NO.  This will be exploited by reds.  No thanks.  You need to learn to work your suits better I think.  Of course a sampire does not need this  did you ever make one ?

Well, why is it that, at least to my understanding, only Chivalry's Cleanse by Fire or a Greater Cure Potion when wearing +50% Enhance Potions can cure through Lethal Poison (level 5) ?

Wrong. Arch Cure has no problem curing Lethal Poison. Neither does bandy healing with GM Healing/Vet. Way back in the pre-AoS days, Lethal Poison pretty much was a damn near incurable death sentence, but only Silver Serpents and GM Tinker Trapped Boxes (Explosion Trap would insta kill though) could inflict it. Come across a Silver Serpent in the T2A jungle, and he Lethal Poisoned you? Better start running back towards town before you die, just to make the trip back to your corpse faster. Today though? Lethal Poison is basically an inconvenience now, no longer the Death Sentence it once was.

Poison has become so easily mitigated nowadays, that Nox Mages are basically extinct.

I am praying hard for a non shard bound Fey cameo…

But a cameo, or any talisman would be redundant with Fey slayer on it, since the Fey slayer, although its a superslayer insofar as it affects several creatures, in reality acts as a single slayer by damage output, dealing by itself the 300% max amount of slayer damage possible. It was shown a few days ago.

Hmm, how is the talisman redundant when it is still useful in dealing full 300% damage? I can now use non-slayer weapon and have an extra slot freed up for other spec - which is quite reasonable and not op. 

Those without the fey slayer talisman will then need have fey slayer weapon.

How would it be exploited by anyone? What a dumb take.

Many reds use EP in their templates.  Given the chance to add more they will undoubtedly take it so they can change suits    Get it now ??  Nor so dumb really is it ?

But Jack, that isn't "exploiting" it. 

Any character that builds EP would use such items. The way it was phrased makes it sounds like specifically Reds will "exploit" these items. It sounds like you are referring to this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game_exploit 

You should consider using a different word than "exploit" if you aren't referring to an exploit as defined in the article I linked above as other people will think that's what you mean.

But I still can't figure out why you specifically call out Reds as if they specifically are getting something out of this that other characters are not. Would you feel like explaining?

You are correct, it would give versatility and add options. I'm so used to just use fey-slayer on my weapon with a spider cameo for TW, that I didn't think, hehe, but yes, more options are always a bonus!

Many options are good unless it's a equipable instrument

Agree and still do not know why you want to equip an instrument  unless its like the Booze Bottles that you can hold in shield hand and does nothing.  4x 120 Bard is plenty powerful.

As is your sampire but you still want a slayer tali and how would it impact you at all

What stats would this instrument have?  You gonna go with what they design? Mesanna did not seem to thrilled about it.

Or you just want to hold the slayer instrument like a Tali.

The only one handed instrument would be a tambourine all others require 2 hands to play.

It would definitely have at least a 50% chance to Rock.  And a 10% opposite sex mob attraction.

if bard can have mastery where his whistling and singing is as powerful even without instruments ... Like Cacofonix in Asterix.
