View Full Version : Jete- Bard How To
As of now I'm learning how to edit / upload video ( and actually make the game look good ) as well as songs. My end goal is to make a few bard how to's, some things you will know some things you won't.... And tricks to help you succeed against harder mobs, like king, lord or frenzy solo.
Ideas / Future Videos-
Solo break in fear.
Solo AM / Lord / King.
Solo up to and including Skarlorn.
AoE Kite mechanics / how to p1999 AoE Kite.
When and what songs to twist.
How to pull / lower aggro.
How to kite in a dungeon.

The special effects in the video were a bit annoying for an instructional video, but keep it up

sorry i made it through about 90 seconds then was like...oh shit, i have another 4 minutes of him playing with different video effects, and unpleasant music....was really just wanting to watch a bard do his thing. Sorry, I applaud you for the effort, it just wasn't my thing.

this is true
Hey I appreciate the feedback! I was throwing effects on it like crazy to test my software, for my instructional videos I wont be doing much of that at all... Anyways, if any bards have any challenges that are feasible or have questions on how to do something PM me or /tell me in game, ill be making tons and tons of them, as well as putting all bug reports that are bard related in video format.
The songs "Je Prefere / Du Style" by Jena Lee and "Colder" By Charon. Jena Lee is a French artist obviously and Charon is an artist I found while watching WoW PvP videos when I used to be really into that...
Thanks guys for the replies and views, I really appreciate it- <33
Edit-
Also please let me know if the in-game footage is crappy and a way to fix it, I noticed that it looks dark, especially on lower settings. I have also noticed its hard to read my chat, so ill be making the windows bigger as well. Unfortunately I play on a 1280 X 1024 until my new monitor arrives here in Japan, my videos will probably be at a weird resolution for the large part of you guys.

I was gunna say that its waaaay to dark. Maybe turn gamma in-game to full and see how that turns out on the recording?
Yea for sure! I turned it up a few notches since then, ill need to do some testing.

This is a french song I HIGHLY recommend and if it was inserted as a small video within your video I would be WAY more interested in watching it. Just something to consider. :)

I think the music needs to be toned down a bit because it can be distracting. The rewind feature can be helpful to show the subtle little strategies in places. The most important thing you'll want to add are text bubbles, arrows and such to bring the viewers attention to PC and mob placement and such.
Think of it more like a football instant replay than an EQ music video.
All in all it's a pretty good first trial at just making a video in general and playing with effects. I can tell these will turn out pretty good.

I want to see some AE kiting. I was told a few weeks back that it's 100% doable, and I tried, and failed. Maybe I'm not what I used to be, but I just couldn't get in the sweet spot. Maybe you can jetester? 8D

Well I am about to split the criticism I guess. I liked the special effects personally. Also as a person who just started to make a bard I am looking forward to these videos, so thanks in advance.

As a long-time bard player on live this is nice to see, as some of the intricacies of the class are unknown to many / can be hard to master.

after watching it a 3rd time, I totally understand what you were trying to do from concept to execution, but I'm partial to you so maybe that's why people are quick to flame. I agree with it being a little dark, and I could do without the multiple head thing in every direction part =p Love the wall dancing though. You got skillz my friend.

So like when ur soloing the spectres and showing us that y axis bug and when ur pausing the mob, ur pretty much just saying you're abusing a glitch right?

^^^
This is an honest question...
I'm still waiting to hear the official word on this.
BTW I have already responded to this, but, the y-axis thing doesn't really help you at all. If you tested any of these methods you will notice you will get just as owned higher in the y-axis. Since most of you didn't and are mostly trolling around- I'll explain it for you.
Y-Axis: It gives bards a better "sight" on the target, in the video you will notice I talk about using the corners of oasis specs. The reason for that is a lot of bards use the dunes or circle the specs. By using the corners and getting higher Y-Axis height, you have a much lower chance of being LoS'd. (Line of Sighted)
Charm 'Pausing' / Multi-Charm: I did not charm on live- I was too young to understand it and I sucked at this game (not much has changed.) So when I first stumbled upon this I bug reported it, along with a ton of other exploits charm could be used for. My thought is this: Either charm has a memblur portion built into it, its bugged, or it isn't a fixed bug to make up for swarm kiting being utterly useless.
To end- try testing things on your own sometime to see if you even know what you are talking about. Quit focusing on the bad as well- I find it very interesting that since WoW, people see something another class can do and start burning witches so fast all we ever see are nerfs. If people would focus on things such as Bards not being able to swarm kite, AoE kite (you can AoE kite, just not.. like your supposed to be able to...) faction kite, auto-run kite, instrument swap kite, etc, etc, there would be no need to metagame so hard. Also, if you have ever been able to charm a lvl 37+ mob anywhere, including the planes for almost full duration, pull the log out of your eye before you pull the thorn out of mine. This will be my last update / post on this thread, which kinda depresses me because I really wanted to give back to the community, but appears we don't have one to give back to.
wacko
05-03-2010, 10:07 PM
im not hating bud, im just saying that you found a bug and you're just exploiting it when u should really do everything you can to NOT make use of it (charm pausing). It's like saying that if whoever did exploit the money bug and reported it but still were using in the end had a legitimate right to use it..because they bug reported it?

Forgive me for just wanting to make sure that I won't get banned for attempting this.
All I wanted was an official answer. I have yet to hear anything so I will assume it's safe for any bard on the server to use with impunity.
Bard charm has no memory blur component so that should not be happening.
If nothing else, it should be behaving the same way with enchanter charm since they are identical spells.
It's a legitimate question and I was not intending on hurting any feelings by asking.
(The Y-axis thing was already answered a couple pages ago and I acknowledged it.)
Lastly, I am currently leveling up a bard, why the hell would I want to see the class nerfed?

The video link appears to have been removed from the original post, but I would be extremely interested in some bard how-to videos. I have recently started playing my first bard, and would love to see the proper way to AoE kite, as well pull/manage aggro.
My bard is level 11, so a video oriented around noob kiting and/or pulling would be ideal for me. I never played a bard in original EQ, so I don't really know the difference between original kiting and p99 kiting - to be honest I am clueless when it comes to bard activities beyond twisting here using macros! Some videos would be the best way to understand what can be done.
I hope you did not take your video down in response to the criticism of the replies here. I think you should definitely re-upload, as I believe many would still be interested in watching. I don't know if some of these other guys have been living under a rock, but I'd think people would be used to seeing tacky graphics all over the web by now. As long as the content of the video has something to offer, the presentation doesn't matter as much to me. Albeit a simple screen-grab video possibly with a voice-over is all that is necessary, I would love to see your instructional video in whatever current state it is in.

I don't think the video was removed due to the quality of the editing being criticized. I personally think the charm kiting video was edited just fine.
