Bard AoE kiting screenshot thread!
 

edit: I cleaned up this post including my long explanation at the bottom because I feel like better instructions have been given in this thread by other posters.
This thread is for posting screenshots of successful and unsuccessful AoE kites. AoE kiting can start at level 2 if you get a SoW from someone or if you strafe kite, so I encourage Bards of all levels to post here.

Link to Cribanox's original thread about aoe kiting: http://www.project1999.org/forums/sh...ad.php?t=11506 (the original post is below, but the thread has some advice from players on hotkeys, zones to kite in, and other related things)

I made a video also. Although I don't use this method anymore I think the video can still be instructive:

Post here or /tell Giegue if you have any questions.

ahhh yes I remember these days :cool:

Im happy to have such recognition and to have been some help to bards but I took the advice down for now. Glad to see some bards putting it to practice.

Hey - I don't know if this was your intention, but the pro1999 site I linked to in my original post has the contents of your post on aoe kiting in it. If you want that removed I suggest you talk to "realpoor" (the site's creator, I think). I could always write up my own (slightly cleaned up) guide and credit you with the original strategy.

ZOMG, My alt may be a Bard now instead of a tank. That is amazing, thanks for sharing.

AH, well that's fine Lazor, not trying to hide it, was just going to perfect and clean up the guide and re post it one day when kunark comes out with leveling areas and stuff.

started AoE kiting today...then I went to forums to see if others also do this and found that many found this difficult at first. You all must be bard amateurs. If you didn't notice diagonal hitboxes were off you're an EQ noob.
