The Headless Ring
2010-03-08
Speaking for myself, I went to do the horseman just to check it out
and maybe get a mount, and in the time I was there it dropped several times.
Short answer, hell just pick it up. It drops all the time, you're likely to
be in a PUG, and most people will probably be more interested in trying to ninj...

You might be a BM Hunter if...
... You have more food for your pet than food for you.
... You're pet has more armor than you and isn't wearing any.

Attack speed with Gladiator's X-bow.

skribs wrote:Before you say "too slow" remember that for shot rotations, slower is BETTER. Less clipping of auto-shots that way, and you dont lose damage by having time between SS and AS.It's too slow. Shot rotation is a complex subject, and too involved for this thread, but it's not at all accurate to say that "slower is BETTER" for shot rotations. A BM Hunter with a 15 quiver/pouch is well served by a ranged weapon with a speed in the area of 2.7 - 2.9. Any faster or slower and clipping or dead time starts to negatively ...

BM hunter arena pet

Windserpent Lightning Breath and scorpids Scorpid Poison (or whatever it's called) have been nerfed.
Ravagers are the highest dps pets there are atm, closely followed by (gore>claw by a small margin). The difference is nowhere near enough to make or break a fight, so stick with your cat if you like ...

Pass or Fail?

Why not just do your dailies so that you can afford a respec every so often, and have a good build for each instead of a crappy build that covers all areas? Doing the Netherwing dailies from honored and down, your BG daily, and the normal and heroic dailies, you will get around 140 gold, per day, which is enough to afford to respec for arena once your done your raids for the week, and back once they reset.Raid AND Arena?
I could think of a better spec for raid.... and I could think of a better one for Arena. But as far as both?
I'd pass on the...

arena build
2010-03-03
hmmm and no wyvern sting..All the pvp builds that i saw in this foroum dont have the wyvern sting..why? instant cast and 950 dmg...I believe is the only pure cc that hunters have..
1=intimidate is in next succesfull attack..that means you dont know when..
2=traps is when the opposite player fall in trap..that means maybe never..
3= scatter shot..only 4 sec and in less range than wyvern
4=silencing shot only 3 sec and it works only in spell class..not in warriors the most represented class in arena
So lets assume that we are 2 hunters with the previous build i wrote..and we fight with the most common team war/resto druid or war/pally.....

Pet holding Aggro
2010-02-25
I just solo the old tBC style of solo play I used to as SV.
Send in pet while you start nuking and don't even bother with trying to have the pet hold aggro.
No pet can hold aggro vs an Explosive shot crit, and there's very few mobs who will survive long enough to hit you anyway.
If they happen to make it to me, Immo trap > Disengage > Explosive.- God Emperor of Hunters and Priest Forum Mean Person.

Hunter FAQ and you
2010-02-24
The posts about the sticky will fall off of the first page (although on this forum it will likely take a month) so newer posters will not always have this information.
People like to post in forums, IN THIER OWN THREAD, makes them feel important or maybe that they will get quicker responses. I am not sure there is anything wrong with this, if you do not want to respond - don't.

I know I keep an eye on both threads.
If you can't find your answer ...
