Have you tried GMing provokation? It's actually a very difficult skill to raise. Although bardic skills arent effected by anti macro code, you still have to find monsters of the appropriate difficulty and provoke them. They inevitably kill each other and you have to move on and find more monsters. It would be very hard to set up a way to macro provoke unattended. You would need a tamer to get various levels of creatures, and you would need boats or a special setup in a house where you can provoke them and they won't be able to hit one another... as to which one actually takes more effort to GM I'm not sure, but just keep in mind that Provoke is by no means an easy skill to raise.

I don't think so, one could easily set a macro up to provke sheep and be gm over night. There is no difficulty check (at least there should not be one). I will look into it.

This alone will make bards greatly more useful as they'll be able to run multiple fights. This should really help.

This is done for the provoking skill after next reboot.
