[QUOTE="The Souljourner, post: 1123285, member: 1622"] Tongues/Comprehend Languages: I spent skillpoints enough so my bard knows every language in the PHB. Unless there are languages not represented there (a possibility, granted) that I run into, I'm all set. Suggestion seems like a strange choice, seeing as bardic music reproduces that without using a spell slot. Confusion seems ok, but not as good as I would like. I don't like that 10% of the time the target specifically attacks me. That doesn't sound like a benefit in any way :) I really wanted prestidigitation.... but it's really so rarely useful.... I suppose prestidigitation can do about the same as mage hand (albeit with only a 10' range). I hadn't thought about the doubling up of charm monster and charm person, since I was just kinda going one by one. Hrm... Replacing Charm Person with Nystul's Magic Aura (I actually had intended to take that one in the first place... it's not very useful, but it can be fun :) I think next level I'll take displacement, but for now, I really like glibness, charm monster, and slow. New spell list: 0th: Detect Magic Ghost Sound Light Mending Prestidigitation Read Magic 1st: Cure Light Wounds Nystul's Magic Aura Tasha's Hideous Laughter Silent Image 2nd: Alter Self Detect Thoughts Hold Person Summon Swarm 3rd: Charm Monster Glibness Slow -The Souljourner [/QUOTE]
