The world dragon in Duskwood (Ysondre, or whoever happens to be in) has made visits to Stormwind. The key on long kites is to have some form of movement enhancement (+speed to boots via enchant) or way to slow the mob (I use CoE on my lock).

That's because I used to have improved arcane missiles. I used to spam it and I didn't care if I was up close since I wouldn't get any interruptions casting it. But when I respecced to frost around level 45, that's when I had to learn to kite and learn it well. Being frost was perfect for kiting because of the slowing effects and the nice procs of frostbite. Nice crits too from shatter. It's a skill all mages have to learn by heart because it's at the heart and soul of how mages really fight especially when solo. Of course other classes like hunters make excellent kiters. Kiting is as the name suggests making your enemy look like you're flying him like a kite. You do that by constantly keeping your distance as it follows you around while you're hitting it. So basically you're hitting it, maybe applying some DoT's if you have any and then back away or run away then hit it again. So on and so forth until it's dead. Of course there's fear kiting which lock and priests do. That's when they DoT up the enemy and cast fear so that they're running around like mad while the DoT's eat them up. Cheers.

Say you're on your own and you want to kill an elite. You then kite it around by using some kind of slowing, running to safe distance, shooting on the mob, slowing it again, running again and so on.
