Instruments are not only used in combat by minstrels, but can be used by any class to play music. Only the minstrel has direct access to all instruments. If another character wishes to learn the skill for a particular instrument, they must find a minstrel who is above level 30 who will mentor (Instruct) them in the use of that instrument. There are some advanced versions of these instruments that are designed to be used by minstrels.

  • In  Scribe Stance these skills allow the Minstrel to create Instruction manuals for other players.
These manuals do not require the Minstrel and the trainee to be in proximity of each other, as Mentoring does.
For example,  Mentor : Horn becomes  Scribe Manual : Horn, which allows you to create a Manual of the Horn.

The cooldown also extends to 10 days.
