Traits

The traits that increase the damage, power, and outgoing healing bonuses for the Major Ballad, Minor Ballad, and Perfect Ballad also affect the buffs that are applied with Improved Cry of the Chorus in Resonance - Stance, Dissonance - Stance, and Melody - Stance, respectively.

Equipment

Equipping a songbook with the legacy Cry of the Chorus Cooldown reduces the cooldown to a minimum of 30 seconds.

Effects

Using this skill applies the  Cry of the Chorus and  Cry of the Chorus Silence Immunity effects to yourself.

It also instantaneously applies three ballad buffs; which buffs are applied depend on what stance is active when the skill is used:

• When used in  Dissonance - Stance it applies the same buffs as three  Minor Ballad ( Ballad Damage Bonus).
• When used in  Resonance - Stance it applies the same buffs as three Major Ballad has three versions depending on the current stance of the Minstrel:
• While in  Resonance, the skill will heal the Minstrel's fellows.
• While in  Dissonance or  Melody, the skill will damage a single target.

For specific information see the individual article for each version:

• Major Ballad (Dissonance)
• Major Ballad (Melody)
• Major Ballad (Resonance) ( Ballad Healing Bonus).
• When used in  Melody - Stance it applies the same buffs as three  Perfect Ballad ( Ballad Power Bonus).

These buffs are applied without triggering the ballad skills themselves, so the other skill effects (for example, the damage normally done by Minor Ballads) are not applied, and the cooldown of the ballad is not triggered.
