Maybe it works a bit differently here on P99, as I think mob pathing is different here than on live. But I never even had "spots" for fear kiting. Fear kiting was so ridiculously easy and OP, I literally just went. In whatever direction I saw mobs.
I remember fear kiting in OT from the outpost out into the middle of the zone until I ran into those two named scorpions.
In DL I fear kited all around Karnor, just out into the open. Same thing in Burning Woods and Skyfire. Same in Velious, Cobalt Scar, Wastes, etc.
I'm rambling, but the point I'm trying to make is that fear kiting is simple, powerful, an unless emu mob pathing screws things up, it basically makes zones your playground. If you're a 60 Necro under the impression that regular kiting is superior to fear kiting. Then. Wow.

I don't know about you. In 2002 I used to fear kite with my ranger in the wastelands. That's the zone across from Great Divide. I recall misjudging my cast time and getting adds as being problems. It was effective, but I had to watch my surroundings because it was rather easy to get an add if I wasn't looking. That's why I kited near the bridge after a while. That way if things got out of hand I could cross the bridge to zone out.
Hard to say really. Rangers aren't nearly as good tanks as SK's. So misjudging is an expensive mistake, especially if you're taking your chances on con. I recall doing rhinos and griffon-things.
