in season one I hated it.
season one was awful.
but now we don’t kite like that anymore. maybe in like, 27 keys, but I’m not good enough to do 27 keys.
Aside from affixes necessitating kiting, there are specific mobs you have to kite (dogs in halls, for example), and maybe if you run out of defensives, but nothing like it was in S1.
as far as affixes necessitating kiting - yes. I’m fine with that to a degree. necrotic for example? that affix is just fine now. the changes they made recently made it extremely easy to drop stacks. it’s no big deal. having to kite a bit on raging weeks as well… not a big deal.
the part about kiting that annoys me isn’t that I have to do it to save my life, it’s that in doing it, I pull the mobs out of all the damage effects. big ones like mage orb I can kite around and try to keep them in, but little ones like earthquake are a nope. just gotta leave them.
