Etiquette: swarm sniping

[garfo]

What's the etiquette on, say, poaching a mob or two from a bard swarming in a noob zone or second tier noob zone (like qeynos hills)? Do we think this will be generally accepted on the first few days of green?

[MaCtastic]

I feel like swarming like that was considered impactful to other players and pulling mobs from it was considered fair game.

If they have more than 4, you can pick one off, unless it's a named mob. At least I seem to remember some guide saying that. /shrug

[Dman2701]

That's my understanding you can pick mobs off a kite, just be aware though if you decide to do this and the swarmer dies, Unless you leashed the mobs they will all come back at you

[AbstractVision]

Likewise if you pull something and mess up and die, say to adds, its good to let that bard know he has trouble inc.

Flip side of the coin—bard notices you took one of their mobs and doubles back around to offer more.

In this case only the cockatrices aggro'd immediately.

yeah - unless you are feeling especially generous, then you can chug a cazic gate potion

Good luck finding the bard if you're not a tracker! Dude's gonna be in some random corner of the zone and just move to another one when you find him and mobs wont respawn for like 30 mins as he avoids the snipers lol

We're screwed.
