What exactly does this song do? I cast it and it says something about changing form, but I certainly don't look any different.
This is the Dirge "Fluff" song. Its merely a "fun" song/spell for you to play with. All it does is if you use it on a group member it makes them cry. It's sorta a funny little thing to do in a group here and there to lighten things up. Not useful for any practical purpose as is the case for nearly all the lvl 20 fluff spells for sub-classes.
Now if we could use it to make a mob stop fighting and cry for 10 seconds, that would be worth something!
Hell, I have no problem with "fluff" spells. Actually, I rather enjoy them. But at least give it some music or a fun /emote (*your name here* points and laughs at *target*. Crybaby!) or something! Just standing there and having someone randomly cry isn't very satisfying.
it makes the target group member do the /sad emote... really really weak actually the /cry one is funny and stands out most people don't notice when i use Melody on them.
Yeah, but the no casting effect makes it a great way to annoy your friends while grouped. I casted it like 50 times last night and in 3-rd person view it really gets noticed. People kept asking what was wrong with him. It was quite a laugh again and again and again.
I swear, it COULD have been a really fun song if it was group instead of single target. Maybe a change to it, something even have everyone whip out a musical instrument, as the bard conducts.
