  • Does songs effectiveness increase with lvl?

    Do our songs get better as we gain lvl?

    Seeing we get a new ballad at lv 55, so before that, we're stuck with a 1mp per tick ballad? Or does it get better?

    How much mp per tick does the 55 ballad gives anyone knows?

    thx

    Songs do get stronger with higher skill. I believe at around 100 my paeon gave an extra 1 hp and my etudes gave an extra 1. Ballad II gives 2 mp every 3 seconds

      Beneficial songs get stronger with instrument level and instrument bonus (Cornette adds to Minuet and what not). Offensive songs get stronger with instrument level, Charisma, and instrument bonus. Get better can mean add more effect, better chance of landing a song, or increased duration (Through instrument bonus).

      Ballad will never increase in the amount it gives, unlike Paeon. Ballad I will always give 1 MP a tick, Ballad II will always give 2 MP a tick. Paeon, on the other hand, will slowly increase the HP it gives, so at one point before Paeon III, your Paeon I will be doing 2 HP a tick instead of 1. Most songs are like this, but Ballad is an exception.

        so does paeon +2 instrument raise that 2hp/sec paeon I into something like 3hp/sec at higher lvs no dobut.

        I keep asking and getting parts of the answer. People say that lvs will make paeon I increase in hp/sec. So does having the HQ insturment give a further increase in hp/sec on top of the higher lvs?

          Instruments offer a flat increase. The base increase depends on your skills. Cornette +1 gives +5 attack no matter what your level and skill is - so long as you can equip it, and you can play one or another minuet, that minuet will give 5 more attack than it would with a non-Cornette +1 wind instrument. (Or string instrument, assuming your wind skill = your string skill.)

          So if your Paeon I is giving 2 HP/3 sec normally, and you play it with an Ebony Harp, it'll give 3 HP/3 sec. (I think - I don't have level 60 yet, but I assume you get 1 HP/3 sec more with Ebony Harp, 2 HP/3 sec more with Ebony Harp +1.)
