Quantity of Abilities

Well that's unfortunate. You seem to have missed my point entirely.

I don't "get bored" because I have less abilities. I get bored because I have no applicable abilities. If every Bard ability applies to every situation, you've made a mindless rotational buffbot, or you didn't make a Bard in the first place.

Yes?

Are you somehow not expecting that?

Now obviously, the plan regarding the overall number of abilities may change, and it's possible that the 35-40 skills wasn't a statement based on some design schema they already did, but instead just an idea of how they would like things to work ideally.

Which is why threads like this are important. Letting Intrepid know that we might not hold them to those numbers could be helpful.
