Hello Fellow bards:

My question involves mezzing multiple mobs while keeping songs playing or melody.

I can't seem to make it work. I am a low level bard, perhaps that's the reason?

Let's say I song mez and hit a mob, then I would like to switch to another mob while song is still playing. It won't mez the other mob unless I manually recast. Am I doing something wrong or is it not possible?  thank you in advance for your help.

 Melody is a pretty lousy way to do mezzing, at least for me, it's easier with full manual control. If you start singing mez on a mob and leave it running, it will continue to mez that mob until you stop the song. It doesn't matter if you have anything targeted or not, or switch targets. When you start the song, it plays on whatever is on your target at the start of the song. Leaving it running continues to refresh it on the song's original target. This is why you can start casting mez on one mob, and switch targets and melee a different one.

In order to mez a new target, you have to start a new mez song with a new target. If you want to use /melody, let's say mez is spell gem 1 - you can do /melody 1. /Melody 1 will restart the mez song each time for you, it's up to you then to make sure it has the target you want before the next song starts.

If I'm mezzing one mob, I often leave my melody running and stop it after the third song, and sing mez, then restart the melody again. I choose a song I don't care about having up for my fourth melody position, and that's where I manually insert mez, between restarting melody again.

I agree with Freedom.  When I mez, I don't worry about melody...we can usually keep 3 mobs safely under control with a resist here and there.  Don't worry about melody with mez, make it a manual process as mentioned.  I.e, in your hotkey turn attack off, switch to your air bandolier, and cast # where mez is memmed.
