Can Bards still AOE kite?

The simple answer is no.

SoE nerfed actual area kiting a while back. Bard area effect songs will no longer harm a mob if you are moving.

An alternative to this is charm or swarm kiting.

What is the highest DPS class in the live server when you start raiding?
by /u/marke34 on December 7, 2019 at 3:28 am
Hi guys! Newbie here. Just downloaded the game, so I didn't even start playing the game yet. As a modern MMO player, this is probably the LAST GAME I should ever try, everquest sounds like it is not casual friendly, and it most likely never will be, being extremely reliant on groups when levelling, it's brutal as well. It most likely still caters to a group of players who have been playing for a long time, carving its niche, and trying to modernize it too much like WoW would most likely make the game lose a lot of its charm, and a major part of the reason why people still play this game in 2019, and not at the very least move over to its sequel, which I am also playing, everquest 2. Honestly though, while everything is archaic, and I am more of a modern MMO junkie, it should be fun looking back, and seeing the MMO template that WoW, and all the future MMO's was built on, and seeing what they changed over the years, plus the designers apparently did modernize a lot of the UI, so it's easier for peeps like me to get into the game. Still, I will take certain steps to make it easier on me, like rolling on a PVE server instead of a PVP one. Also, as brutal, unforgiving, and group reliant as this MMO is to a modern MMO scrub like me, it should still be fun to play, tons of interaction, content(it has TWENTY FIVE EXPANSIONS with a twenty sixth one coming in a couple weeks), and fond memories at the very least, classic WoW is popular BECAUSE it focused on grouping up, sharing fond memories, a strong community, and emphasized strong community interaction, and cooperation with its playerbase. Because of that, I decided to take a spin into the wonderful world of norrath, before I do so though, is there any popular opinion on what the highest DPS class when it comes to endgame raiding on live EQ servers on the latest expansion(which is the burning lands) is? I am not going to preorder the new one, since i literally just started playing, but after all this time, I'm sure you guys know what the top dog is. I honestly don't care about how bad it will be when levelling at all, you will want to group no matter what, unless it is a pet class it seems like, and it will be difficult no matter what, and I am willing to be patient, and take time to reach level cap on it, and set it up for raiding, I know it's insane that I am already focusing on endgame, and raiding when I didn't do anything yet. While play what is fun to you is a good thing to keep in mind, I literally did not touch the game before, so I know literally nothing about what I will like, and topping DPS charts with ease, and feeling wanted IS fun to me, so at the very least it will be a good guideline on a good class to start playing with, and levelling. I know that there are not exactly any good DPS charts/parsers anywhere, so it's a bit hard to figure out, but any help is appreciated. Sorry for the tough, and stupid question, and feel free to downvote me if you don't like the question, not many do, I don't care, XD. submitted by /u/marke34 [link] [comments

by /u/GB570 on December 6, 2019 at 5:42 am
Just getting back into the game after a long time and I see there is a new expansion coming out...I haven't yet paid for a subscription and was wondering if I bought the new expansion would I get the month too or do I have to pay that separate? submitted by /u/GB570 [link] [comments
Ranger SK or Warrior 4-box Mangler
by /u/OverlordGenord on December 6, 2019 at 1:19 am
Hey everyone, Playing on Mangler currently and running Enchanter Cleric Bard and Ranger. The idea being that the enchanter pet would tank and the ranger would be the back up when charm breaks. I have two young kids so my goal is to be able log on and tackle group content after my kids go to bed without having to wait for other to group. I really like grouping with others so when that’s possible I bring the class that fits in the group. I’m worried I am going to want a real tank rather then a ranger at some point so before I go to deep into expansions I want to make the real tank if it’s needed. What do you guys think? Ranger SK or Warrior for the 4th? submitted by /u/OverlordGenord [link] [comments
