Music is the combat skill to equip a musical Instrument, on which a battle tune can be played. Troll, Elf and Genie Students may begin the game with basic knowledge of this skill. Player characters of most classes can (eventually) learn it, with the exception of the top might specialists.
Description
The music skill allows for instruments to be equipped. Playing an instrument during melee combat will inspire the party members and better prepare them for evading incoming attacks. Only one instrument can be equipped at a time, even if more party members have the skill. Expert musicians increase the damage the party does with melee weapons, while masters can play instruments with one hand. Grandmasters gain the ability to make the party evade ranged attacks and do more damage with their own ranged attacks.
