Sorry Draggor but I haven't, and I haven't heard about any either. It's something I've often wondered about, as I loved the instrument in Icewind Dale that when played would call up some berserkers to fight for you. That was awesome! I this game, it seems that there aren't any special items just for bards (or any other class) that I can think of, but I'll stand corrected if I'm wrong.
There are four, bardic instrument types in the game. The mandolin, a flute, a drum, and a horn, there are also 'magical' versions that don't seem to do anything special, there are also new magical instruments that do work, Drums of panic, horn of blasting, horn of goodness and horn of evil. they're gonna be available in the next patch.
As Allyx said, the next Co8 mod pack will contain a few more instruments for bards. Right now, the only way to get a bardic instrument is with your starting equipment. You can't buy or find any in the game, which sucks when you start as another character class and want to add a few bard levels.
Great news about the new instruments in the next patch, i was just wondering about the other standard instruments besides the mandolin that are available in your starting equipment. Under what circumstances are these available? Is it alignment? I've only had a chaotic good bard so wouldn't know (though I'll probably play an evil-type party next time!) Cheers
Fantastic! That is good news for us bard lovers, bout the patch and all. I guess it is now back to eager anticipation of the new patch.
morpheus... ...Could we make non-magical instruments available to buy? I've been trying to add the item enum's in invensorce.mes but I can't get it to work.
nevermind. Drop this file in your data/dlg file to add the option to buy normal bardic weapons from the carpenter, the first time you speak to the carpenter, and after the carpenters quests are done as the carpenters are supposed to be busy (and the dialogue file is already chockablock).
