Title says it all really - I've recruited Garrick into my group in my current BG run but I can't find any documentation for what his bard song actually does so not sure whether I should have him using this ability or being a backup archer during fights.

It increases dice rolls results. Which ones varies with user opinions, installed mods, and game engines.

Thanks.

Do you know what it does for a standard BG1 + TOTSC installation with the official patch?

Also does its effects improve as the bard levels up?

I dont know, this info need someone who actually looked into the disassembled code. Bard song does not improve with levels (although in BG2 it does for some kit classes, and there is a better song as an High level ability. Were you to play bg1 in bg2 engine these would apply).

here is what it probably does or supposed to do:

#133 (0x085) Spell Effect: Luck Non-Cumulative [133]
Parameter #1: Statistic Modifier
Parameter #2: Irrelevant
Description:
Applies the modifier value specified by the 'Statistic Modifier' field in the style specified by the 'Type' field to the targetted creatures luck. Luck affects the minimum damage caused by a weapon (up to the normal maximum damage of the weapon) and the attack roll modifier (up to a maximum of 20, excluding natural attack roll modifiers, e.g. high STR, invisibility etc) by 'Statistic Modifier' amount. 'Statistic Modifier' also affects the damge rolls of opponents (in feature blocks, not extension headers). The effect sets STATE_LUCK.

Thanks

That at least gives me more of an idea of when it is most useful to have Garrick using his bard song ability instead of fighting.

The basic BG1 bard song grants a +1 bonus to attack rolls, a +1 bonus to saving throw rolls and a +2 bonus to morale to your party (including pets etc).

You could also add the song mod ... You can get general class info here or read about EVERYTHING here.

Thanks. The thing is, bard song effects are hardcoded. Or at least i couldnt find the appropriate .spl file for the default song in either bg1 or bg2. Mods just replace the original song completely.
