I find it kinda funny that the devs of Anarchy Online didn't think about kiting as a strategy in 2025.

Even if they made collisions/blocking not possible, you could still lure hostile mobs on another player as has been tradition in many games that have no PvP at all since the days of MUDs and MUSHes.
