I guess I need to understand how to move first.....
I tried practicing with a ground of 3 greens, just in case i got annoyed I could turn around and kill.
First method I tried was autocircle with the mouse turn method. This was so damn annoying to keep turning with my mouse... i felt that i did not really have a free hand to push my macro button.
Then I tried the tapping method.
When talking with a bard that did this he kept telling me to push it fast... all that did was make my turns big and jerky. I litterally clicked the arrow button as fast as I could, which made no sense to me.
So I swtich to longer depression taps but quickly. Now that got me going in a circle, but im not sure if the lvl 2 dot just has such a short range it never landed or what. I had to stop mutiple times. just to have the dot land.... I did with with the lute in my hand so that the dot would hit harder. and selos still kept me ahead of them without a problem, no need to switch to drums.
I liked this method because i had a hand free to turn away if need be ,or avoid the tree or whatever while still having a hand free to push the macro button for dot/selos.
If the mobs had not been green then i would have died fairly easy due to the fact that they still hit AT me quite a bit.
I use first person zoomed out as well.
I guess its all in the technic of "tapping"??
I have heard the strafe method is the best due to the "push" effect or something. I woudl love to learn this, but I am still pretty confused on it....
Thanks for all the advice!
