I agree with what is being said here. More staring at the floor during the long hours of LFG would bring back a more classic experience.

I've never had a bad experience with a bard and I also do not play a bard. It just seems to me that trying to nerf them because of advances in computers is just dumb. The fact is the mechanics were there in Classic, our PCs just couldn't handle it. It's the same as someone arguing that you shouldn't be using cable as that makes you play better. It seems to me if they are going to nerf bards for something they COULD do in classic, then they might as well limit all our bandwidths to 56k when we connect to the server, that sounds like a lot of fun.

Wasn't actually a nerf, was just an error in the patch which has been corrected and yet to be deployed. People just got all excited because of the bard jealousy.

I regularly pull the first two floors and entire yard of unrest, the entire crushbone zone, or the entire basement of kurn's tower to powerlevel new players on red and I have never once heard anybody whine about this strategy on the forums. I do this on a druid. Nerf /sit.

I will agree with this. Having a druid pull all of CB or unrest to powerlevel their friend then insulting you through tells cus you try to take one of his mobs when there are no other spawns up is way more annoying than Bard kiting. I don't think I am the one stealing mobs when you pulled from our groups camp.

Would really enjoy a fix to go in on this...anyone's experience is getting shit on by mobs outrunning sow+strafing.............

Probably would be nice to throw another double xp fest after a week of this shit. Charm killing is probably the dumbest i've ever seen it before atm.
