courtesy google define tool:
kiting (mmorpg) - "popular method of killing mobs (monsters) by staying at a distance and using ranged attacks, and running whenever the enemy comes near."

Because of my lack of knowledge of how the combat system actually works, I am not sure if you can even do it.

so another question, is the combat system dynamic (attacks can be made while running) or static (attacks are made while standing still).
the answer to that question will probably give me the answer to the former.

It's static.
