Bard Guide for p99. part 1

[tcepma]

I am stuck at level 5, and really not sure what to do. I'm too crappy to solo things head on, and the exp is way too slow to do that anyway, and I'm also too crappy at AE kiting with the level 2 spell. Most level 5 zones are too crowded to realistically try to AE, especially since I die frequently doing this. Does anyone know where a level 5 should AE kite? It seems like the only viable solo option because melee is so ridiculously slow.
