Default What classes can kite?

I am looking for a list of classes that can kite for a duo grouping with a wizard. I do not need to know which is best, though recommendations and why are welcome.

??? The only class in that lot I have ever seen kite is a Shaman. Beastlords are not even in P1999. If you do not want to give a serious answer please do not reply.

Theoretically any class can as long as said mob is snared and/or you're sowed. With a wizard you'd probably want a good pet class or a druid.

Mage/Wizard: Wizard snares, or mage has earth pet. Both of you nuke, the mob ping pongs back and forth from the aggro.
Necro/Wizard: Necro fear kites, wizard and pet beat up mob.
Druid/Wizard: Snare, nuke mob, it runs back and forth between casters. Later on you can quad.
Enchanter/Wizard: Probably the preferred duo, because Enchanter has clarity. Charm pet + nukes are fun, later on you can get into AE groups.
Shaman works, Bard would work, could even see Cleric working if you stuck to Undead mobs. Plus you can port for rez's

Wizard/Rogue kite is great - snare the mob, stun and nuke a bit for agro, have rogue follow behind the mob - works very nicely

I duo'd 1-65 on live some time after Ykesha release with a friend using a pair of Frogloks; a wizard and a necromancer. We did mainly outdoor zones, but the xp came really quickly.

Anyway, kite? Fear kite best... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Terrorize/repulse animal + snare = druid. Ranger does this very well too... but not until Velious [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] ...a lot of things for ranger not until Velious [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Anyway imo fear kiting is easier on duo's, just someone with a snare and one with a fear, follow your mob around. Open spaces.

As a mage I used to duo kite with a wizzy friend all the time. It was a lot of fun and relatively safe.

Bard is pretty solid too. Can hold agro through wizard nukes and tasty tasty mana song. Double wizard maybe best?
