I didnt leave, my computer was just broken for a while. Now that Im back I have a question that Ive been meaning to ask
For bards, what gem do you use for armor? Not trying to steal anybodys uniqueness here or whatever jsut need some help cause my bard has been doing very low damage at phants. I use lazulite (sta/agi) for all my armor and then amber and onyx (str and dex) for jewelery. If there are any advised gems for armor please let me know

Take into acount your options. Note, with bracers you have: 6 peices of armor (can't spell). And with out bracelets (which I strongly advise using if you don't already, that is unless your a tank, even then tanks could use bracelets some times) you have 5 pieces of jewlry. That is, 11 things that add to your stats. With bracelets you have 7 pieces of jewlry (ring ring, necklace, earing earing, bracelet bracelet) and 5 pieces of armor. Bah so in that case you have 12 things going to your stats.
Your idea seems ok, what I always did on spife (although his power pools are different then a bards) is I would (or was going to) max str and dex and put the rest to either: agi for power, or sta for hp. The reason why I didn't do this is because str ended up not maxing out >.<. So what I suggest, if your not doing this already, is use bracelets, because if all your jewlry is going to str/dex then thats 2 more items going to str and dex.
My other sugestion would be to even things out, and by that I mean, with bracelets (w00t broken reccord MC achieved!) you have 7 pieces of jewlry and 5 pieces of armor, I know your splitting your armor between agi and sta per piece, but I don't sugest that with jewlry (str/dex, I don't even know if you can). So What I would do, is use a piece of armor for either str or dex, so now you have 8 pieces going to those stats, so you can have 4 for each, or 5 and 3, what ever you feel like doing. Although you do need power (that your current armor plan does give you), you may be fine loosing a few pieces of armor for your damage.
Yeah I hope that helped. Sorry if it's a little un organized

On my bard, I have a lot of different kinds of armor. I like to keep my melee stats sort of even, with dexterity being higher than the others. I usually where Takish/Zoisite armor, Lazulite, Enstatite, and whatever gems add to Stamina, Agility, Dexterity, or Strength. For jewelry, I try to have stuff that adds to dexterity, stamina, and charisma (I forgot twhat they were, but one of them was called Opal).
my bard owns ur bard
Your bard sucks. If I could duel you, I would own your ***.
Level 28, 180 CMs speant.
why dont u have em on u character list, mines only 21 so of course ull own me, but when i make my war imma own every char u got
I have too many characters to post them, and I ran out of colors for my profile. I bet you'll never beat my Cleric (Unless you got to a higher level than him).
On my bard until the mid 40's i used 3 dex armor 3 str armor, then on average used about 2 dex 2 str jewelry then 1 hp type jewelry. At about 45ish i basicly used a full set of heartsblood armor and dex str jewelry. With buffs i had my dex/str maxed
your probably doing crappy damage seeing the phantoms are way higher than you are
Agreed, 41 is sort of low for a meelee
41s not to low, the highest they get is 49 or 50(dont rememebr)
I think its 51, I went there on spife recently and I think I conned a db phant, coulda been a spirit I don't remember
i farmed there for soul mastery at 51 and never saw a white one, it could of been phantoms only maybe

You can try focusing on maxing str/dex first then your power pools to try and increase your damage as much as you can. But what are the levels of your group mates? If they are higher, they may just care about you being a battery and buffs first and damage second.

That is 8-9 lvl difference, melee hits start getting weak when you start to fight mobs about +5 to you.

That's the whole point of OFF mods. Not sure how many you can get at that level, but I'm sure with enough of them, you'll do great damage.
If this was the case, I would rather get an Enchanter instead of a Bard. I haven't seen any groups on my cleric where the bard would just act as a buffer/battery, especially if they were a lower level compared to everyone else.
well sop welcome back...i thought you left.

Everything is built around formulas, the hard parts figuring out the formulas
From what i could find
elf bards can get 1 under 41
human bards could get 2 lower then 41
I just skimmed through hodstock cm list so i could of missed 1
