Morons like this are why bards got nerfed. Guess they wont be satisfied until bards are nerfed into the ground, even more.

Whenever this happens I just start taking mobs from the bard. If he has more than 4 mobs I believe you are allowed to do so. Either way, it's a zone disruption on the part of the bard if they are monopolizing a whole area/section of a zone like OP describes. My advice is either petition them or just start rooting/killing their mobs. Bonus points if you get them killed.

That's exactly my thought on it too. I do the same, I pull from bard swarms when they start swarm kiting. Even had them get mad about it. Oh well.

Yeah I remember some time ago I was trying to quad wyverns on a Druid and some douchebard was swarm kiting like 10 wyverns and taking forever to kill them. I just started rooting them with a low level root spell. Root would break and then they wouldn't be bunched up with the others. Greedy douchebard tries to group them up again instead of zoning and then gets himself destroyed. His rage was glorious.

This is against server rules FYI. You are allowed to pull mobs off a bard that has more than four mobs. But if you intentionally do anything to disrupt hisbkite or get him killed, I.e rooting a mob with the intent of root breaking and it throwing off his swarm, you risk a ban.

1) be a class that can feign.
2) cheerfully pull a mob from the bard's pack of 5 or greater that is known to have social casting friends in the zone.
3) run the mob over an impressive group of friends with casters.
4) feign and survive the experience of aggro being dropped. this takes skill and timing.
5) log onto your Cleric account that's parked in the zone and graciously accept a full fee for a rez from the dead bard.

Repeat steps as necessary or simply move from the zone. Previous to greens having their resists looked over, bards could get dispelled or rooted with the best of them. No idea what state that's in now, as I don't screw around in leveling zones that low that a bard might want.
