Bard starting stats

[Saludeen]

I put all my points in dex, then 5 in strength because missed notes will wreck you during pvp, str helps with melee and carrying plate (bards still melee depending on the situation), and cha doesn't seem to make a difference. You don't need alot of gear, but its still worth getting a good weapon early on because melee is your primary source of damage at lower levels. And you'll never fully abandon melee. Buy vendor instruments and ask around for some help with spell money or extra bronze / blackened / etc gear. Make sure you bind your keys because clicking sucks too. I plan on making a complete bard tutorial soon. I'm a new bard on the server (Suif) but I played the old red box as a 50 bard.
