Bard Casting Bar disappears

[Splorf22]

Sometimes when you try to cast a spell as a bard the casting bar will just not show. This is extremely irritating, because it looks like you had a note failure or whatnot, so you end up recasting (resinging?) a song that you did not have to. I'd say my bard lost about 10% of his singing time to this bug. Dramor is now retired to EC but I thought I'd make a post for the sake of my bard comrades!

I haven't noticed any particular songs or zones where this seems more prevalent.

It's not that annoying. Your gems don't refresh like a missed note, so it's easy to tell when this happens. I see it all the time, but it rarely causes me to interrupt a song.

How to tell you didn't miss a note:
Gems don't refresh
Spell particle effects around your hands as normal
No "missed note" text.

I'd suggest this should be low on the fix priority list compared to several other bard related bugs.

Happening often now. Very annoying, actually, especially when kiting.
