Let bards Play New World's guitar hero.

Let bards play (both main and 2nd archetype bards) New World's guitar hero style mechanics to enable long term buffs for those that are in range. Not only is this fun but it also gives them a utility outside of combat that fits their role and aesthetic. This gives those that wish for more instruments involved their fix.

I personally really enjoyed new worlds music skill so much because you can group with others, build up a song piece by piece, or just play the same song with different instruments for a different vibe. I found myself logging in every now and then just to play this mini game because I enjoyed it so much.

The idea of incorporating a "guitar hero" style minigame for Bards in Ashes of Creation sounds fantastic! The music system in New World is indeed innovative for an MMORPG, offering a minigame experience that enhances player engagement and adds a unique layer of gameplay. It would be interesting to see Ashes of Creation adopt a similar approach, where the effectiveness of buffs could depend on players' performance in the minigame. Not only would this make the gameplay more interactive and skill-based, but it would also allow players to connect with their characters in a creative way.

It could be particularly rewarding if higher performance in the minigame led to stronger buffs, providing an incentive for players to master the musical mechanics. This system would add depth to the Bard class and offer utility both inside and outside of combat, enhancing the role-playing and community aspects of the game.

Could not have said it better myself.
