Court Bard - Wide Audience question.


Rules Questions

Wide audience specifically gives you extra numbers of creatures affected when you use a bardic music effect that targets "multiple creatures". I assume this wording is meant to differentiate from bardic performances that simply affect an area (which receive their own expanded capacities via Wide Performance, as noted one sentence prior).

When a bard gets Inspire Greatness at 9th level (something Court Bards still get), it only affects one creature. As they level up, it begins to affect multiple creatures.

Would Wide Audience grant extra targets to Inspire Greatness at level 10 (when it grants its first extra target), when you can technically only target a single creature (it does specifically note that it does not affect powers that only affect single creatures)? Or do you have to wait until level 12, at which point you can normally target 2, and Wide Audience would then grant 1 more, total 3.

RAW, it's pretty obvious that until Inspire Greatness can affect 2 targets on its own, Wide Audience does not apply.

RAI, its a pretty fuzzy to me, enough so that I'm asking for others opinions/dev comment/etc.
