Just any low int villager is still meat for bard immune they to fear or notby alex - Log Board
Thus having ability to use at least resist mental. Plus haste was way more available. Plus no edges. Plus...Should I continue?by alex - Log Board
I fought one with Liriana(though he was sword/flail), died only once before figuring out they are immune to fear and so wasting my time trying to make them run after entwine or trying to fiend it. All other fights he was quiet fresh corpse:)by alex - Log Board
Why fight fiend with polearm? It doesn't give enough damage output, chop is almost unreliable, you still get all attacks though distance. The main point in fighting fiend is to kill it as fast as possible. The more you fight it the stronger it becomes. So why not to try fighting it with axes? I had some experience with fighting fiend as cloud giant pole/mace spec. Of 4-5 fiend attempts I dby alex - Log Board
Whirl isn't enough to maledict him quiet enough to be unable to pick intrument. So you'll need to blind him and not be blinded yourself. Plus it would be quiet hard to manage through distortion. Though good advice just maybe not for that build Narclarn has.by alex - Log Board
With my bard if fought strong opponent or more than one I just fled after it and wait it out then reangage. If opponent was weak I could just stay outwaiting it in battle. Just a waist of hurl in other location it isby alex - Log Board
They see opponent writhing - they try to disembowl, but target is just gushing and disembowl is unaplyable so it misses. On other hand what would you like the axe wielding guy to see? That his target isn't writhing yet? Then what's the point of feign? It's quiet easy to figure out without direct info*shrug*by alex - Log Board
And lasts quiet enough, at least if you don't kill impaler from first strike usualy you don't have enough mana to reengage nearby future:) So is with hamstring, artery...almost any bleeding I had.by alex - Log Board
Or wield polearm and bash:) If you have greeting the avelanche that can kill the bard(realy can:)). At least if you'll watch your resist mental that tactic won't let you die. If you still got distortion - run and fight next time.by alex - Log Board
First of all if you have only whirl as maledict don't waste time on it. Even if bard has no +str gear(wich is hardly imaginable) blade of the codex strenght would cover strenght loss from whirl. About dexterity loss...I hardly can imagine longliving human/halfie bard without swashbuckler, so you won't be able to cripple his dodging by dex drop(though dex is still importatnt for someotheby alex - Log Board
Just remember that you can't switch back to your prefered in long-long timeby alex - Main Board
At least in that part resist mental just reduces damage. Try to distort elf paladin with resist mental up*wink* It's just...uhm...When you dispel it distort lands from second-third attempt sometimes even from first. Even vs giant resist mental helps a lot though in that case you at least have chances to land your non-damage songs.by alex - Log Board
Seriously why it should dispell songs???by alex - Log Board
I didn't say they can't. They very well can, but only if person they fight wants to be killed:) I mean there is no way the bard can stop you from runningby alex - Log Board
The main point is "some". Believe me such fiends not extremly rare but much more often you'll get weaker one even with tragic prefered. More than that fiend is the only way how a bard should kill solo. Bards can't permalag you thus the only reason you die to them is your greed to seal the kill and staying too long:) Try to fight people with resist mental up with bard(even clouby alex - Log Board
it dispells stoneskin, protection, bless, detects, frenzy...the only that it doesn't dispel is aura and shieldby alex - Log Board
It costs much less than Ehren..even less than force of personality. Actualy as far as I remember it was one or two positions higher bard repertoire edgesby alex - Main Board
Not sure about 130hp healing with comedy, maybe it's too high. But using tragic with death reed harp I healed about 70 hp at hero, so I bet comedy healing way more than ~80hpby alex - Main Board
And -dex on human bard is even harder assuming one certain edgeby alex - Log Board
Well, I'd say that more likely it's something with Kecaza. Comparing to other axe specilists she dealed much much much less damage to me. Maybe her damroll sucks or weapons. *shrug*by alex - Log Board
