 I was hoping charm would work here but apparantly it has a bug with duping or something. That is a pity! I used to love grabbing a ton of things and using charm to have them all beat each other up:).... Anyone else miss that? It could be challenging especially if your swarm contained a lot of mobs that hit hard Smiley.

broke on purpose to prevent duping and exploiting. You can run in to CoM and get charmed as well as on Ldon 3 or 4 not any where near as fun as doing the charming though. Was alot of fun in pvp as well.

i miss the faction assist bug in western wastes that made bards able to solo any dragon in the zone as long as you had great dragon faction.

Helped so many people by just giving out all the red dragon loot.  And the faction hits were nothing a night in Kael couldn't fix.

I just had a bard as an alt on live, didn't have the full experience many people claim that the bard gave. However I had a lot of irreplaceable fun with him, even though I did only get him to the low 60's. Never swarm kited or anything mindblowing, its just the style and feel of bards that are awesome & unique.

I used to play a bard... was the wiper of most raids... you steal our PoP mob then i'd simply log her in and *encourage* a wipe... was generally fun to do... dawn and twilight are your friends... great to see avatar summon all the clerics and wipe the riad muhuhahah

I certainly miss it..I'd pull 20-30 mobs and spend the next 10 minutes running around and playing chicken with the mob trying to get as close as I could get for my spells to hit but not get hit myself..Good times

I remember on live I never had the balls to swarm kite but I used to love charm kiting. Everyone would always ask me how I leveled so fast lol. Also was very entertaining.

First time I ever swarm kited was in Dulak shortly after LoY came out. God was it fun lol, I had so many tells from people telling me "Hey can you stop it! You're lagging me out!" "Sorry bro, upgrade your computer :-/, I'm leveling" That zone was so awesome for swarm kiting it wasn't funny.

Back in Classic when I first got my Charm spell (27/28?) I would charm the cyclops in Rathe Mtns and use them to kill the Hill Giants.  Took 2-4 Cyclops per HG and it was slow, but it was definitely fun, challenging, and rewarding.
