there was a topic on another forum showing how u can stack a dance of the same type (eg. wizardry 1, wizardry 2, wizard 3 etc) together...
does anyone know exactly how to do this (provide us with an example if possible)?
screenshot below supposedly was done with only 3 bards

You have to have both bards do the dance at the exact same time to pull it off. However, it is just visual and really doesn't 'stack' if you cast 2 dances of the same effect. Whichever dance is first on your active buffs is the one that is actually in effect.

Sucks if its only visual, then again it would suck at DW South with capped Wizards with 300% mag % increase.

Let the middle bard to the tambour, make sure both of the others have the tambour but are no in range of eachother. Let them both cast their dance and move them to the bard with the tambour up. Then just delete the dmg buff and you'll get both back.
If you dont know what ur talking about then dont talk at all... And that search button is still so usefull.

The "bug" indicated by the topic starter is with the same book, not book 1 and 2
i also think it's most likely a graphic bug, no way 3 bards can cast that many buffs

If it is really working then Joymax musta' screwed something up with the most recent patches. I've tried this in the past and it doesn't do a dam thing. Show me a ss where someone is using the highest lvl dance buff by itself and state what the highest dmg done was with
several dmg tests. Then do this 'glitch' and do the dmg tests again.
If I could actually get online now days I'd do it myself.

The bug you're referring to I already know and can do...ie. having magic + wizardry or fight + valor etc.
This one is stacking of the SAME dance (similar to how u can stack bless from high lvl descending to low lvl). Supposedly the bards in party must have different levels of the dance they wanna stack and even so, some of the bards do not even require to dance...you're(the non-bard person being buffed) suppose to just keep click-cancelling the dance you wanna stack so it should split and continue so on.
eg. wizardry 3 + (another dance book) -> *click-cancel wizardry 3* -> wizardry 3 + wizardry 2 + (dance) -> *click-cancel wizardry 2* -> wizardry 3 + wiz 2 + wiz 1 + (dance)...something like this.

They will cancel since it's the same book, even if the lvl is different
