when i first started using MQ about a year ish ago i had a lot of trouble with bard ini. while i could get KA to somewhat run i found that a lot of the bard ini were more complete for higher levels of play (110+). if i can suggest using rgmercs until that point it might save you some headaches. ive just recently started using KA on my bards as it allows a lot more customization. but if your anything like me (slow learner with editing) dont get turned off KA just take your time and soak in what you can each time you try. it gets easier.
Oh and post questions here the community is always very helpful and supportive!!!!
