Bought Kha'Zix to pick up jungling again and I was wondering if theres an easy way to kite jungle camps. Like I know I should walk away after the damage shows up but like how far, when do i walk back, and that kind of stuff. Thanks!

It's a lot harder to kite as a melee jungler than as a ranged jungler, but Kha has some space on his primary jungling ability (his Q), so.

First things first, you start walking away from the camp as its attack animation starts. It will still hit you, but after that it has to walk back up to you to attack you again, which gives you time to blow your abilities before trading autos again (and from lv 2 on, using spike racks to heal).

Rinse repeat until clear (this works well for blue, red, and gromp. not so well for chickens and wolves).

So when you clear the most efficient combo is: auto W auto Q auto Q (and repeat) as this gives you a lot of auto attack resets and the cooldown on your W is 9 seconds, and your Q is 4 seconds (so imagine 9 seconds between the repeating W's). The best time to kite a camp is when you are auto Q'ing as you take less damage while you wait for your W to come back up to heal you.

TL; DR You kite when your W is on cooldown
