Suggestion: Bard Offensive and Defensive Stances

[Avaela]

<p>A lot of us have wanted this for a long time and it really shouldn't be difficult to add. Here's an example of what I think they should be:</p><p>Offensive Stance</p><p>- Increases STR and INT by __</p><p>- Increases Slashing, Piercing and Ranged by __</p><p>- On any successful attack this spell has a chance to cast Falcon Punch on target of attack. This attack will trigger an average of __ times per minute. If a melee attack is used, only the primary weapon can trigger this effect.</p><p>  - Inflicts __ (mental for troub, disease for dirge) damage on target.</p><p>- Decreases Defense and Parry by __</p><p>Defensive Stance</p><p>- Increases AGI, STA and WIS by __</p><p>- Increases Defense and  Parry by __</p><p>- Increases chance to block with a shield by _%</p><p>- When target is damaged with a spell this spell has a 20% chance to cast Song Barrier on target's attacker</p><p>  - Inflicts __ (mental for troub, disease for dirge) damage on target.</p><p>- When target is damaged with a melee weapon this spell has a 20% chance to cast Song Barrier on target's attacker</p><p>  - Inflicts __ (mental for troub, disease for dirge) damage on target.</p><p>- Decreases Slashing, Piercing and Ranged by __</p>
