This song is almost totally worthless. The snare % much lower than largo's and selo's. And it has no slow component. Equipping a brass instrument does not increase the % snare.
The only advantage it has is that you can equip a brass instrument to make it less likely to be resisted. However, at this level the majority of bards have singing mods to do nearly the same thing for selo's or largo's.
Luckily its at the end of the turn in sequence, So just skip getting it and sell/give the rune to someone who can actually get something useful for it.

From my experience with this song, it regularly wears off before its 18 second duration is up. not sure if this is a bug atm or if this song is random duration same as the level 66 lull line upgrade.

Too many critics play this game. If you don't like it..go play WoW. Personaly I have found this song fairly useful. Yeah it not having a slow factor is cool but te range aint bad and it has a fairly low resist late. I was messin around in Broodlands doin some named. Charmed a spider near the Grel area and pulled the trash named. The spiders BS for 500 so just snare the named and keep runnin in and out hitting it with chants and assonance and randomly snaring to let that pet do its thing. Was fun and a welcome change to "Twist chant, Twist chant, slash wrist" lol It can get boring! I would know...I soloed pretty much to 62.

How would this song be at all useful unless they changed either: the resist check: the range: the duration? As it stands it is middling range, no reist check, and simply abysmal duration, make it a 1 min snare and id use it (if it went live) but as it stands comepletely wack spell <0-

This song as of 10/04/2004 does not exist on live yet. I have all my 66 through 69 songs. Went to turn in Muramite rune for this song...( which I assumed would be the last song to get for 68 )... and notta. Karsor hands it back to me and says something about embers burning in his soul and that he has alrdy gone over that rune. No song , no dice. But I am not dissapointed. Snare is snare . We have one alrdy. And this one looks like same duration so what's the point ? Now if this were real and had a 1 min duration like our slows , then super. I'd buy that for a dollar.

Removed Slot 1: Decrease Attack Speed by 54% (L69) to 55% (L70)
This snare change is good in comparison to the previous small slow increase. Im looking forward to getting this song as it will definatly be useful when i need to slow a mob down significantly.

This song IS however brass based now, ,so with 3.4 mod on Deatrhcaller's Stonewind, it grinds mobs to a halt pretty well.

He was saying that the slow was removed from it, making this song almost worthless. I think I'll stick with my lvl 23 snare, thanks.
This snares better.

Bards have asked for a snare with no slow for several expansions. Thats so we can snare mobs that are slow immune. It may be a rare usage, but it is something that was asked for.

still kinda pointless, since if you cast a spell/song with multiple effects, you get the message 'this creature is immune to the ______ portion of this spell effect.' The other functions of the spell (or song) would still be effective, assuming that it did land, and it's not immune to the other effects as well.

The above quote is incorrect and that's why we got this song.
