[COLOR=#800080][b]Bardic Ritualist[/b][/COLOR] is at least interesting in that it lets you take Master Mixer and gives you 1/2/3 free bard rituals per day. Of the Bard feats, only [COLOR=#800080][b]Bard of All Trades[/b][/COLOR] and [b]Walk Among the Fey[/b] hold any interest, and neither strike me as worth the entry feat. There are a couple Power Swaps of interest, there are a couple lazy Bard powers ([b]Echoing Weapon[/b] and [COLOR=#0000ff][b]Prescient Warning[/b][/COLOR]) as well as a few good Utility Choices ([COLOR=#0000ff][b][/b][/COLOR][b][COLOR=#ff0000]Revitalizing[/COLOR][COLOR=#0000ff] Incantation[/COLOR][/b][COLOR=#0000ff][/COLOR], [COLOR=#0000ff][b]Mantle of Unity[/b][/COLOR], and [b]Haste[/b]) Lacking the ability to gain a Virtue, I don't think any of the PPs are worthwhile, and the Fatesinger ED is really just comparable to Warmaster.
