Outdoor zones don't really have camps. And your entitled to any amount of mobs you can reasonable handle, which in this case is all of them. So don't fault the bard for playing to the fullest.

I will say that low hp kiting certainly locks up mobs for a longer period of time, particularly in OT, since that's where the majority of power leveling goes on; however, the simple fact is they are entitled to as many mobs as they can handle, just the same as you. If you don't like it move on. In other zones like DL, BW, EJ, you never see bard complainers because its almost never PL, its people killing in a reasonable amount of time.

As a bard myself, I can tell you right now, if you played a bard, you would swarm to. Sitting in a group for 2-3 hours and getting maybe 1.5 blues, or a duo/trio for the same amount of time maybe 2.5? With a good partner in BW I can pull about 7-8 blues if not more in that same amount of time. In OT, you can ding twice from 1 pull if your doing it solo. No one's time is more valuable than anyone else's, so I don't get why people would complain about people maximizing their xp gains.

It is absolutely no different if you wanted to camp any camp, but it was already taken. You'd find somewhere else to go. But in this case, you complain. It makes no sense. Its a big pile of jealousy is what it is.

All that being said, when I was aoe'n in OT, I left mobs alone near groups I saw, and I never have a problem with someone snagging mobs out of my train. Never really got too many complaints, although I tended to do it in off hours more often than not.
