i said this elsewhere, but kiting in a limited amount is interesting, but the mechanics should make it an actual skill based situation, your max running space, and your enemies skills should make it an actual fight, not an auto win once you understand the basics of kiting.
otherwise they need to give melee a similar skill based tactic that allows them to beat almost anything regardless how powerful it is.

though with monster specific kiting limits, and more mixed mob groups, you could still get some kiting in game without making it the super answer

I don't think kiting should be the solution to everything, but it should take skill and it should be used in at least a few fights. Fights where if the mob catches your kiter you get blown up and everything falls apart.

Kiting gives weak teams a win they never deserved.
If by that you mean interesting, sure.

Kiting is NOTHING but overprivilege and exploitation of the ranged classes. A common problem it seems.

Sounds like chronically spoiled ranged classes just want to be worth more than the close fighters like they used to be in xi.

No lol...Stand there and fight like men of the server.

You're not going to stop anything. What tanaka did was stop chickenwussing a win cold. That should stay in the game.

Too bad it's not!

With the way you want MMOs to be there might as well be zero crowd control. Either way, we're clearly not on the same page here.
