Bardic Magic

[lunarionsilver]

I was highly dissapointed by the bard specialization on my first playthrough. I had taken it expecting something it wasn't. Now I understand that DA:O does not run based on a D&D ruleset and that lore dictates all use of magic must be restriced. That said I was wondering if it were possible to create a mod which expands the skills of the bard specialization? I have seen a quite a few like this for shapeshifter which is understandable, seeing as how it's quite underpowered.

 

Back to the point though I feel bards should have access to some limited spells making them more like D&D bards. I've been playing bards for a very long time and would definately like to see something like this come around. If no one has an interest I may try it my self... but that could be disasterious.

 

I was thinking bards could be able to learn certain spells like:

 

Grease

Stinging Swarm

Disorient

Haste or Telekenitic Weapons

 

I know there is a mod out there that adds haste to the bard songs, but I'd actually prefer it seperate as the spell itself if it can be seperated as such.

 

Pretty much spells and abilities that resemble the classic bards.

Stinging swarm and haste are already spells for different classes, it might be possible to add them to the bard specilization and make them stamina based insteasd of mana, as far as making new spells, you might look at this

It focuses on new classes, yes, but in making the new classes he also makes new spells/skills. Good luck (on either having sum1 do this for you, or trying it yourself ^^)
