Discordance
With publish 16, Discordance replaced the barding skill “Enticement.”
  • Skill Conversion: the Enticement skill in the game has been renamed to Discordance. Any characters who had skill points in Enticement will have those skill points automatically transferred to Discordance.
  • Difficulty-Based: This ability is difficulty-based like provocation. The base difficulty of this skill check is the difficulty of the creature using the same computations as Provoke.
  • Targets: This ability cannot target player characters. It can target player pets in Felucca, subject to normal flagging rules.
  • Effects: As of Age of Shadows, Discordance no longer reduces a creature’s stats: strength, dexterity, intelligence, hit points, stamina, and mana. However, Discordance reduces physical resistance, all elemental resistances, and skills by up to 20% at Grandmaster and 28% and Legendary. Swing rate, damage, and chance to evade are directly reduced; this is in addition to the skill reduction of anatomy, tactics, lumberjacking, weapon skill, wrestling, parry, etc. Discordance still lowers a creature’s base barding difficulty.
    The effects of Discordance is halved on creatures with a barding difficulty of 160.
  • Range: The base range of all bard abilities is 8 tiles, with each 15 points of skill in the ability being used increasing this range by one tile. Bards must be within this range of the target to use the ability. Furthermore, the bard must remain within this range or the ability's effect ends.
  • Continuation: Once Discordance has been used on a target, the bard must remain alive, visible, and within range of the target or the effect ends.
Many thanks to Nadya Modavia of Catskills, Legendary Bard, for her research on Barding skills.
