The Return of DR Chant - WCII Intim 12 Bard/6 Favored Soul/2 Fighter

[Bardicus]

Intimidating sucks. Except when it doesn't. So what if you could provide bard songs and swing an Epic SoS when intimidating doesn't make sense and then intimidate for value when it does?

Intimidate for value?! How are you going to benefit the party by intimidating on a bard with no AC?

Shield of Condemnation.

With the tier I FvS PrE you can reduce the mobs fortification by 50% and make them take double damage from alignment and light based damage! And by having access to the PrE yourself you aren't dependent on having a FvS in the party.

While tanking you are debuffing the mob and hopefully mitigating damage via Docent of Defiance procs. So here goes:
