my bard just entered the point where colibri are exp mobs and i have an additional question about bard pulling. i often hear about ridicously high experience chains that groups get when using a bard puller. what are the mechanics of this? do most bards keep just one or two mobs slept at the camp, but still keep pulling as normal while keeping an eye on the one or two at the campsite?
i am 55 now and don't have a lot of experience pulling. i've only been asked to pull twice. one was way back in garliage citadel and the other was recently in the boyada tree fighting crabs. both of these were easy enough, but i was not employing sleep or anything in my pulling tactics. we typically got chain 4 with the occasional chain 5, but i hear about chain 150+ in merit parties and have no idea how this is achieved.

It pretty much involves having at least two mobs at your party camp at once - one that the group is actively fighting, and one on hold (usually asleep) so that the party can start right away. Repeat this fast enough and you get theoretically infinite chains.

Problems you can run into include people going afk, other parties moving in on your camp, and links.. this is a HUGE problem with Colibri too since you are risking your entire party if you dare to use Horde Lullaby.

Personally my highest chain is 186, though I'll frequently get 100 and the party will want to stop for a rest. Not a big deal, the EXP isn't going anywhere.

Edit: Had a party the other day at the colibri camp in Thickets.. Chain 340!
