm/ deny

I dont know, i was fighting a melee and would land chants and all he had to do was zone and it would drop instantly. I know bards are a huge solo pvper but it would be nice that just zoning wouldnt negate our offensive dmg songs

Devine Aura/Devine Barrier type spell. For those who dont have them, look up shiny brass idol. Make friends with a bard to start you out with a selo's.

Start with at least a SOW potion but Bard 2 minute Selos is better. Since you're non-kos to COV you can get into a good position and just do it. Load up on buffs beforehand and make sure that you have Bind Affinity loaded. When you get to PoM, BIND FIRST. .

When your ready to do it have a bard give u selo's outside then get invis and run to aary's pit

Right now bards songs dont go through zone. I know these excerpts are of the 2 min selo song of running to PoM.I myself remember doing the run and standing outside ToV and getting selo and booking it hard. Its not hard evidence that songs went through zone lines in classic but i would think would apply to classic

Several bard songs do go through zones... the ones that go in buff window. Like Selos, levitate and DA.

Nothing else should. Does that answer your question? If goes to song window, does not last through zoning.

selos go in buff window and the links and quotes show that people are getting selos out side of ToV and running through with it to get to PoM and i just tested it on pvp server. I sang guardian of rhythms and it goes in my song window, not buff window, and i zoned and it didnt stay

Not sure classic but I remember using bard selo from outside ToV to zone in and run to PoM.

Pretty certain bard songs are suppose to zone. I could not find any patch notes, would I though if it was from the start? Do other people recall DA bard zoning and zoneing with few tics of selos left?

yeah not certain since this feature was never changed coudlnt find any patch notes to get a better idea how it operates. I talked to some people and they recalled that when a song window was implemented that any song that went to buff window instead of song window would zone, so DA and selo's but any any song that went to song window did not zone. Right now all songs go to buff window, I do not know if that entitles all songs to zone or still just that selo and DA

I'm saying if it went into buffs instead of song window... it should stay on as a buff. Right? Don't play a bard here aside from occasional Bundy'ing.
