Bard question

So it seems that a Bard who want so swarm kite could do so with minimal gear. What is a decent startup (ie banded etc) and do stats even matter to kite like this?

nothing matters but your instruments and jboots

HP gear if you can get it, though from what i've read 30+ getting caught by the mobs will kill you. Currently i'm lv21 kiting and have survived a few run ins a pull and lived, this will change later though. those 5ac/55hp rings probably saved my life on a few of those incidents.

Jboots would only mean you dont have to twist selo's, could do sow pots too if you really felt the need. But a bard using jboots or sow potions is like a magician or necro never using there pet, you "can" but why the hell would you?

two 5ac/55hp rings, if you got a jewel crafter friend you can get them cheap(er) but otherwise 250pp ea. well worth it

Mistemoore Battle Drums and Lute of the Gypsy Princess if you're going to AoE kite. Anything else doesn't really matter. Learn to strafe kite and you can do it f rom level 2. about 30-45 minutes a level all the way to 50ish.

Strafe kiting is merely running them in a circle strafing right? Well holding the forward and strafe while mouse clicking etc...

Is there a post where I can see the process for pulling this off?
