Swarming never referred to ae kites. Swarming was gathering a bunch of mobs, charming one, then using social aggro to reduce your charmed mob to like 10% hp in 5 seconds (then quickly invising to remove charm and kill mob). Like a swarm of bees.

The AE snare use in AE kiting is really only for indoors say Velks, as it lowers your max possible damage output since you now have to commit one of your twist songs to snare instead of damage, slowing your overall kite down.

Safety is still the name of the game though and honestly the snare method is still kind of dangerous at 54. I'd wait until 58 cause one resist that you don't notice = you dead.
