Chant Linger Questions

[jintegrity]

Is there a good resource to read, or a kind person willing to explain, about Chant Linger?

To clarify, I'm wanting to play a Chanter that does something besides the boring ol' Dragon Thrashed.  I want that Aefyllath Ues Mith Fyr, Sure-Handed Ila Nocked Her Arrows with Speed, and other chant goodness. Wanna know about linger and INT values to maximize the potential of these other chants.

Linger time is influenced by INT. The more INT the longer the linger time. Linger time means that the effect of the phrase still works although you can already start to sing the next phrase. Like an echo - the effect lingers.

Then there's also Brisk Recitation: it shortens the chant time (not the linger time). 

So let's say a phrase has 6 secs chant time and 6 secs linger time (like Dragon Thrashed). With 20 INT you'd have 9 secs linger time now. And with 50% Brisk Recitation (level 16) the chant time would be only 3 sec long. So 3 sec chanting + 9 secs linger for you Dragon Thrashed phrase (or Mith Fyr).
