Here is a master list of the
Old Frontier RA for all 3 realms. There are alot of similar things to the new system, but activated RA won't have multiple ranks and will cost alot more points, not to mention have pre-required passive RA. It's easy enough to play a Bard in PvE, but in RvR is where your skills are truly tested! The more I think about it, the more I think I'll have to add to the group, if I go with Mentalist again, it'd also allow me to backup our primary Mezzer if needed.
Maybe we can roll 2 chars at the same time (one caster and one melee), if we're on more than others, so we can bring either one depending on what the group needs more during the main sessions.
