Best thing I have seen in EQ yet... (video)

[VincentVolaju]

So I have only really been playing EQ for a couple weeks now, so I am sure this isn't going to be some surprise to any of you. But when I saw this shit I was I thought it was the most insane thing ever, I had to FRAPS it lol.

I come out of Paw to see if theres anything to solo outside, since I cant really get any groups atm. When I run out a lil bit I see a dude running anyway from what looked like 1 or 2 mobs. So I am like, Ok Ill go root one and heal the guy to help him out. When I get up closer I see theres like 10 things on him so, I was like alright eff healing him then it isnt even going to matter hes dead anyway. Then I notice the ground is covered in bodies everywhere! And this dude is just running circles around the area killing everyone!!! I was like WTF ?!?!?! Is this guy for real?? So I /who him, Lvl 26 Bard named Bono.

My mind was blown, so I frapsed it. Best thing I have seen in this game so far, hands down. This dude is insane.

I've watched Bono do his swarm kiting magic several times. He was like... level 23 yesterday. It's ridiculous. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I thought it's impossible for bards to swarm kite on this server due to hit boxes?

[azxten]

Yeah I was SoWing him so he could miss selos twist while I quad kited gnolls. Takes a lot of skill to AE kite like that. Swarm kiting with charm is easy. I tried on my Bard to do some AE kiting with just 2-3 mobs to see if I could get the DoT on them without being hit and I couldn't do it the whole fight so I never tried. When you get to like 10-15 mobs it's instant death if you get in melee range once.

Oh and it takes like 10-15 minutes to finish a single kite like this, it's great exp but too taxing for me in terms of paying attention for so long on a single kill over and over.

Are you guys kidding or do you really think he's using some macro program? If he had SoW, like was said, I can sort of see it happening. I saw something like that on Live back in the day, and I don't think programs to do that stuff even existed at that time.

I mean, if he's running using the mouse, he could easily (okay not easily) be doing some crazy twisting on the keyboard.

Twisting isnt hard guys, everyone makes it sound difficult lol

[dunevenker]

lol

Bono got it from me.

I'm Tamborine, anyone seen me in EK from about 16-24?

I was aoe kiting over 50 mobs (at once) at times.

Good job Bono, keep up the good work. We need to show everyone that just because our melee dps stinks, we can still rock the house. (no pun intended)
