Hello!
I've just been experimenting with a new Skald build. I was just wondering what rage powers anyone out there would recommend for their rage songs. I've been looking at the totems and some other rage powers. Just wondering if anyone out there has had much experience playing a skald.
I just threw together a couple of lists of some of the rage powers that I've looked at and grouped them together as Totem rage powers, and those that are not totems (that I've had the time to look at). Any comments anyone could give me would be cool.
I'm also kind of curious as to what rage powers I haven't listed people have used to good effect with skalds.
Thanks in advance for any advice!
Rage Totem Trees:
- Beast Totem: buffs allies with natural attacks and armour
- Celestial Totem: good vs evil nasties and quick healing
- Chaos Totem: only really useful when all you'll fight are lawful types
- Dragon Totem: kind of heavy on prerequisite tax
- Elemental Totem: Not as versatile as Elemental Rage tree
- Fiend Totem: Only really useful for all-evil parties (ever so nasty!)
- Hive Totem: Only useful when you know you'll be facing LOTS of swarms
- Spirit Totem: Lots of extra damage, but useless against undead
- World Serpent: Really good versus outsiders and many kinds of DR
Other Rage Powers:
- Elemental Rage tree: can pick and choose type of extra elemental damage
- Powerful Blow: extra damage per hit is always useful
- Renewed Vigour & Regenerative Vigour; gives allies and skald extra healing (a bit redundant with Skald's Vigour and Greater Skald's Vigour, though.
- Swift Foot: good for extra mobility for your party while song is on
- Linnorm curses: that lot is just plain nasty (I likes them, I does!)
