Bard Swarming on Green
Hello,
I quit after the mob limit on blue server. Kind of hoping the mob limit will be gone when green starts - Not sure if it's classic or what, but anyone have an idea if it will be possible? Got a couple of buddies that are new to EQ (they are playing blue right now to get accustomed to the game before green launch) and want to speed us up a bit so they don't have to replay all the content as much. Before I get flamed, know zone disruptions and such were my top priority when swarming. Always was mindful of nearby groups, and never, ever trained anyone. I'd pull my swarm plenty far away from other people, and if they wanted to tag a mob off the swarm, that was no problem at all. Thanks for your responses. | ||

Max of 4 mobs at launch.

Even if the mob limit wasn’t in place, with how crowded I expect the zones will be it would be very difficult to kite large swarms on Green for at least the first few months without causing a zone disruption.

Nah, no swarming at all at launch.
Either level like a normal class or wait six months. | ||

Who else gets triggered when people call AOE kiting swarming?

Swarm Kiting is when you use charm on a mob and have the rest of the duders in your kite beat it to almost dead, then break it when low and kill it. IIRC.

All of those factors combine to make classic swarm kiting possible: the swarm will prefer to attack the closer charmed pet instead of the kiting bard. | ||||

I think in vanilla it only really worked on undead and giants(maybe cyclopes too?).
realistically on green you are highly unlikely to be able to do this effectively, and you'd be lucky to just find another target for a charm to fight in the first place. | ||
