[QUOTE="Greg K, post: 4188154, member: 5038"] For myself, it is Bard Songs and Bardic Lore with charm and illusion magic. At least some skill in Diplomacy, Intimidate, Bluff, or Gather Information. Uisng that as a base, I could see multiple paths/builds - an arcane bard: Either a bardic sage or somebody that picks up arcane spells randomly. - a divine bard: a religous lore keeper adding diviniation and cure spells. Maybe, also turn/rebuke undead - a nature bard: a lore keeper with druid spells and spells to control animals and plants - a spirit bard: a tribal lore keeper using totemic magic with spells based on totem (s). Turn/rebuke spirits - a roguish spellcasting bard: an arcane caster with a more roguish skill bent. - a more martial bard that gives up spellcasting for more combat ability - a more roguish bard that gives up spellcasting for more larcenous skills and sneak attack As for the jack of all trades, I never liked that approach as the default.
