Report #1768
Skillset: Music Skill: SongDurations
 Org: Glomdoring Status: Completed Aug 2017
Furies' Decision:
Sure. We will also potentially look into adding a skill that pauses a song until
next used or attacked.
Problem: Right now bards generally need to write triggers to remind themselves
when to renew their songs-- this is a variable amount of time for every bard, as
well, depending on a large number of different factors (including artifacts).
This report aims to remove the need for bards to track their own song duration.
[A: 6 R: 1] Solution #1: When a bard's song reaches 60 seconds before it
 fades, give the bard a message / prompt that the song
 is fading shortly.
[A:12 R: 0] Solution #2: Have the message fire at 30 seconds instead.

This doesn't remove the ability to keep your own timer, of course-- you can
always use your own and ignore the prompt (and if you refresh before your timer
gets to 60s, you wouldn't even see the prompt).

Would prefer 30 seconds

Added that as sol2.

Sounds like a nice QoL thing, sure

I would prefer both 60 seconds and 30 seconds, that is what I do with my
personal timer

This seems like a good idea. Support for either/both. The 30s sounds more useful
to me.
