Nerf Bard AE Kiting

[Silikten]

PvP hinders all xp gains.

There's literally no reason to nerf bards in PvE. Sorry.

This is a horrible thread.

But keep on being angry

You mean a bard and wizard on a box that you've already mostly leveled thru on. Yes, such valid points you make, moran. Again, all PBAE spells need to be nerfed to hit a maximum of 4 targets. We wouldn't want enchanter/wizard/cleric AE groups on this new box. I think necromancer needs to be removed from the playable class list as well, because I don't want one of those fuckers to ding 9 while i'm still struggling through level 3. We must not allow these scum to abuse game mechanics like this!

Syft, honest question, how old were you in 1999?

Like 20 nobody on live was AE kiting find me one video or thread on it that isn't pop era.

Your arguments are honestly retarded no other class can get 5 lvl's in 45-1 hour in 50 range, your really lying through your teeth on this one and gonna hand Nihilum the new server just so you can abuse a mechanic that was never used in that era. In 1999a lot of player's were on dialup lol.

Bard swarm kiting is fine. Definitely nerf aggro kiting, that is very overpowered. As Bardalicious stated, on a highly populated server, you get shiiiit on swarm kiting. Not to mention the lvl 2 AE is so flippin short range, the bard is so close to the train that if you disrupt him in the smallest way he has a high chance to die. Now the xp is great if you can have a group protect the bard, but with the newfound xp bonus, I think most people will be able to focus on grouping and actually lvling rather than afking while a bard swarms. Before the xp was so bad it wasn't worth it to group in dungeons (non kiting). To fix this just keep focusing on dungeon bonuses, like Unrest's bonus, and you will surely counter the bard kiting IMO. Overall, bard is king of solo xp, can't handicap that bros. ALSO, fix charm kiting.

Yeah bro so many fraps videos floating around from 1999-01 right? l0l

The burden of proof is on the retard kicking and screaming to get something nerfed even though it's working the way it worked on live. And even still, this many posts in despite repeatedly being corrected, you're citing xp rates of kiting KUNARK zones.

Syft, from the way you type, the way you act in game and the childish pictures you post on these forums I'd say you're either of relatively low intelligence, of young age, or of a tragic combination of both.

No way Darksinga, all us bards are gonna ding level 60 by kiting in Eastern and Southern Karanas within 6 hours of the server being released duhhhh. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I'm pretty sure Syft or Tyva one F'ed me several times when I was low hp kiting in DL. Yeah its over powered but one root or snare and its game over instantly. Also, AoE kiting wasn't nerfed on live until shortly after LoY expansion, so if we follow the classic timetable I think we'll be ok, and on live it was also nerfed far beyond just 4 mobs.. Your AoE DoT song on live will not hit mobs if you are moving, effectively killing ALL AoE swarming.
