Bards are one of my favorite classes throughout most rpgs. To not change much of your current idea; I also think the ability to use your magical instrument to restore your run energy just like if you listen to the bards across runescape.

Another way to go about it is make Bard a new combat skill. Bard is one of the best and most diverse support classes. If you have your magical instrument equipped you can use songs as ranged/magic attacks but the main part of the class is to use the songs to buff those around you. Healing Song, Energy Song, Adrenaline Song, Damage Song, Experience song. Imagine recruiting a bard and paying them to stand near you playing an experience boosting song while you skill? Just another idea.

Yes please, could make a power training method in which you have to play with sounds on and replicate sounds that you hear with the correct instrument and in correct pitch.

Also could make it possible to woo Anja with an instrument at 99 music.

I really think this will get boring extremly quickly, just because 80% of the playerbase plays with sound of. I also think the costs of making this skill will be way too much. It will take way too much resources. I think you can integrate the concept in invention where you can create an instrument that can be used in luring monsters/fish or whatever. ||

Totally support this idea, bards are an important medieval class that has been largely neglected in this game. Also love the black and white master skill capes, people will go crazy for this skill just for those capes.

I would also love to see some pvm aspects from this. For example the skill can be used to create new debufs en buffs in combat or non combat aspects of the game. in other mmo's there is a class called a bard this class mostly is a healer / debuff class in most games. If the music skill can also be used to create some weapons wich can be used to buff and debuff players or mobs like a non dps healer kind of player. This style of gameplay can be used to improve groupbossing to the next difficult level. Nowadays most bosses use a tank and dps. But there is no dedicated healer in runescape yet. This way 8 man bosses (before 7 man) can be created with a healer in mind. Whos task is to keep the party alive as long as the boss fight lasts. Bosses like aod, yakamaru might be easier with this but the next gen of bossfight with this healer type player in might become more difficult because when he dies the entire party dies. The same gos for the basetank like how it works now.

Personly i think most people dont like this at first but most people like pvm. Not all of them like dps or being a tank give those people who are very good at oreantation a role too.
I also wanted to add when this skill might be inplented some time in the future it needs to bring some sort of pvm improvements or a amazing skillpet to make the playerbase happy. From what i understand updates without any toughts on pvm dont useally become very populair. Except player owned farm but it has lots of cure animals and pets and even 2/3% more dps against raxor so even this update has pvm improvements.

thanks for reading Jager
