You can roll drow, but you'll thank me later ya didn't
As a human bard, you're spells will have a higher DC if you use your extra human bonus feat on
spell focus: enchantment than the racial +1 cha a drow gets. In addition human grants you healing amplification
and about 50 more hit points by end game. On a CC bard, that's a game changer.
I'd recommend using the
Mississippee Queen II template I provided. Just swap out
quicken feat for
spell focus: enchantment feat. Later on (waaay later on), after you loot a bunch of high end gear, you may very well want to feat swap back to Quicken.
End game Stats to shoot for on a 28pt Mississippee Queen II Crowd Control haggle bard:
32 STR: 14 base + 2 tome + 6 item + 3 abishai + 1 human + 1 exceptional + 1 lotd (+ 2 rage + 2 yugo)
28 CON: 14 base + 2 tome + 3 exceptional + 6 item + 1 lotd ( + 2 rage)
46 CHA: 18 base + 5 levels + 2 tome + 3 enhancement + 1 human + 3 exceptional + 7 item + 1 lotd + 2 ship buff + 2 capstone (+ 2 yugo)
Thats exactly -2 strength from a tweaked out 32 point build of the same ilk.
Anywho, that's my case going human over drow. If you are really insistent going drow, the bard community may give you some tips (or I can) to get you set up. Another possible path is going half elf.
Any way you go, you MUST start in really enjoying your bard. If you dont know
exactly why you have chosen the path you took, ask questions or stop building him. Enjoying your bard is your NUMBER ONE, most Uberlicious item you'll ever find for your bard God. And that's the straight up.
