Can we talk about bards?

[Gloomlord]

You didn't answer my question.

The entrance is prone to getting swarmed from wonky pathing and frenzy trying to escape.

When that happens, I don't think I'm an arsehole for snare kiting the train to save my group.

Also, I've been in some AoE groups. What is acceptable and what isn't?

Genuinely asking as a bard who doesn't want to disrupt dungeons.

I think people are more upset about bards doing things that have high chance of getting uninvolved folks killed, and solo-monopolizing an area that commonly has groups; if you're in the entrance group you're not disrupting the entrance group. Take my opinion with a grain of salt though, I have a bard.

Well, thanks for the reassurance.

I always enjoy bards kiting in Velks as they are usually super friendly and happy to hand out invites. Gives a great opportunity to whip out Earthcaller or some Word of Whatevers.

Evasive warriors make decent pullers for these groups as they can tank many spiders at once while you establish kite.

The kite doesn't seem to go to the usual frenzied camp spot, not even when warping, unless other people try to interfere with it.

Meant to say Earthshaker obviously.

No one is going to fault you for using AOE spells to SAVE people from trains caused by wonky pathing. You know that as well as I do. It's obvious that what people, including myself, are tired of, is not the same as what you're talking about.

Paranoia on my part then, I guess.
