To answer the question about the faction song, all spells that are supposed to help faction are currently broken. Enchanter faction spells also draw agro the same way that the bard song does.

I started looking into the faction spells, and why they aren't working. I have a few ideas, but still not totally sure where the problem is. But I am working on it.

Good info mroletta~ seeing missed notes would be a welcome change. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Also, seeing when song effects drop from mobs would also be very welcome! (lull fades, Charm break, Slow drops, etc)

Hey man, I know you guys work hard at all this.

Honestly, the enchanter faction spell is mainly useful with the brownie merchants for now (if your agnostic). It isn't until Kunark and Velious where they become uber important. Of course I have no idea what people who picked deities are feeling right now...

I'm sure you don't need it but I'll hapily be a guinea pig if you want help (pun intended). Just toss me 100% rezes afterwards. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Faction song still ineffective.

The "Elemental Rhythms" song is also not getting a bonus from using drums.

"Selos" appears to be functioning as it should though.

/bump.

Recurring messages do not display, like for the song above, "A soft mist surrounds you" was displayed every successful tick, it currently doesn't, same for Hymn of Restoration and all kinds of songs that you leave on for several ticks

Chords of Dissonance always gets casted on everybody in the group, and they have the animation of a bard playing a stringed instrument.

Small, but annoying looking glitch, when using Selo's Accelerando, or any song, when you are moving, the original location you were retains the animation of the song. So, it looks kind of silly to have a bunch of stationary light orbs where you and your party was when you pulsed Selo's.

Bump.

Bard songs do not get 'spell worn off' messages, (mesmerize, snare, etc). I'm fairly certain they did on live but I'd be happy to discuss it if it came in after classic.
