Harmonic Spell


Rules Questions


A couple of points that I didn't see a clear answer for when I searched

Harmonic Spell

1) Do Cantrips count? ie does a bard with this have effectively unlimited rounds of bardic music, provides he uses a cantrip each round...

2) "You can switch from one bardic performance to another as a swift action when you cast a spell while maintaining a bardic performance." Can you re-start a performance, for example, Weird Words ?


1) Yes. Those are spells. That seems abusive at first glance, but, well, you ARE giving up all your actions to do so. Not as great as it sounds in a combat situation.

2) I'm not really too clear on how Weird Words work. The wording is a little vague. The effect seems instantaneous, but it doesn't say that the music stops when you use it, like some of the bard spells that affect music. I'm not positive, but if it works like normal music, restarting it wouldn't be necessary. You just switch to that performance and continue as normal.
