The bigger question is why would a 60 sk even want to farm sebilis entrance mobs?
If you read the title of the video, it is an example of how to crawl down to disco, if you want to camp that. I am not only killing entrance mobs if you watch the video more.

There are also knights under level 60 with better gear than me. Knight gear is generally cheap DPK-wise, so raiders like to gear up Knights with cheap raid items they get over time.

The reason why you want to fear kite is because you take a lot less damage compared to face tanking mobs. You also stop caster mobs from casting, and Sebilis has a good mix of casters.

I am using Sebilis as an example because it shows that an SK can fear kite in tight spaces with dangerous mobs in close proximity.

Ideally you only face tank as a last resort, or if you can't fear kite for whatever reason. Taking more damage and spending more resources via face tanking means more downtime between kills. This can be problematic if you need to kill things before repops.
