Is this going to be it for bards? I understand if they're working on something else and just didn't have time to get it in the first patch. But please tell me this isn't the only thing that bards are going to get to help us survive in RVR.

An extra 29 dmg to what will still only be an annoying interrupt every 10 seconds?

Wow....just wow

Ehmmm not 29 delve damage... look again.... we are talking about an increase from 89 to 111.

I think it's pretty obvious that they decided to change some numbers, because it's easy, fast and cheap to implement and it won't change the balance. But they can say: "Well stupid cutomer give me your money, 'cause the game is alive and we are working on it!"

[Flatean]

well Concussive Roar delves now at 114. They're increasing it to 143, hence the 29 dmg increase.

Still lame.

Just out of curiosity, do we have a team lead? And before people ask, no i am not flaming Goss if he is still the bard team lead. I just never see any posts from him here or on other boards.

[Sonnenwind]

AFAIK: Goss is our TL. But i haven't seen him active in this board since a year or something.

To the damge increase of our DD:

Just ask yourself who -besides a Battlebard- will skill 44 in music? The 47/44or43 times are long long gone and even then the damage increase is nothing we asked for, nothing we need, nothing that will improve our role as hibs main CC'ler.
