So if for example you have a critical hit chance of 20% (1 in 5) if you apply Venomous Bite while under the effect of Straight Shot then every time your DoT ticks instead of having a 20% chance for it to crit it will have a 30% chance. The buff of 10% critical hit rate may not seem like much but it not only affects your normal Weaponskills it also affects any Damage over Time (DoT) abilities as well. While Heavy Shot sits last on a Bard’s priority list, Straight Shot sits in the middle (third on mine and most people’s lists). Additional Effect: Increases critical hit rate by 10% Duration: 30s Again much like Heavy Shot a very simple looking skill but one that had to be managed constantly. Additional Effect: 20% chance next Straight Shot will deal critical damage Duration: 10s Your standard Weaponskill, Bard uses a priority list when it comes to what skills to use and while Heavy Shot is at the bottom of that list you will find that you are constantly using it mainly for the Additional Effect, as while at lower levels a Critical Hit Straight Shot may not seem like much once you reach level 70 those proc’s can be used to Refulgent Arrow which is one of Bard’s best abilities.ĭelivers an attack with a potency of 140.

Also all opinions in this guide are my own and therefore please do not assume this is the only way to play Bard.Īlso please can I just say that this is in way a guide to play Bard as optimally as you can. Or turn your enemy into something harmless, like a turtle.Welcome to my Bard guide, I hope you find some of the information below useful and any and all feedback is more than welcome. Simply turn someone into a creature suitable for the task at hand-like a giant eagle to fly or a killer whale to swim through the ocean! Since 5e has a large repository of beasts, polymorph can give your Bard a handy tool for transportation, combat, utility, and more. While I covered polymorph’s more powerful version earlier, I believe this spell is so versatile that it warrants its own spot at the top.Īnd Bards can access it with only seven levels in the class since it’s only a 4th-level spell.Ĭonsidering you can know only a limited number of spells to cast, polymorph is a multi-purpose spell that allows you to transform the target into a beast with a challenge rating equal to or less than its own (or character levels if it doesn’t have one). *NOTE: For this list I’ll focus only on 1st-level spells or higher, so no cantrip choices here. With that in mind, here’s my list for the best spell picks!* I’ve played a several Bards in multiple campaigns and I found that emphasizing utility and support spells with smatterings of damage worked best for me. So players must consider their spell choices carefully, as they usually have limited opportunities to learn new spells or switch their selections. Unlike Clerics, Druids, and Wizards who prepare their spells, Bards have a limited number of spells chosen from their class’s spellcasting list. The Bard’s spellcasting list contains mostly support and control spells which allow them to buff/heal allies, disable foes, and otherwise address numerous situations both in- and out-of-combat.

In Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition(D&D 5e) Bards have full spellcasting progression, meaning they eventually gain access to 9th-level spells-the highest tier of magic. Some typical depictions of Bards portray them as charismatic performers who use their wit and charm to beguile and/or confuse those around them-sometimes with a smidge of magic in the mix.
