You can AE kite though, since you're 18+ and have your brass AE dot. There is a ton of info on the topic, just search for "swarm kiting" and remember that every instance of the term that doesn't involve charm was said in error. Even without using the proper terms, they give good advice on how to AE kite.
But there are lots of ways to solo as a bard, and I wouldn't limit myself to AE kiting unless I was in a hurry for some reason. 15+, you can mez. The melee method works, with lute hp regen + mez working to keep you from dying. I always thought this was fun. So try that!
But since I assume you're playing on blue, why not find a group? Even on Aussie time there's tons of people playing on that server, and it's best to level in groups so you get that practice in where it really counts. imo
Good luck! Please don't call kiting with your AE dots swarming; it's wrong.

I think we as a society should agree that the justification for calling charm kiting "swarm" kiting (the mobs "swarm" each other) is totally inferior to the justification for using it to describe a method in which you are in actuality kiting a swarm of 40-50 mobs.
Off-topic but come on, it's time someone says it, we need to take a vote on this.
