As your ability in your song specialization increases, you will be able
to compose new songs. You can write your own song and set it in
stanzas. Each song can consist of up to 9 stanzas, and certain powers
can also be invested in each stanza. Powers are divided into 3 types:
Low (L), Medium (M) and High (H). Low types can only invested in stanzas
1-3, medium in stanzas 4-6 and high in stanzas 7-9. Low stanzas
generally have simple effects, medium stanzas have stronger effects, and
high stanzas have very strong effects. Some song powers
need to be targeted and others will create a passive effect that stays
around you. As a general rule, you will not be able to stack passive
effects.
When playing a custom song, it always begins in stanza 1, each time you
play the song, it progresses to the next stanza until the song ends or
you change to another song or a certain amount of time elapses,
whichever comes first. Note that before the time elapses, you can take
other actions so long as you continue your performance before the time
elapses.
