[QUOTE="StreamOfTheSky, post: 4627026, member: 35909"] Max concentration. And get tumble high enough to not need to roll in general when using it (+14 total modifier), after that it doesn't matter as much if you advance it. Perform actually should be maxed in at least one kind of performance, so he gets his bardic music abilities. Use magic device is awesome, but the DCs are tough at lower levels. Sometimes I put only 1 rank in it to use it if I need it, and then later on down the line max it out. Typically around level 8 or so. You want +19 at least eventually, since all wands and staves are DC 20... The rest is largely up to what he likes. Spellcraft is always handy. Could get stealth and scouting skills, social skills, or something else. He'll have good charisma, so social skills might be the best thing to go for. If you want, look at the skills he's interested in and see if there's synergy bonuses. Diplomacy gets them from 3 skills! -- all on the bard list -- for example. All synergy bonuses come from 5 ranks in the skill, so it's genrally good to plunk down 5 or more in skills that give synergy to something else. [/QUOTE]
