Bard Double Attack

Post#1 » Thu Apr 29, 2010 5:32 am

I noticed that bards have no skill in double attack and on live they did...they even have aa's for increased double attack chances. Are we able to give bards the double attack skill to run accordingly with lets say repoiste (capped 135 level 70) or something around there ?

Unless it was changed since I quit (which was a good 4 years ago), bards have no double attack on live. They have dual wield, and yes harmonious atk for double atk via aa but they never had any actual skill. They aren't meant to be dps ><

They do get DA in later expansions beginning at lev80 (same for Beastlords).

But not on EQEmu :)

patches 2006

- Bards and Beastlords gain the "Double Attack" skill at 71 (Sep. 19)

This means this have happened somewhere somewhere during Serpent Spine/Burried Sea time frame.

Time to bug the Emu devs to code this in ;)

Hey guys, was just curious if bard double attack ever got coded in to emu? I love my bard regardless, but would be awesome to finally get DA on the server eventually. Just curious if there are any updates :)

I parsed the BL double attack AA and it is surprisingly good when maxed. I don't have the numbers in front of me since I lost that parse in a HD death, but IIRC it was firing around 3/4 of the time with ferocity 5. I would believe bards would be similar.
