Poem of Bragi is a Bard song that speeds up the spellcasting of nearby party members.
Overview
Poem of Bragi is one of the most prized support songs in the game. It shortens both the cast time and the after-cast delay of party members in the song's area, letting casters chain spells far more quickly. Like all songs it drains SP each second, slows the Bard's movement, and fades shortly after the party leaves the area or the Bard changes maps.
Mechanics
- Cast time reduction = (10 + 2 × SkillLv)%
- After-cast delay reduction = (10 + 4 × SkillLv)%
- Area of effect: 7×7 around the performer
- The song plays for up to 3 minutes; the buff lingers for 1 minute after an ally leaves the area.
- Drains 1 SP every 5 seconds while performing.

Notes
- The cast time and after-cast delay reductions are fixed by skill level and no longer scale with Musical Lesson, DEX or INT.
- Performing a song lowers the Bard's movement speed; Performance Discipline reduces this penalty.
- The song is removed when the Bard changes maps.
