[QUOTE="MJS, post: 6144242, member: 6747144"] Well. Why we think the fighter is doing the equivalent of mashing X on a gamepad I don't quite see. But yes I balk at not potentially losing the song when hit with a warhammer, I balk at the implication of somehow spellcasting while singing(?), and, thinking also of the oxygen issue, thought a -1 wasn't too severe. All in good fun... Or just consider the song not a round-long action, but a magical bardic phrase, a la "here I come to save the daaaay!", and the effect kicks in for x rounds. Three notes on the horn, and...The player gets the same functionality, but it makes a bit more sense. Then the singing while fighting can become a whole separate feat, or just an on the fly thing that the player can pick the effect of. I'd love to see the Bard have some very fluid, almost wild magic like that. Sorry, I am a habitual rules tinkerer. Not out to ruin anybody's trip. [/QUOTE]
