So how exactly does bardic inspiration work?

Mainly just on activation times. I know you need to hold it for 15 seconds for it to grant the buff to teammates, but is that also true for yourself?

Or is it just roll the die to grant the buff for yourself?

    I think you have to finish the tune. if you interrupt it, the buff icon goes away.

    U can’t interrupt animation, otherwise effect will be cancelled

    You need to play for the full 15 seconds in order for it to linger for 90 seconds afterwards. If you stop playing before 15 seconds, then the buff ends immediately and it will still go on cooldown.

    Well I’ve been educated, I thought you could cancel the song as soon as the dice rolled, I didn’t realise you had to wait the full 15 seconds.

    Side note to the thread's actual topic, but I really don't get why you now have to wait like 5 full seconds to actually see what number you roll, upon release you only had to wait about a second. Furthermore they seemingly removed (or at least made it so you can't activate) 3 of the potential 4 music variations that, again, the perk released with. All very trivial complaints, I know, but it removed a lot of charm from the perk.

    I think it was just a typical BHVR moment. Initially yeah, you saw the roll number instantly, then the perk was bugged and had no effect, then they fixed the effect and the perk worked but they bugged the roll speed and it was made slower by accident.

    Then they decided to not touch the perk anymore becasuse probably "well it is working now".
