Overview

The Basic Peaceadin is a simple and accessible Bard/Dexxer build that combines Peacemaking and Discordance with Chivalry and a traditional melee weapon.

It is designed to provide strong PvM utility while still being capable of dealing consistent melee damage.

Aspect Options

Lyric is the recommended Aspect for this build.

Lyric supports the Bard-focused portion of the template and complements the build’s Peacemaking and Discordance abilities.

Chain Links are not a major requirement for this build.

General-purpose Bard, melee damage, and PvM links can be added as the character develops.

Codex Use

  • Bard Codex

    • Provides additional Bard abilities to support Peacemaking and Discordance.
    • Useful for improving the build’s overall Bard utility.
  • Swordsmanship Codex

    • Provides additional melee abilities for the Swordsmanship version of the build.

Additional Codex info is in the build card

Equipment

  • Melee weapon
  • Medium armor
  • Standard PvM equipment

A Swordsmanship setup is the recommended starting point, although Macefighting can be used as an alternative.

Farming/Gameplay

The build is intended to be an inexpensive and reliable starting point for players who want to combine Bard utility with melee combat.

Peacemaking provides crowd control while Discordance weakens targets. Chivalry adds healing, buffs, and additional utility, allowing the character to remain effective without relying entirely on Bard abilities.

Additional Notes

This is a strong early-game template that can be developed into a more specialized Bard/Dexxer build later.

The build can use either Swordsmanship or Macefighting depending on weapon preference.
