Would you mind expanding on that? I'm starting a bard soon and I thought that was how you killed multiple mobs while kiting? AoE?
AoE kiting is what everyone for some reason calls swarm kiting/swarming on this server. AoE kiting is when you run around in a circle while do your AoE song that hits all the mobs.

Swarming is actually when you gather up a bunch of similar faction mobs, charm one, and then send it into the pile which draws aggro from all the mobs on the same faction. A mob can be beaten down super fast this way. Before the pet is killed by the swarm of mobs, the bard breaks the charm and then dots the low-hp mob to death. The pile of mobs "swarm" the charmed pet; hence this is called swarm kiting.
