Hey, all. I just joined a PbP game that starts at 16th level. I wowed the GM with my all-roleplay entry, got admitted... and realized I've never played a spellcaster beyond 3rd level.
I could use a hand. Here's the Bard's Spell List and Masterpiece List (linked for your convenience!), and I'm kind of lost.
I like the spells that do sonic damage. I went with the Sound Striker Archetype because I like it so much, but as much as I want to be able to be all banshee screaming and melting people's faces with wikkid violin solos, I can't help but think that going all sonic damage will mean I'm not fulfilling my role, especially at that high a level.
Number of spells/masterpieces known:
0th - 6, 1st - 6, 2nd - 6, 3rd - 5, 4th - 5, 5th - 4, 6th - 2
I'm not looking for anyone to give me a list and send me on my way, but a little guidance (updated guidance: I've read Treantmonk's Bard Guide, and it's great, but the Masterpieces have changed things a bit) in trudging through an expansive list (to my eyes, though I know it's got nothing on the Sorceror/Wizard's) of spells would be much appreciated.
Thank you!
