Why would bards switch out instruments?
So i'm really new to Everquest, and i'm pretty confused about something I had read. Why would a bard switch out instruments while in combat when you don't need the instrument equipped to use the spell?

the instruments improve the effect of the song considerably. better instruments have a greater effect. Alot of the strategy to bard grouping is determining when to 'buff' your songs with instruments; and when not to.
http://wiki.project1999.com/Thrasos%27_Bard_Guide wiki should explain better than I can. =) I just re-started myself; but my brother mained a Bard in live back in the day; which is the only reason I know this.. heh. | ||

Bards are awesome, get the best loot you can and just stand there and health/mana! The group will love you. (sarcasm on) Bard is the "busiest" class to play in a group. Hope you type fast!

Thanks so much for the answers guys. I thought my chord of dissonance was doing low damage and then I realized that when I put on my string instrument it doubled in damage. Makes a lot more sense now. That being said, as far as swapping out weapons during combat, is the only way to do this by having the weapons on your hotbar and swapping with mouse or is there any way to swap them out with macros?
