Bard question

[hopped]

So it seems that a Bard who want so swarm kite could do so with minimal gear. What is a decent startup (ie banded etc) and do stats even matter to kite like this?

The issue with using sells for speed is you keep getting faster and faster as you level, especially if you're using a drum. But when AEing you have better fine control of positioning when you are only just as fast as necessary... aka jboots.

To be honest after level thirty I almost always had a partner for low hp kiting. Just makes things so much easier and less intensive. Honestly so ridiculously broken. AoE kite up to fifty six or so then either buy or pull for Chardok groups.

HP gear if you can get it, though from what i've read 30+ getting caught by the mobs will kill you. Currently i'm lv21 kiting and have survived a few run ins a pull and lived, this will change later though. those 5ac/55hp rings probably saved my life on a few of those incidents.

Jboots would only mean you dont have to twist selo's, could do sow pots too if you really felt the need. But a bard using jboots or sow potions is like a magician or necro never using there pet, you "can" but why the hell would you?

two 5ac/55hp rings, if you got a jewel crafter friend you can get them cheap(er) but otherwise 250pp ea. well worth it
