	''Songs'' ~~make up~~ a ~~general~~ magic category ~~available~~ only to [[~~bard~~]]. Unlike other ~~types~~ of magic, ~~there~~ ~~are~~ ~~two~~ ~~components~~ ~~that~~ together ~~determine~~ the ~~skill~~ value ~~for~~ a song's effectiveness - ~~singing~~ skill and ~~instrument~~ skill. ~~There~~ ~~are~~ ~~two~~ ~~different~~ ~~instrument~~ ~~skills--wind~~ ~~and~~ ~~string--and~~ ~~the~~ ~~type~~ ~~used in~~ the ~~calculation~~ is ~~that~~ of ~~the~~ ~~currently~~ ~~equipped~~ ~~instrument.~~ ~~The~~ ~~combined~~ ~~singing~~ ~~and~~ ~~equipped~~ ~~instrument~~ ~~skill~~ ~~is typically~~ referred to as "combined skill" ~~and is the~~ value ~~used~~ ~~to determine~~ the potency and accuracy of ~~bard~~ songs. ~~It is not entirely clear how song [[Magic Accuracy]] is calculated, although it depends on [[CHR]] and combined skill multiplied by a scaling factor.~~		'''Songs''' are a unique magic category only available to [[Bard]]s. Unlike other forms of magic, two distinct component skills combined together calculate the value of a song's effectiveness — a Singing skill and an Instrument skill. The Instrument skill consists of either Wind or String depending on the instrument type equipped, for example either a [[Flute]] or a [[Harp]]. These two skills together are referred to as "combined skill," a value which determines the potency and accuracy of songs.

	~~Additionally~~, unlike other types of magic, songs cannot be interrupted by ~~being struck by an~~ enemy~~'s attack while~~ ~~casting~~, so [[spell interruption rate\|spell interruption]] is ~~not necessary while~~ singing~~/playing a song~~.		Furthermore, unlike other types of magic, songs cannot be interrupted by enemy attacks, rendering [[spell interruption rate\|spell interruption]] unnecessary for singing.

			Bard songs are divided into two primary categories:
	There are two types of bard songs - party-targeted buffing songs and enemy-targeted debuffing songs. By default, with an instrument equipped, a [[Bard]] can place two active buffing songs on party members; any additional casted songs will overwrite the songs with the shortest remaining duration. Without an instrument equipped (e.g. with bard as a sub job), the number of buffing songs a player can cast is limited to one song. The [[Daurdabla (Level 99)]] allow a bard to cast up to two additional buffing songs for up to four total. Similarly, [[Terpander]] and lower level [[Daurdabla]]s allow a bard to cast one additional buffing song, and the [[Camaraderie Harp]] allows one additional buffing song effect to be applied during [[Reive]] battles.

			1. '''Party-targeted buffing songs,''' and<br>
⚫	The same song cannot be reapplied until its current remaining duration is less than its '''base''' (unenhanced) duration. Unique songs will always overwrite a ~~currently~~ active song, but they will ''only'' overwrite the song with the lowest remaining duration~~. There are 12 shared 'slots' for songs and Phantom Rolls. After the maximum is reached,new buffs will remove old ones in order of application~~.
			2. '''Enemy-targeted debuffing songs.'''

			Note: The exact mechanics behind the [[Magic Accuracy]] of debuffing songs are not fully understood; however, it is generally accepted that it scales with the Bard’s Charisma ([[CHR]]) and combined skill, multiplied by a scaling factor.

			By default, a Bard equipped with an instrument may maintain two active buffing songs on party members. Casting additional songs beyond this limit will overwrite the song with the shortest remaining duration. Bard’s 1-hour SP Ability, [[Clarion Call]], permits a third active buffing song.

		⚫	Note: The same song cannot be reapplied until its current remaining duration is less than its '''base''' (unenhanced) duration. Unique songs will always overwrite an existing active song, but they will ''only'' overwrite the song with the lowest remaining duration.

			When no instrument is equipped, or when a player is using Bard as a subjob, only one buffing song may be maintained.

			Certain specialized instruments, including the [[Blurred Harp]], [[Terpander]], [[Miracle Cheer]], [[Loughnashade]], and [[Daurdabla]], enable a Bard to extend the limit to three or four active buffs, and up to five when used in conjunction with [[Clarion Call]].

			It is also important to note that there are 12 shared buff 'slots' between Bard songs and [[Corsair]]’s [[Phantom Roll]]. Once this limit is reached, new buffs will overwrite older ones in the order they were applied.
