Bard Kiting - 101

[rooro]

i use to do this same thing in anarchy online with a nano-tech.[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Also i wanted to add that there is a mouse look toggle for p99. You dont have to always hold down the right mouse button. sorry if this has been suggested already.

Luckily im over 54 and have snare. I only use the bard to PL at the moment. I turn off selos and strafe until they get snared.

I do need to invest in j boots regardless

was in loio last night, using this path. http://i.imgur.com/ixxvjVx.png
I died 3 times because I was stunned by a green tiger chasing me and train caught me. they run faster than skellies and goblins and I didn't think that a green could still stun me, well...
is there a place empty from them to circle ? how generally you deal with those ?
thanks

I actually go a bit southeast of where they recommend killing. More specifically, against the wall east of the goblin ruins is largely mob free. Also, despite what some guides say I have found that tigers do have a different run speed so I leave them out of the swarm.

there should be no tigers near the circle/kill spot in that map, so if you pick any up its because you ran too close to them. The suggested kill spot might not work too well now that the mob speed has increased. the circles you need to do are much bigger and if i remember correctly when i made that map the spot that i was killing in/referencing was just the right size. now, its probably too small.

wolves/cats generally have faster run speed than other npcs. don't kite them.

[Sivaeb]

Any mob over level 5 (o Rd somewhere near it) can bash/stun.

Tigers have always been faster. I think rhinos may even be faster than them.

Charm whatever is with the swarm and keep making it attack the group

I like that idea - could also be used with casting mobs use the swarm to burn them down to zero and carry on.

what do you use to pull non-social mobs, in OT with the cactus I tried shurikens but the short range makes it tough not to get hit, I tried belo but it's hard to time it, any alternative ?

I prefer chant of frost and FV instead of OT by far. More mobs, smaller space, all social agro, no tigers or rhinos, minimum frogs to avoid.
