Bards swarming in dreadlands

The trick is to log on your burner monk, get lev/sow, aggro like 10+ mobs, get elevation so they don't see you and flop your pile on them so they get stunned and die. Repeat as necessary.

not QFT but I just thought it should be restated.

Also, on live bards were not pulling all of dreadlands in era and swarm kiting. This was like an elite pro tip that might have existed on some servers, but when kunark mattered, there was a thousand groups in OT, DL, FM, LOIO and I never saw a single bard swarming and I did the whole kunark leveling path.

But I know there is some era evidence of this behavior and stuff thats fine I'm just saying, dreadlands around KC wasn't typically pulled by bards. There were like 6 groups fighting all that KC yard trash slow motion exp grinding.

Yeah it would’ve been hard to do that with the technology we had back then. The lag probably would’ve been too risky since one misstep and you can die (same reason enchanter charm killing wasn’t a thing as much)

I dunno. I think its just a way of playing that people kinda kept to themselves. Like AOE groups. Thats a legitimate and excellent way to take advantage of the PBOE spells in the game but that technique is EMU meta. Again, its possible some awesome squad was doing in in 2000 but it wasn't something you'd find on everlore front page.

Have you ever played eq PvP, bards are one of the best PvP griefing classes.

Just root them during kite tho. They will be busy on CR

That is under lvl 50 tho. B4 kunark and velious gear make the game gay.

The best they can do is train mobs and gate pot.
