Final Fantasy IVEdit

FF4PSP Edward Bardsong

Edward is the only character with the ability to use Bardsong. A harp is required to be equipped on Edward if the player wishes to use Bardsong. This requirement is not applied in the DS version since everyone can equip the Bardsong Augment and only Edward can equip harps.

In the non-DS versions, there is a 1/4 chance of either inflicting Sleep, Confuse, Silence, or absolutely nothing. When used while a Toad, it will have a 100% chance of using Toadsong.

Also in the DS version, Edward learns several new songs, as well as those listed above. Other characters can also access the Bardsong command as long as they have the Bardsong Augment equipped.

Song Description
Lullaby Puts enemies to sleep.
Silent Verse Silences enemies.
Alluring Air Confuses enemies.
Toadsong Casts Toad on enemies.
Requiem Forces the spirits in Edward's Lunar Trial to rest. (Only while the Requiem Harp is equipped. This appears only in the GBA & PSP version).
Life's Anthem Acts like Regen on the whole party for a while (DS version only).
Hero's Rime Increases all stats of the party by 10% (DS version only).
Hog Call Casts Pig on all enemies (DS version only).
Hastemarch Causes all party members' ATB gauges to fill extremely quickly (DS version only).

Edward returns as the only character with the Bardsong command. And like its predecessor, a harp is required to be equipped on Edward if the player wishes to use it.

Guardian's Ballad Cast Protect and Shell on one or all allies.
Healing Harmony Cast Cure on one or all allies.
