A bright tune to soothe a party's wounds.... A brisk march to raise a party's spirits... A demoralizing lamentation to weaken a party's foes... The Bards of Vana'diel use music as their weapon.

A Bard (BRD) uses songs as the job's main advantage to boost the party's stats. A bard without an instrument or a player with the sub job bard can only keep one song up at a time, as opposed to instrument players that can use two. A party with multiple bards may stack more than 2 songs on the party as long as they are not the same song.

Horizon Changes HorizonXI specific changes

  • Moderate changes to Artifact Armor.
  • Significant changes to the relic weapon Guttler.
  • The night flowers that need to be examined while doing the Save My Son can be examined as early as 16:00 and as late as 06:00 hours in game. This may or may not be a bug.
  • Ready wasn't available until 2009. There are only 45 seconds between charges as opposed to 60 seconds when it was available. A maximum of 3 charges still applies but this is now attained after 2 minutes and 25 seconds has passed as opposed to 3 minutes.
  • Every physical and magical damage dealing TP moves are no longer imbued with Skillchain Attributes/Magic Burst Properties.
  • Pets will persist through a player zoning, at the time of writing a feature unique to Horizon.
