Greetings guys,
I have a RL buddy that's a 53/54 bard that I've been duo'ing with on my (55) necro. He's established Burning Woods as his homebase for the time being.
When we duo in that zone, we've found that root rotting appears to be the safest approach. Fear kiting would be great-- we've tried it quite a few times-- but the zone simply has so many wanderers/adds.
We will sometimes still get adds when root rotting stuff. I'm trying to determine our best approach for dealing with adds. While I can screaming terror them, that only lasts so long. My bard buddy has been fearing them for the time being but I wondered if it might make more sense for him to try to charm the add?
I realize that his ability to stack dots will be limited depending on how many non-dot songs he has to keep up. Any feedback/ideas would be awesome. Thanks!

If your goal is to avoid adds I wouldn't suggest fearing them away...you might wind up with some additional adds if you fear a social aggro'er.
For efficiency, if you get an add I would suggest either bard charm or mez while twisting dots on the first target. The charm is also an option, especially if you are fighting mobs that can be hit by the lower level (mana free) bard charm. It also depends on how much work the bard is willing to do...for sure root rot is the easiest (as in practically zero effort) so perhaps the bard also wants to take it easy.
The best option from your OP seems to be just to find a good area that is unlikely to get adds. Let the bard pull to the safe spot, especially if you need time to med up between kills.
