Nerf Bard AE Kiting

[Syft]

Everyday I see a group with Bard AE kiting, pwrlvling noobs up to 50 range, which is fine on red99. But on new server none of this BS should go down, they nerfed bard AE's to 4 targets on live because of this nonsense.

I don't want to see anyone on teams ding 20 lvls a day because they had a bard friend. Bard's can solo lvl with swarming just fine, but I don't wanna see neckbeards with 7 alt's lvl 40 day one because they happened to roll a bard.

and YES I am here to shit in everyone's cool-aid!

Weren't you against getting Highsun nerfed cause bards were seriously underpowered? Or was that Twainz or Dullah.

I was the one asking for highsun to be nerfed, along with unlimited pillar range!

Most of the things I ask for changes on, hurt my classes the most!

Cool my memory is fuzzy. I kinda think AE kiting should stay in some form, maybe remove the ability to agro more then 16 mobs.

Unless the Ae is nerfed you'll watch Nihilum have lvl 55's by weeks end on teams server without this mechanic it can't be done.

Mark my Word's, on live this wasn't done as much as it was here, and it's a slap in the face to anyone who is lvling up the right way.

bard AE is classic, get over it. so incredibly easy to fuck a bard over on a kite on pvp anyways. when was the AE nerfed to 4 targets? certainly not during the era this server emulates.

new server starts w/o kunark so we'll be in the karanas for the most part, which.. who cares?

p.s. 2 grp slots left for bard plvl on new box l0l

PvP hinders all xp gains.

There's literally no reason to nerf bards in PvE. Sorry.

This is a horrible thread.

Bard swarm kiting is fine. Definitely nerf aggro kiting, that is very overpowered. As Bardalicious stated, on a highly populated server, you get shiiiit on swarm kiting. Not to mention the lvl 2 AE is so flippin short range, the bard is so close to the train that if you disrupt him in the smallest way he has a high chance to die. Now the xp is great if you can have a group protect the bard, but with the newfound xp bonus, I think most people will be able to focus on grouping and actually lvling rather than afking while a bard swarms. Before the xp was so bad it wasn't worth it to group in dungeons (non kiting). To fix this just keep focusing on dungeon bonuses, like Unrest's bonus, and you will surely counter the bard kiting IMO. Overall, bard is king of solo xp, can't handicap that bros. ALSO, fix charm kiting.
