Kite(ing)?

Is kite(ing) knockback skills? I am new to MMO games and I am unfamiliar with this term.

    Kiting refers to running away from an enemy (akin to flying a kite) while attacking. Basically if you can outrun a melee attacker, you take no damage. Stuns, snares, and other control abilities aid in kiting by slowing down your opponent and allowing you to keep your distance.

    This is difficult in this game as you tend to back into respawned enemies. So You have to circle more. But this makes sense. The NPC's also seem very fast and more capable to attacking while running than in Skyrim.

    Another form of kiting could be backpeddling. Basically you're constantly walking backwards facing your enemy hitting them when they get close enough but keeping out of their reach.
