Ok so I started playing a bard just a couple months ago (for years I used them for PL bots, but never played them), and I am just really dis-satisfied with what we have to manage songs. MQ2Medley made by winnower is pretty good, but still doesn't play nice with MQ2Cast. Don't get me started with MQ2Twist which is extremely inefficient. I am going to make an include file for use with any macro for auto casting on a bard or you can just rock it 100% of the time. The reason behind this is I feel like bards are not performing at the level they should. My hope is I want to make a bard that can sing at a 100% efficiency. Even when a human is playing they seem to stream a ton of songs into a /melody command that is also inefficient as it doesn't account for missed notes and such. By doing simple /cast commands I am able to read when songs are ready and also read the buffs/songs to know what to cast.
Here is my logic so far:
-Cast Aria of ****
-Cast Song of Suffering line (melee heavy group) and Caster song for caster group
-Cast War March
-Cast Chorus for regen
On incoming (no SHM/ENC in group)
-Cast Requiem of Time
On Fleeing Mob
-Cast Snare Song
On Extended Targets = 2
-Cast Single Mez on XTarget 2
On Extended Targets > 2 and NPC Count with radius 30
-Cast AE Mez
Obviously the human will do the pulling or the macro the inc is tied to, but what other logic am I missing? What else does a bard do in the group that I don't have above?
