You can blend the power of your performance and spellcasting.

Prerequisites: Bard 1

Benefit: You can incorporate the casting of a bard spell with the action of initiating a Bardic Performance. To do this, you increase the action required to initiate the Bardic Performance as described in the bulleted list below, and choose a spell with a casting time of no greater than a Standard Action. By doing so, you initiate the Bardic Performance and cast the spell at the same time.

  • If your Bardic Performance requires a Standard Action to initiate, activating Spellsong requires a Full Attack Action (a standard action + a move action).
  • If your Bardic Performance requires a Move Action to initiate (when you have at least 6 levels of the Bard class), activating Spellsong requires a Standard Action (or the first attack in a full attack action).
  • If your Bardic Performance requires a Swift Action to initiate (when you have at least 11 levels of the Bard class), activating Spellsong requires an Attack Action (a standard action, or any attack in a full attack action).

Spellsong can only be used when you first initiate a Bardic Performance. It cannot be used with a performance you are sustaining from a previous round.
