[QUOTE="StephenHawking, post: 4339172, member: 70591"] [COLOR=White]So, as much as I like the bard paragon paths, been thinking of... Divine oracle (Cleric PP): Terrifying insight means x2 rolls for VS will attacks. Many of the bard spellsongs are just that. I'd actually not pump wisdom much for this build, only enough to enter the pp since only 1 attack is actually based off wisdom. This build would play mostly like a controller, using fascinate song, and with 2 rolls, would almost never miss. Justiciar (Paladin PP): The aura-like bonuses just fit so well with a bard theme. Weaken is also amazing as a condition for just an ap. Wizard of the Spiral Tower (Wiz PP): While you can't use the implement bonus, The One Sword, along with multi-class feats for wizard powers means this PP can be very handy. Bloodmage (Wiz PP): The temp hp from some powers, coupled with healing hymn, keeps this pp less painful. Its only for wizard powers though, so use dailies like bigby's icy hand with wintertouch and lasting frost for maximum effect during a fight. Blood action + Fascinate: 2+ targets restrained, and take ongoing 10? Yes please. Shadow assassin (Rogue pp): Lot of fun here, mainly, I like the riposte for the dex bard. Halfling bards can especially enjoy this because their racial helps that much for it, and the action point thing is useful for any class that wants to hit. [/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
