Bard - Instrument percentage?
 

Whats the percentage or gains for spells with the equipped instrument? vs not equipped.

Regards,

Returning after 10 years, it's quite the fun..

Store bought drums 18
Store bought strings 18
Store bought brass 20

Mistmoore Drums 21
Lute of the gypsy princess 21
Gypsy Lute 21

Sharkskin Drums 22
Nostrolo's Tambourine 22

McVaxius Horn of War 23
Selo's Drums of the March 24

What he said vvvvvvvvv

Those are indeed the listed mods of the instruments, they do not however boost the songs in that fashion. An instrument with a mod of 22 will take your song from 100% efficiency to 220% efficiency.

Case in point: Hitting a mob with Chords of Dissonance does 14 damage for me with no instrument, and 29 damage with my Lute of the Gypsy Princess which has a mod of 21. That's 14 * 2.1 = 29.4 which is rounded to 29 damage.

Can someone confirm how hard the level 18 DoT hits with the McVaxius Horn of War, please?

The DoT increases by level. Having a Horn will increase the DoT by a few points over the store bought one, but this ends up being like 10-20 points over the course of the 3 ticks, x however many mobs are in your PBAE.

So essentially the number iee(21) would double it.. if it went to (31) would triple it? and it it was (11) it wouldn't do much.. if at all since it would basically just mean standard damange at 100%.. Is that how I read that?
