Wanted to say thanks Naiya. Appreciate the advice and insight.

Sounds like I am taking the same path as you have. I had nothing to base my decisions on except for what I had focused on in other games. Now, with your insight, I realize I am focusing on the path I wish to take. Though I don't know all the mechanics of VG (still very low level) I "assumed" that like EQ1, my goal would be to not get hit. Since bards don't have the luxury of running in circles while playing 4 or 5 different DoT songs in VG, I need to find my style of play quickly to better prepare myself for the future. Songs and dances will help fill in some of the gaps, but I can see that your choice of stats can greatly change your strong and weak points.

I know that none of that is earth-shatteringly new and may even seem evident by more experienced players. This is still a huge learning process for me so please forgive me for what seems like ignorance.

Thanks again Naiya.
