Hello, I am seeking advice on choosing or keeping my second skillset.

I am partial to Mentalist as my primary skillset and currently have Bard as my secondary.

I figured the waves and songs would stack but you need to cast a wave every couple of seconds and it seems to stop my songs from playing. Having to retoggle the song every time would be super annoying in the long run.

If this is not the case and I am doing something wrong I would like to know but I am looking at Hammer / Unarmed / Staff / Ice as alternative secondaries.

Running around as an animal does not interest me.

I also wanted to be able to do more damage than I am doing currently as it has been a bit hard to solo as mentalist/bard.

I noticed hammer has electric abilities like mentalist does, but in gorgon explorers character builder I do not see any flat electrical damage mods for gear.

Thoughts appreciated.
