  If my character has 98 Music Buff Effect...
  
  [SPOILER=" "]Talent: 5
  
  Skills: 30
  
  15 Playing Instrument
  15 Song
  
  Instrument: 40
  
  8 Gloomy Sunday: Break Seal
  6 Gloomy Sunday: Artisan Upgrade
  2 Gloomy Sunday: Gem Upgrade 1
  20 Playing Instrument Effect 20 level
  3 Allegro
  1 Chord
  
  Equipment: 7
  
  3 Encore
  2 Solo
  2 Solo
  
  Titles: 16
  
  8 Battlefield Overture
  8 Starlet
  
  Total: 98
  [/SPOILER]
  
  ...and the following performance bonuses...
  
  [SPOILER=" "]x1.07 Normal w/Normal Performance Effect 7 level
  x1.1 Excellent
  x1.3 Inspiring[/SPOILER]
  
  ...how are these the resulting damage multipliers?
  
  Normal: 43.44%
  Excellent: 44.66%
  Inspiring: 52.78%
  
  I'm failing to account for 5 music buff effect somewhere. Any ideas?
  
  Edit(1):
  
  My normal performances without titles, enchants, or instruments result in +28% damage.
  
  5 Talent
  15 Playing Instrument
  15 Song
  
  20 x 1.35 ≠ 28

  do you think magic attack or int has anything to do with it? iirc My mage elf plays enduring at ~2 ranks higher than normal and I dont think I had any equips. not sure...

  Yeah I'm stumped too. You have an extra 5 base or something stupid and I dunno where it's coming from. I wonder if it's something with GM?
  I can test on my ruairi char with GM Bard later when I get home and maint is over and see if I get a similar result.

  One question, can the music buff effect from playing instrument and song stack together ?

  Its a bug with the GM bard bonus, seen it a few times, dunno what causes it.
  Possibly in bard talent?

  Yes, they stack. Regardless if you're singing or using an instrument, the music buff from ranking the skills is permanent stats, just like dex or str or whatever.

  That was my assumption, since nothing else really gives a flat 5. My GM bard char can rb atm, I can possibly test it in multiple talents. But most importantly, what's Kaeporo's current talent?
  
  
  Now that servers are up:

  GM, Master title, Yvona, r1 both relevant skills of course (5+8+8+15+15=51)
  So my numbers match perfectly. Currently in gunslinger talent, if Kaeporo is indeed in bard talent, I'll rb to test it. (thinking about it tho I'm not sure why he would be)

  As someone who abused this to no end, I can confirm for you that while you are under the Bard Talent, the Music Buff Bonus and Music Buff Duration values of the Talent are doubled after you rebirth, until you relog or change channels.
  
  3-minute Overture hooray!
