a Spiroc Lightfoot  

Just want to clarify a couple of things here, since i wished someone would have done this for me.

First I strongly suggest the sow potion, it is a great idea, this will run you roughly 60-120pp depending on server, but will eliminate the need to twist songs and will alow you to concentrate on your circles more, (this will be a highly needed skill as you get higher if you want to continue to solo kite)

Second this is going to be a guide / list of what i did, and what i have shown several bards on the stromm server and all have enjoyed this.

So to start this you need sow, regardless of how you get it, always refresh just before you pull so you are certain it will not wear out before the kite is done.

****WARNING spiroc Proven backstab for 220-380hps

OK to start this one i did this....

First equip your flute and sing invis, then run up to the top of the aviary. Now at the top stand on the ramp and face the building entrance. Now fire up Levitate, as soon as the spiroc charges you from inside the building, turn and run all the way around the building at the top to arg the ones on the platforms and in the building, once you make it back to your ramp that you came up, head back down this will pull all of the chickens in the aviary. When you hit land run around the aviary till you see the sea, now out in the ocean there is a bird house up on a pillar, run towards it (lev is still going) and when you get close target the single chicken in the coop and hit him once with chant of flame, then switch back to lev and head back to dry land. now run toward the mountain and head halfway up it, from there run like you were headed to the raft, as you pass the birdcage on a post stop and chant it too, now fire up heal song ( stops hurting the chicken so they all drop at same time and heals what little damage you have taken) and head to level part on beach near aviary where you can run in circles. Now you have all of the spirocs that you want in your train, find a semi level area and hit numlock and F9 four times quickly, this will keep you runnin and switch to an above / behind view, (so you can see the circles you run in.)Now fire up Denon's Disruptive Discord (with brass equiped) and run in circles. When only the last spiroc is standing he will try to run, chain him and dot to death. Wait for repop and rinse and repeat. The Spirocs will take you up to level 47 or 52 before tooo many of them start turning Light Blue, then it is time to go to Raptors which will get you to 60 with patience.

Now for some helpfull hints i have picked up and will share with you.

1. create a macro as follows
Line 1= /stopsong
Line 2= /pause 25, /cast 1 (one being heal )
Line 3= /stopsong
Line 4= /pause 25, /cast 2 (two being DDD)
2. place this macro on hotkey
3. now if you ever get hit, just hit this key several times and you no longer have to twist, the macro does it for ya, and you are back to full health.

Next For those of you just learning to AE kite, or that have never tried cougars i STRONGLY reccomend only pullin 2-4 spirocs your first couple times till you get the handle on things.

I hope this helps fellow bards, if you ever need assistance my game name is TAIISIEN on the Stromm server, just send a tell.

Lightfoots are a Warrior class (they bash), and have just under 2k hp (measured one at 1940). All spirocs run reasonably slowly, average to below-average magic resistance, and very small "social" or "assist" ranges.

Lightfoots can drop up to 5pp 12gp 12sp 12cp, drop Spiroc Bone dust (very roughly 1 in 4 times) which is used for high level rogue poison, and appropriate level research items.

Only Proven backstab

These little birds can backstab.

Then again, I use this against their brethren. I charm one of them, force them to attack another then fear the second one. My new "pet" makes quick work of his prey.

I found spiroc bone dust on these guys quite alot. The provens and warriors hardly have any of the dust but these lightfoots carry them at about an uncommon rate.
