Musical instruments can be equipped and used with the Perform action. Bard characters will also use their instruments when casting spells.

Playing an instrument[edit | edit source]

Instruments can be played with the Perform action, utilising a Performance skill check to distract and gather NPC's. A successful check can result in tips.

In order to play an instrument properly, a character must have the "Musical Instrument" Proficiency, granted by taking a level in Bard, successfully performing with Alfira in the Emerald Grove, or taking the Performer Feat.

If a character is Proficient with Musical Instruments but does not have one equipped, they can still use the Perform action by Whistling.
