Bard AoE kiting screenshot thread!

[Daldaen]

Hehe I was too overweight and got ruined twice in a row just now Q_Q. Really wish hitboxes on mobs weren't so big.

and i want to use the kite method to catch up in levels[/QUOTE]

Just make sure there is no one around who can cast root or snare...

So I've been kiting on the red99 beta using the strafing method and I'm finding that it's kind of weird in South Karana, because the centaurs move faster than the aviaks/gnolls, so I keep having to finish off the centaurs first before I can begin killing the other mobs. It's still good exp and extremely fast but I'm wondering if anyone knows a way around this problem? I guess I could kite in circles again but I find that really draining.

That pic brings back so many memories. Nice job!

I was handed equipment and 100pp in gold from a random ranger as a welcome, thank you very much!

I didn't get an after picture, but you'll have to believe me that I managed to kite 26 mobs without taking damage once. :-)

Edit:
Got a SoW and Skin like Nature from a kind druid and it made me want to try out the willowisps at level 7.. so I did. Kited 6, but looted one before thinking to take a screenshot!

Edit 2:

Here's a video, I'm pretty sure I almost get steamrolled halfway through. Still need to set up hotkeys so I can save my mouse clicking hand from death.

That is the first time I've switched instruments while kiting (hit level 8 so I could do stringed instruments) so go easy on me, haha.

I was able to do all of the aviaks, gnolls, and centaurs without a problem, although for some reason it took a little bit to get used to. I thought that the hitbox of the chargers was bigger than the rest and that was what was screwing me up, but after maybe three or four goes I never really had a problem after that. I was doing strafing with mouse turning and had no problem. I guess this really doesn't help anything, but I guess Ill add my SS of kiting them [You must be logged in to view images.

By strafing I assume you meant autorunning and strafing while making circles with the mouse. I find if you can keep it steady and slide a little larger circle then swing in a little bit more towards the end and you can catch them all. I do agree though, after 5-6 kites my hand needs a rest =/

Im finally finishing up OT and I finally learned how to make almost as pretty of circles as Hmozart [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
