I had to kite a mammoth to the bomb dispenser so I could blow it up for the quest
Ample Inspiration
. I could not find the mammoths before the timer ran out. I used the turn around jump shot method.

That quest is a bit stupid. I figured out that you wait for the Mammoth's to run past in a group of 3 or something like that. Although, I did have greater difficulty doing this quest.

You get your own bomb for this quest afaik. No need to kite anything anywhere, just blow it where it stands.
Tore's got an explosive dispenser north of town... not far from the big cavern entrance, can't miss it. I'm sure she intends them for mining purposes of some sort, but I've got a better idea.
Grab one of those things and rush it to one of the nearby mammoths... most of them are to the west. Collect the meat, bring it back.
Why people dont read quests?

more to the point of not reading the quest but who said kiting was dead?

Yeah. That's what I said. Since wrath came out how many Hunters have you seen kite something while leveling? Tenacity pets and thunderstomp changed the way we play. People should read posts carefully.

I brought the mammoth to me. No need to wait for anything to run past and no need to worry about a timer when you kite it to the bomb dispenser. The only thing I worried about was killing it before I got to the dispenser or my pet killing it before I grabbed and threw the bomb.

Don't be rude. You're post was unclear and he wasn't the only person who misunderstood it.
Pretty sure the other guy was rude first when he made this statement:
"Why people dont read quests?"

I always kite mobs when i am chilling with my pve pet. Too lazy to turn on growl. Provided that something lives long enough.
PS: How should i know what he meant by "timer run out"? I am pretty sure he could just go and take a new bomb (if not directly he could abandon and retake the quest). Also Beast tracking is there for a reason so "want able to find mammoth" argument is fail.

I had beast tracker on and the mammoths did not show up on radar because they were too far away. I did mount up but by the time I got to it the bomb exploded.
I figured since I had to run back to the bomb dispenser that I might as well bring the mammoth back with me. That's when I decided to kite it back. It was better than me running back to the bomb dispenser then running back to the mammoth and letting someone else kill it. This is just an alternate method of completing the quest.
I'll change the title of the post.

Its obvious you haven't done the quest, so her goes. When the timer runs out, if you still have the bomb, you blow up. Methinks that's bad, mmkay?
Lol @ too lazy to turn on growl.

Its obvious you remember every timer quest you ever did.
tbh i didint even notice any timer. Just pick the q, blow the mammoth, get back. Nothing fancy.
What op describes isnt kiting. Its just inability to do quests as they should be done.
This is kiting:
