1) Should "tab " key target the mob in front of you?
I am continually getting self and having to clear it all the time and mostly not getting mob in front of me.
2) What weapon do bards kite with? I thought my char had a bow and arrows and used that for kiting giants at one stage, but on return I had a throwing knife(which doesn't fire). Did they take bows away from half-elf bards?
3) What is it will all mobs running away the moment you finally get a hit on them?
4) Was mob agro nerfed? I'm getting about 5% of mobs that actually agro on me. The rest just ignore me.

F8 to target mobs.

Probably you should ask on the SOE Everquest forums. More people there.

There are various keys for targetting nearest mob, cycling through all nearby mobs, toggling between the last two mobs you've selected, toggling between yourself and one other target, select nearest PC, etc. I've used the Options/Keys window to change which keys I use for most of these, so I'm not sure what the default keys are any more.
I'd suggest looking at the Options/Keys window and finding the section dealing with targetting, and see what the choices are. Try out the keys shown for those choices, decide which selection commands you like, and then maybe change what keys invoke those commands.

Sorry, I'm not familiar with bard weapon choices.

Sounds like maybe you were (a) fighting mobs that run at low health and (b) you were hitting them for enough damage to take them to low health but not actually kill them.

Are the mobs gray? Many (though not all) mobs won't aggro if gray. And of course not all mobs are KoS to begin with. Since you didn't say what level you were or what mobs you're talking about, it's hard to be more specific.
