Any suggestions for pre-18 levels that won't step on people's toes? I have a little bard I did kobolds in SF (at a very very late hour when noone was in the zone) with. Not a char I play often, but sometimes bard AE kiting is a welcome change of pace from grouping / charming / rotting with my other chars.
If you want to AE kite pre-18, with the caveat that pre-18 AE kiting is its own entirely different animal because the pre-18 PBAOE has a shorter range than the 18 one (so it's a lot harder) you can pretty much do it in any of the noob zones other than Innothule because there's always big open space in all of them. Misty Thicket would be good. Both Commons are good. Like I said, Nro and Oasis. If it were me, I would do FoB until like...10? I think you can actually do FoB into your teens but I don't really know. Or, if you don't want to go all the way out there, Steamfont until around 8-10 and move to EC, EC until around 12 and move to Nro, Nro until around 15 or 16 and move to Oasis, Oasis until around 18-20 and move to SK, SK until around 28-30 and move to LOIO for just a couple levels, then to OT, and from there your options are pretty much limited to OT-DL-BW with slight deviation.


There's overlap between zones, which is good. Too many people in SK, you move to LOIO for a while. Too many people in LOIO, try a little OT. You don't always have to pull 100 mobs. You can do pulls with 8 mobs and that's still twice as good as quadding. People think a zone is shut out to them because there's only 15 mobs up that con black to them so they have to move to the next zone where there's 100 yellows, then they get pissy because some other bard is taking those 100 yellows. You have to understand that every other bard on this server is now your brother, but they are also competition, your enemy, your anathema, and you're better off avoiding them by finding someplace where they aren't than crashing into them and arguing and training each other over that sweet, sweet OT cornucopia.
