So you won't use it to gain obscene amounts of xp, oh well. It's handy in mpg trials like destruction where the mobs are unmezzable and any situation where you want to kill a bunch of weak mobs at once (no max limit, unlike caster targeted aoe nukes). It also works decently as a backup slow against resistant mobs with it's lower resist check, assuming you dont stand next to any mezzed mobs. It would be nice if people didn't whine and figured out a use for songs like a good bard should.

How true. I don't know how many times, as a druid, people said don't bother with Dire Charm or don't bother with mele skills, etc. etc. I usually find a use. Dire Charm got me a ton of AA's and through my 60's. I don't use it a lot now, unless I'm helping in a lower zone or farming something. And mele has saved me a ton of times when I've been low on Mana and didn't have much else to rely on other than my proc'ing weapon.
Wasted Rune

What the hell is your problem? lol I mean do you just want SOE to hand us the holy fooking grail and say "Here...I dub thee more uber than all other classes..." I mean we cant ALWAYS get ******* songs. But this one aint that bad. 130 damage a tick with epic equipped. You take that and stack it with the 3 other high hitting AE dots and you can handle yourself well in lower level zones taking out many mobs at once. I used the previous AE's to pull every mob in CC to zoneline and kill at once for ore. Every orc in zone. Saves a ton of time and we are the onyl class that can do that. If another class managed to not die from 40 - 50 or orcs hitting you at once (Yes they are mid 30's but lil hits add up) then they would still be here til the second coming killing them all. Songs like these have many advantages. You just have to be a good bard to appreciate them.

On a side note I havent seen the full extent of the bard AE nerfage. If they put a max number of mobs affected then yes this will reduce the affectivness of the song but is it still worth whinning about? lol No.

Wizards can also manage a good AoE smack, and have also pulled all the orcs in CC for a good AoE

Absolutely atrocious

Stupid stupid stupid. Why bother to put a damage on AoE songs with the nerf. And they KNEW they where going to nerf the damage on AoE songs. This shows such an incredible lack of forsight that is it amazing. A blind man could avoid tripping in an area unknown to him without a dog or cane better then SoE can develope spells.
What do we gain?

Between the nerf to the PB AE Bard songs as to the range and damage, this becomes worthless. With no increase in the slow, what do we gain using this?
