I'm confused about instrument swapping for the dots - it seems at least for the regen song, if you swap out your lute, the next tick of the regen song won't have the instrument bonus. Does it not work this way for the dots? Apart from getting that initial higher damage, it doesn't seem like swapping out instruments is going to help that much, but again I may just not be fully understanding. (only lvl 8 bard atm)

The way it worked on live, and the way its supposed to work here is, if you have the correct instrument equipped when the cast message hits, the instrument bonus lasts for the entire duration of the song. This should work all the time with the exception of if you play the song again, with the wrong instrument, before the first casts duration is up you lose the bonus. Instrument swapping works here on P99, but not always, still have it not work sometimes if I swap out instruments at the last second. However, for the most part, it works as its supposed to.
Swapping instruments for dots while AE kiting is key. Brass for DDD, Strings for CoD. Nice to get a regen tick in with lute as well, but getting double dmg from DDD is needed, especially if youre going to take hits when you swing in to cast it.
