Peacemaking/Provocation/Discordance Question

So I just finished making my character.

Template is

GM Archery/Tactics/Magery and
GM Music/Provo/Discord 120 Peacemaking

Fun fun fun to play for sure.

My question is why does Peacemaking fail at ~80% of the time on higher end mobs such as wyrms/dragons while Provo even when it was 80 would succeed ~80% of the time on the same mobs. Same goes for Discordance, at GM I will sometimes not get a successful disco off on either mob that I easily provoked on the first attempt.

The strength of the debuff is good, there's no issue there but the amount of fails, especially with peace after investing the time and gold to become legendary seems to be disproportionate. I have no problem with the random peace timer and having to reapply it, I would just like to see the success rate brought in line with Provo.

Despite the issues it is a really enjoyable build!

Thanks for looking @Adam

Slayer instrument is necessary. Peacemaking in your instance isn't very useful like you said...even when you succeed on a higher end mob it breaks fast, and when it takes damage it breaks instantly. Peacemaking still has it's uses, but it could use a buff in that regard. Disco is great when you succeed imo. Not sure it needs a buff but I think powerscrolls to 120 would help

Agreed on disco not needing a buff just some PS to allow it to actually be useful

Ya barding has been totally fucked here from the get-go. I have enjoyed the easy-mode of Provo, don't get me wrong, but it's 100% backwards here.

Provo deals damage and results in kills, Peace requires something else to kill a target. So it truly makes no sense for their difficulty levels being inverted. Peace should be OP and Provo should make you work for it. Disco could use some attention (staff said there would be PS some day) so that people actually use it, however since it has the ability to weaken a mob dramatically it shouldn't ever have a super high success rate.

You know...the way a 120 Provo can never, ever fail? Unless you use an opposing slayer on two high, high level monsters with one of them maybe being paragon. That is the one time I have failed in like 15 months of being 120 Provo.

So 120 Provo is infallible and everything else is shit for bards, basically.
