Bard Song / Curse Song Table

[Razarr69_ns3]

Has anyone compiiled a table outlining the NS effects of Bard Song / Curse Song?

If not, I can try but I doubt it would ever get finished past level 20 or so, since I usually tire of a toon at that point. I know NS has ?drastically? changed the effectiveness of bard song, which makes proper characer management/building impossible without know where the breaks are in benefits. Myself, I only concern with the AB and AC effects from songs. I would like to know what level grants +1 AB? +2? +3? +4? +5? +? you get the picture. Same for AC bonus and the corresponding AB and AC penalties associiated with curse song. Now that bard song maxes at 32, I can't make a B30/Rdd10 without losing the max song benefits. What exactly am I missing out on? +1 AB +1AC? +2 +2?
I guess a good way to get this table completed would be as such:
If you have a Bard post the bonuses you see at your level on this thread. Eventually, with enough posts, we would have our table. For this purpose, I am going to assume your character has taken the proper steps to ensure his/her perform skill is maxed.

I'll start. Feel free to include other bonus/penalty info if you like.
(Please correct me if I'm wrong)

Level 1 Bard:
Song +1 AB +0AC
Curse -1 AB -0AC

At one time Lokey posted a full table for this. Hopefully he sees this string and can post a copy he has hidden away somewhere.

[DM Fire_ns3]

Not sure if this is same table for NS3.5, but this was posted in NS4 Forums.

Here it is, the bard song part. The curse remains the same(I believe) as in lokey's post.

Holy 'if statement' Batman!

[hiro_ns3]

old dos baby here...so the then part of the if then statement is implied?

Yes. In C if statements use the following format:

Code: Select all

if (condition)
{
   code;
}

The "then" portion is delimited by the curly brackets.

[Razarr69_ns3]

Sweet!!! Thanks a mil!! I'll compile the table and see if I can get it to post in any readable format here!

P.S. Tried that link, it was dead when I tried.

[Razarr69_ns3]

OK folks! Here it is. Yes I know any hairbrained fool coulda read the If statement and figured this out himself, but some people like to see tables so...

The currently understood NeverSummer Bard Song Table looks like this:

So bust out your thinking cap and start designing yourself a bard!

[TGPO_ns3]

Curse song is easy, open up the toolset and export it. Last I looked it was still stock NWN.

[allaKAZAAM_ns3]

It is in the GRIMIORE too!...the Curse Song Table that is.

TY for the table "Razarr69"...now to make the better Bard (then I already have)!!!!!!!!!

Peadur Bloodmoorn

[allaKAZAAM_ns3]

I also when I use my Bard song give a +135 to HP (my Perform is 108 and my lvl is 36...

Just thought I would let yah know...

Peadur Bloodmoorn

[Razarr69_ns3]

Peadur, then your charisma must be 20, as that would give +5 bonus and then looking at the table You see that the HP bonus would be nChr (your charsima bonus) multiplied by 27 and (5 times 27 = 135). If you had a higher charisma, you would get more HP. That is the only non-static bonus Bard Song bonus.

[DrakhanValane_ns3]

What's up with the Will Save at level 27?

[Razarr69_ns3]

Yeah I noticed that as I was creating the table. It is taken directly from the If script that Pros posted though. I'm sure now that it has been pointed out, the DMs will correct the script...
