Great post Lanvaren.

Going to add this well written bug report by Jete in regard to bard charming:

http://www.project1999.org/forums/sh...ad.php?t=11990

Please contribute anything you can, maybe we can get our swarm kiting back on this server!

Don't need to reroll, bards are still a work in progress IMO, who knows it could be back.

while it would be super cool to be able to swarm kite, Bards are still a very fun and flexible class to play, and can adapt to many different play styles. You shouldn't reroll.

Also, something I've noticed: it's possible to charm kite two mobs (assuming you're able to run fast, either with SoW or selo's playing) by doing the following:

1-get two mobs
2-charm one of them and have it attack/taunt the other
3-once charm breaks, charm the mob that was being attacked (not the one that was just charmed) and have it attack the mob you charmed first
4-if you let your new charmed pet beat on the other guy for a few seconds, it doesn't take long at all for it to regain aggro, so at this point: repeat step two once charm breaks again

This might be easier to do with SoW if charm doesn't last as long if you don't have it playing (I know that charm will recast if you don't start playing another song, but I'm not sure if playing a song (such as selo's) actually reduces the length of the unbroken charm) - otherwise just cast selo's and outrun the aggressive mob after charm breaks.

If anyone knows more about this method go ahead and post. I find it weird because it's so easy to lose aggro on the mob you charmed first, when I thought charm generated insane amounts of aggro. Anyways, whatever.

Without swarm kiting, we're just mana-regen bots ;(
