#BRINGBACKTHEBARD
Absolutely love Grounded, fully 100% (Achievements and all obtainable equipment anyways) completed it up NG+1 dipping into NG+2,
Would've gone further but the beauty of Grounded 2 dropped. Obviously still working their bugs and issues but love every part.
Definitely need more decorative pieces that aren't just the mounts and plushies (Trophies).
Currently at the end of act 1 so now we're just grinding and building nice little themed bases,
However I think it would be absolutely BANGING if we added more Bard esc weapons,
Grounded had the Bard's Tutor and Bard's Bow, But I strongly feel Grounded 2 could 100% bring back the Bard,
Imagine let's say...A Black Ox Marching Drum, quick attacks send out a small wave like the attack of the Mantis,
Charged attack sending out a kinda 'Ground Slam' AOE style attack, if you wanted you could make it give a AOE effect that increases defensive stats maybe?
Other ideas like a maybe a Bass and or Electric guitar (Maybe Bass for Tier 2 and Electric for Tier 3?) That you swing like Sword?
Every hit gives a debuff to surrounding foes or alternatively a fiddle that gives inspiration to your party (Polar opposite of how bows work, you can only block and 'Inspire', no DMG)
Or if we wanna merge it we the Wizard Class, Harp constructed out of...IDK Grasshoppers that are coming out that when pluck it sends a homing note that does blunt DMG and then charged one follows the arc pattern of the current staves.
I suppose in that notion, for solo players those more 'Party Based' instruments could be coupled with Buggies and a Psuedo Summoner?
No clue, just a brain wave I've had whilst bored at work.
Thanks for anyone whom reads this and hope you have a lovely day :)
