Looks decent to me - except:

Damn, you're almost singled in climbing. Is there anywhere in game that requires 19 ranks of climbing? If there is - I bet it'll be quite a while before you're old enough to need it.

Also, only bard spells? Understandable - I was just wondering your reasons.

[hectomaner]

hell my bard stuck with spellsongs only until he got tonis, then went for MnE

[Czeska]

My bard went with bard songs also, til 1035, then up the MnE list. And yes, on Teras it takes 20 ranks to safely get into the Eye. Not that you'll be hanging with Fire Mages any time soon, I'm guessing.

[Norator]

Was singling in climbin, kinda, cause I was told that once I got 30 ranks of climbin, an swimmin, I'd be set to go anywhere my heart desires. Was singlin in bard spells, cause I wanna get the most bonus possible, not sure when that will become useless btw, from my songs, think it's supposed to keep addin to my AS for a while, an well...that plan there drains my tp's damn near to 0, an sometimes leaves a lil left over for telepathy.

[Nakiro]

30 will get you anywhere, but you won't need them until you're 70ish.

[Chadj]

The way to go, IMHO, is going bard spells untill 1030. This is mostly for the bonus, as 1030 is not very likely to be used at a young age. After that, climb the MnE till 425, then get 1035, get the last spells in MnE, and then single in bard till you get 7x stuff. After that, head back to MnE. Lotsa switching back and fourth, but meh. Just my opinion.

[Snapp]

I went bard til I got 1025.. and am starting up the MnE circle til 414.. then going back. I know I won't use 1030 for a while... shoot, I can't even really use 1025 yet, I just wanted it out of curiosity.
