==staccato aoe==
bard feats
why doesn't it affect everything in the square(s) it targets? what case are we trying to prevent?
 
1st [[Arcane Strike (Feat)]]
  Hrrrm.  I suppose it could?  I always thought of staccato being a sharp, precise sort of thing, but we could go that way if you like it better.  I would really prefer to leave it to individual GM's, but our playtester is a bit of a rules lawyer. Which is kind of awesome, the bard writeup is solid now. :D
  1st bonus [[Spellsong (Feat)]]
 
  3rd [[Quarterstaff Master (Feat)]]
 
  5th [[Point-Blank Shot (Feat)]]
===Bard Example Build===
  7th [[Inspiration, Group (Feat)]]
(Probably not actually a legal build; needs reviewed; keeping it here in case we get around to building a viable sample build later, so we can steal ideas from this one)
  9th [[Compelling Performance (Feat)]]
 
  11th [[Discordant Voice (Feat)]]
 
13th [[Fire Music (Feat)]]
15 point buy: Str 11, Dex 14, Con 12, Int 12, Wis 8, Cha 15,
  15th [[Arcane Shield (Feat)]]
20 point buy: Str 12, Dex 14, Con 12, Int 12, Wis 9, Cha 16,
17th [[Weapon Focus (Feat)]] - Quarterstaff
25 point buy: Str 12, Dex 14, Con 14, Int 13, Wis 10, Cha 16,
19th [[Exploit Lore (Feat)]]
 
21st [[Arcane Blast (Feat)]]
Celegian Human stat mods: +2 Dex. +2 Cha, -2 Wis
  23rd [[Power Attack (Feat)]]
 
25th [[Shield of Swings (Feat)]]
Example Feats
27th [[Furious Focus (Feat)]]
 
29th [[Rod Whisperer (Feat)]]
1st Level: Point Blank Shot, Precise Shot.  Harmony is a ray, rays are weapons, these feats work with harmony.
31st [[Master Staff (Feat)]]
 
  33rd [[Deafening Song (Feat)]]
3rd Level: Flagbearer. +1 morale bonus on attack rolls, weapon damage rolls, and saving throws against fear and charm effects for the team.
  35th [[Hindering Song (Feat)]]
 
5th Level: Prodigy. Free skills
 
7th Level: Spellsong.  Sing, and cast a spell to boot, and then maintain the spell and cast ANOTHER one.  So awesome.
 
9th Level: Compelling Performance. Start controlling the battlefield.
 
11th Level: Discordant Voice. Your singing can break glass. Or walls.
 
13th Level: Prodigy. More free skills
 
15th Level: Improved Compelling Performance. Oh hell yeah, SO worth it.
 
17th Level: Improved Initiative. Going sooner in the combat round makes for more contrl.
 
19th Level: Uncanny Concentration. You can perform in a mosh pit.
 
 
This build is a high damage bard that also has seriously good buffing/debuffing potential via spellsong. You will be hitting a LOT with Harmony, and your discordant voice keeps the party doing extra damage. This is a potent addition to any party.
