    Abusing you having range against a melee opponent, whether PVE or PVP.

    PVE it's strategy. PVP it is apparently unfair.

    I'd say kiting is fair for us birdies, though I don't do it myself. And yes, it is a strategy, I mean, if we didn't kite, we'd die in an instant fighting bears lol.
    Kiting is fine, just don't do it excessively.
    Just don't kite to run from a fight.

    I actually know a few birds that are practicing fighting bears without even moving, yet do it very successfully. So yes, kiting is a good tool against bears, but bears have tools against kiting too, so the problem is elsewhere.

    Bear: dead.

    That's one option.

    Some birds do Blinding first, if they get that in, Beckon or any other skill is more likely to miss. Birds just root twice or push back if ever we get to close. Bear = dead

    Not to mention if they're using a Recurve, blind proc.

    Kite on twinks and you will be unstoppable! I made a lvl 16, slapped on an xbow, and got a 7 k/d only doing 1v1! It's crazy good if you got the right build and know what u r doing...

    In lvl 55 a bear should learn his 12m and beckon asap. Then lay down a hellscream, throw in a slash to spice it up and stomp em! One hits unshielded mages and birds sometimes... If all else fails keep the stun going or get the heck out if there! Another strategy is for a bear to stay about 13m away from the bird til their combo is done, then the go in for the kill...

    Yes, kiting is a excellent strategy for birds. Also to all those people who get upset about birds kiting I always say "are we suppose to just stand there and let you hit us?" that always shuts them up

    There is a big difference from kiting to running, kiting is a skill used for survival, running is agitating.. An example I was in a 1v1 with a mage, her drain missed so she laced her nikes and began to run across the map.. the funny aspect of this is..when a player runs the chaser is regenerating skills.. so when the runner is caught they get hit with a full deck of skills..end result death.. MAJOR DIFFERENCES IN KITING AND RUNNING..

    (my all time favorite is the hoodini effect get to the runner and they poof from the game only to re enter and rush because they where loosing..)

    It's not that hard personally when i'm getting kited. I am a level 26 dual spec bear so sometimes i use my demon claw and str shield, and sometimes i use melee weapon for more damage. At the start of the battle i just freeze them with hell scream and use some debuffs, then beckon stomp combo knocks them way far. Then i switch to my talon set real fast and takes them down

    Lady, i never said kiting=running ,
    I just know some ppl that kite and when their health runs low, roots and kites till theyre out if range to heal themselves.
    Then they come back and ninja the other poor guy.
