Default AE limit is four right?

There's a bard in north karana swarm kiting way more than four beetles. Lvl 14, some of them are scythe beetles which are significantly higher level than that. I thought this wasn't supposed to be doable?

AE limit for bards at launch on green is 4. It will become 25 later.

You can SWARM way more than 4, but IIUC, only 4 mobs will be hit at once. So he's just taking longer than it would normally take because he's spreading the dot X 4 across > 4 mobs.

You can kite as many as you can survive... dots will only hit 4.. so I don't see how that is too effective besides just tieing up mobs. The 4 it hits is random so the mobs can just regen back up before being hit again? Sounds like a slow painful way to level.

Can confirm, as a Bard, that DOT is only hitting 4 at a time.

On Rodcet it was accepted practice to peel excess mobs off kiters when mobs were in short supply.
