Replying to old threads here, but liked the idea of bards getting over being drunk faster. Perhaps a slight variation on that would be a way to fake a sip of a drink. Everyone else would see you take a sip... but you would see yourself "pretend to sip" or something.

This is something that is perfected by professionals of all kinds who work in and around bars.

In response to bard percussion instruments.. I want me some bongos, dangit.

Instead of bard-specific instruments, I would suggest a wider range of things to do with them, aside from tuning them and becoming an adept.. Hell, why not make instruments? We can already make shoes and arrows and swords that no one wants.

Other types of bard guild skills I wouldn't mind seeing:
Getting over being drunk faster!

Tricks like pulling something out of your sleeve or coughing it up, like the rogues can do

Instead of war cries we could have rallying chants or some such.

We don't necessarily need something new and unique, maybe just something modified from a pre-existing guild.. hell, I'd be fine with sweeping.. just so we ahve something. Some reason to actually be in the bard guild. It's been years.

I can only echo the sentiments of this last post, we have been waiting an inordinately long time for even one guild skill. It just doesn't seem to be a priority for some reason. I still have hope that perhaps it will happen in our lifetimes though.

I was pretty sure we--the game population as a whole, not necessarily Bards--had been told that future Guild development was something that was... not necessarily actually going to be developed.

Then again, I may be mis-recollecting.

xxx swings a closed fist at you!
AS: +244 vs DS: +519 with AvD: -3 + d100 roll: +42 = -236
A clean miss.

You weave another verse into your harmony.
CS: +522 - TD: +288 + CvA: -8 + d100: +6 == +232
Warding failed!
You find a thread matching the harmonics of your song and pull it loose.
You no longer feel a sense of protection.
Your concentration on unravelling the threads of mana is broken.
