HELP [[SRO-R]] Question

Hi, I used to play SRO years ago..
And I decided to get back into computer games so i download SRO-R..

I've never had a European char so i wanted to try a cler/bard because when I played .. they were awesome..

Now i have two level 35 Pure int Cler/Bards and I've found out that in SRO-R .. you dances, tambours, int & str buffs AND bless all disappear if you don't have the harp/cler rod on...

So now I'm stuck.. I'm not sure what to do with my characters..
I know @ level 50 you get a skill mastery reset, but even when I get there.. I'm not sure what advantages Cleric or Bard would have in a party setting..

Could someone please break this down for me.

Hello, and welcome back. I came back to iSRO a few days ago too, and your build cleric/bard, would perfectly fit into higher lvl parties (as you probably know, there is always someone searching for a bard), if you want to go solo, CHI chars are now OP. They have now Lightning/Cold/Fire together.

So it's again up to you, what you more prefer.
