*** Spells ***

- The mana cost incurred by fizzling now includes focus effect and specialization savings, reducing the amount of mana that is used on a fizzle.
- The bard fizzle cap has been increased from 95% to 100%.
- The bard command '/melody' has been changed to now attempt to re-sing a song that misses a note, resuming the melody chain once it's successfully done so.
- Specialized bard songs (mez, charm, stun, etc.) will now have a 2% fizzle rate, given max skill and level-appropriate stats.
- General purpose bard songs (regen, haste, speed, etc.) will now have a 0% fizzle rate given max skill and level-appropriate stats.
