Why do I have so much trouble clearing the jungle?

what you deserve··1 votes·949 views

I watch other people play kindred and say she has one of the safest clears in the game because of her W's heal, but I always die to my second or third camp. Am I just shit at kiting or is there some kind of secret I don't know about?

what level are you, and do you have a full rune page yet?

with out a full rune page of the right runes jungling can be very hard to do well

I do, I'm running armor yellows, CDR blues, and flat AD reds. Quints I don't have 3x AS but I have one of those, one EXP rune, and one lifesteal.

edit: I managed to get krugs>red>raptors>wolves>blue and then died to gromp

You should get scuttle crab inbetween those camps. Or try for a gank which will allow your health to regen a bit. And try to smite red for the health.

I actually got Scuttle after wolves but if I had the bot one marked I'd go for it after raptors

don't know if that helps ... my jungle rotation normaly is krugs(smite) > raptors > red (Smite + HEALING) > wolves > blue (smite + mana) > gromp > skuttler

Why do you have one EXP rune. And if you're having trouble. Clear one side of the jungle recall and go to the next. Secondly, you didn't get scuttle. That's some nice gold + HP

EXP rune is because I use the same runepage for everyone in the jungle and it allows me to get a bit more out of invading while leaving less for my enemies.

Kite and wait for spell rotations Usually I kill small ones first when I take out the big guy

And yeah if your having trouble do scuttle between camps

First Clear all the small camps... Krugs (start the fight w/ smite) Raptors Wolves (Smite will be back up) Scuttle Crab Gromp

Second clear Krugs Red Crab Raptors Wolves Crab Blue Grom

I have trouble with her clear too. I would also suggest getting scuttle after second camp as you can regen a bit. Like me, you probably need to practice kiting the camps more.

Simple as just kiting. I'd also recommend starting talisman if you aren't good at spacing autos. I've never had trouble with her clear and just picked her up. I'm guessing you're 1) new to jungle 2) don't play ADC or 3) both.

spacing autos meaning knowing how to animation cancel for max output? I'm still having trouble with that

I'm not new to either jungle or adc, I just usually have a leash for jungle and neutral monsters do tons of damage.

Try Eve. If you can do it with her, Kindred will feel like using Nunu.

I can do it with Eve no problem..

You start with item 1039 on Kindred and your first skill should be W for the heal. That's the safest early clear at least.
