[QUOTE="Shroomy, post: 5213325, member: 32739"] There's only one crunch element that is specifically geared towards bards and that's the heroic tier feat Stirring Song of Baator; it provides temporary hit points to an ally when you hit an enemy with a bard attack power that has the fire or fear keyword. However, there are some other things that may appeal to you. The arcane, divine, and psionic paragon paths can all use Charisma as their primary attack stat and there are several general feats such as Clever Tail (allows you to draw or stow an item as a minor action with your tail, as well as perform Thievery checks with it), Glasya's Charming Words (a paragon feat that gives a +1 feat bonus to attack rolls with the Charm Keyword and when you score a critical hit with a charm power, the target is also dominated) and Secrets of Belial (another paragon feat that allows you to swap a bard utility power for another class's utility power) that fit with the general "bard" concept. Also, depending on how you multi-class, the other feats may also appeal to your character. There also a couple of magic items such as the [i]amulet of seduction[/i] and the [i]mask of the impish grin[/i] that provide item bonuses to such skills as Diplomacy and Bluff, as well having some interesting daily powers and properties involving charm and illusions. The epic destiny, Heir to the Empire, provides a bonus to your Charisma and Intelligence scores, provides a bonus to several skills, and has some abilities that may appeal to bards. [/QUOTE]
