Doing so anywhere isn’t a special thing, and nobody with any real amount of gear ever does as it’s the most asinine boring thing you can do short of playing a shaman. Solitaire is more engaging than these shit ways to play eq.
Lack of excitement doesn’t justify killing stuff inefficiently.

Even with BiS fear kiting stuff is extremely fast, mana efficient, and results in less damage taken. I understand if you don’t have the right zone/mobs for that and have to stand toe-to-toe but both rangers and SK’s have garage HP recovery systems, ie no jasper powered heal toy.

Outside levels 1-45 with a Fungi or stunt videos at 60 there is a huge range of levels and xp where as annoying as it is, you are better attacking a slowly fleeing mob than taking hits. If you can avoid it that is.

As for who has a Tunare sword at level 46 and can’t fear kite? Who cares? The real play is a Dawncall spear and destroying Karnors. If you have a Tunare sword you probably have one of these too. Grats on having quite a fun alt.
