![]() So does the lvl 18 dot have a larger range than the lvl 2 dot. Because I am having a hell of a time dotting the mobs I kite. Spent like 30 minutes today practicing and couldn't get a "winces" message at all even though I did everything Hmotzart was advising. I had the target circle in my lower right hand of the screen and yet it still wasn't hitting the mobs. Does anyone have any advice?

I don't use Hmozarts method, I use the ol' mash turn key method. Using that method I have to spiral a little closer to get level 2 dot to stick, meaning pushing the key in for a little longer and making a tighter turn a second before the dot finishes singing. | |||

![]() Okay great, I'm lvl 14 now so only a few to go until I can use the new dot and really let loose kiting

![]() if you're having trouble with lag when you dot you can try turning down (or off) your spell particle effects in the display menu. this seemed to help me quite a bit.

![]() I just noticed that this is currently the most viewed and most responded-to thread in the screenshots forum, not that that has any significance, but I thought it was cool.
As for lag, turning Sky off helps too.

![]() Must take a while to gather all those mobs in BW considering if you run too far ahead of the pack then you risk a caster pathing in front of the crowd. Having tried AoE kiting in BW, I can say that it's doable but requires more care than in OT...where I basically could run anywhere and aggro all the sabertooths and cactus and peacocks that I wanted. This extra care in BW diminishes the effectiveness of the AoE technique considerably.

![]() just don't pull sarnaks and you'll never get a caster add unless you directly aggro it. Half the non-casting sarnaks are sowed anyways so they aren't worth pulling.

![]() Hey I just attempted this at level 2 in the freeport newbie area. What I've found is using the hold click and strafe method I can safely apply my dot and never get hit. My question is, is selo's necessary later on for mobs with larger hit boxes than bats/beetles? I obviously don't have selo's at level 2, but I'm not having any issues getting hit.
