Hi guys,
I am asking the community to help me add to it. If you have any questions or comments, please let me know.

Hail.

A note for Bards and DEX. In addition to frequency of weapon proc and (allegedly) increasing the rate at which weapon skills increase, DEX also reduces the chances of a Bard's note being 'missed' and ending the song.

This is noted in the Wiki for Bards, where I did a simple 100-song test with and without equipment. As I explained there:

"In a test comparing 100 songs on a 60 bard with 100 base DEX, 7 notes were missed. On geared 167 total DEX, 131 songs before a single note was missed."

Hope this helps.
