Greedy bards

Mojorisin · #1 10-01-2010, 03:00 AM

So I'm sitting at KFC in front of the 2 rook spawn just up the ramp a ways. I have been camping this spot for a while, when a bard runs up, attacks the rook that spawned, and then pulls every single other mob in and around KFC. There were at least 4 other people camping the ground under KFC, but the bard ran circles in the area taking every single mob the second that it spawned. I complained in ooc that it was rude, and that he was forcing everyone to leave their camp so that they can xp, to which he replied, "lol, jealous?"
A few minutes later I was fighting an aviak that spawned, so what does he do? He runs his 15 mob pull over me, killing me, then continues to kite. He continues the process for a good half hour. (minus the training me part)
Really bards? Really? Pulling a massive amount of mobs is impressive, it really is, but is it possible for you to do it without ruining the fun of everyone else in the area in the process?

If I had a dime for every time I wanted to stab a bard in the face, I would have 30 cents.

This is when root and snare are fun.

Be assured that he will never successfully kill any of those mobs, so... theres that.

Ya he will. A bard can kite 15+ mobs with ease. By ease I mean a little practice.

When you see him next, root one or two of them, snare another 1 or 2, then it will screw him all up.

Just report the asshole. Maybe it's a "habit" of his.

if you got gate, pull something HUGE at him (have gate set outside zone). Run towards him with said huge mob(s) and gate your ass out

Having a bard who kites in SK let me tell you how to get revenge. Pull any large - giant sized mob or mobs and run them into the kite and it will completely mess him up because its impossible to kite large/giant sized mobs. I have had 20+ mobs kiting just to accidentally run into the cyclops which made me have to zone all that work. Very annoying.

1. Mez the cyclops
2. Equip drum
3. Run away
4. Resume kiting until the cyclops comes back, and repeat step 1.

Unless of course running into the cyclops got you stunned and hit for lots of damage, in which case I'd have zoned out just to be safe.
