Whoa, I'm not sure where the random GvG is coming from in here but it needs to stop. >>They do, it's called Abandoned Heart. Luckily they only charge 3 slots since bards get the lore primary discount. Abandon Heart is not getting a discount because of lore primary, there is no such thing. It would be costed exactly the same if any other guild had it. In general cyclic spells cost 1 slot less than a normal spell would because you can only use one at a time. >>Hey, don't forget to put in that it's cyclic so no one else but bards can use it. The fact that it's an enchante is why it's signature to Bards, not because it's cyclic. >>Because having 3/4 of your spellbook (and all of the good spells) locked is fair. It's not even half, and I don't see why people have such an issue with Bard spells needing a confound (in this case their affinity for music), but no one cares that many Paladin spells require soul state to function at full power or at all, or Moon Mages need Moonbeams or their prophetic connection to operate and so forth. Also I've already stated before, we need to do a review of what spells are signature and what aren't - there's several spells I can think off of the top of my head that could easily flip, and other restrictions that could be eased. It's going to take time to get it all right. >>Super fair, especially since bards can memorize almost any of the warrior mage spells with no backlash chance! The mechanics do not work the way you apparently think they work.
