So. Gorilla or Boar
2010-03-17 00:00:00
I'd go for speed and boar.
That said, there are uses for pets w/ area attacks. An area-attacking pet allows you, when an add gets on you, to simply move up to the area of your pets AoE - and the add gets pulled easily onto the pet. It also makes it easier to fight 2+ mobs at once - you can actually multi-shoot (at least w/ screech) and often not pull agro off the extras. The drawback of an AoE pet skill is that it disrupts cc and pulls unwanted adds. So - best for soloing.
That said - well, I have an old hunter in the 20s w/ a boar and carion bird in his stable, about the same lvl. I've run some experiments. Both pets do great. Even in multi-target situations, the boar does fine. I just can't multishot and expect to not have the extra target(s) come at me. But that's ok if I have a freeze trap at my feet. Fights go about the same. I can also m...

Skinning/Leather vs. Engineering/Mining?
2010-03-15 00:00:00
Quote:I think that Skinning and Mining would be alot more helpful for a Hunter, because i know the trinkets for Hunters from engen are good but if you are skinning/ leatherworking you can make your own full set of gear. But that is only my opion. See ya
That post made almost no sense, L2Type. As for the OPs question, personally, I took I used to have LW/Skinning but seeing the nice stuff in Engineering I switched to Later, since I had never leveled Mining at all [8...

Tracking bug, don't tell Blizzard

Did you not read my original post? I HAVE NO UI MODS INSTALLED. No, I have not seen this. The only time I have seen anything remotely resembling this was when something was tagged a creature type I didn't think it should be, but that was working as intended.

Hunters and raiding
2010-03-11 00:00:00
Might have been a better idea to make 1 post to the WoW Main forum instead spamming all class forums with the same post.
But, I'll be nice and give you some hints:
1) Build a motivated team
2) Gear up
3) Build a balanced raid group
For Karazhan you'll need:
- 2 tanks (1 prot specced, 1 offensive / AOE tank)
- 3 healers (if you farm the instance, you can reduce to 2 healers, but for the start 3 are mandatory)
- 5 DDs
- time: raid Kara at least two days a week until you have managed to kill Arran/Prince
To make things easier bring >=1 priest (because of shakkle, fear, buff), >= 1 paladin(buffs ftw), >= 2 AOE classes (mage, warlock for some trash packs)...

The Hunt
2010-03-09 00:00:00
I realized I hadn't gone on and on about Humar for a while, and it occured to me that I could share with you a chapter of a story I've written on my own guild's forum. It is a bit taken out of context of the main story itself, but it is the version of me taming Humar. Chapter two of five, and I've not even finished chapter four and five yet. Anyhow, got bored, and decided I'd share it with you guys. This story takes place before the H...

BM Tree (Fun Thread)

There's a site that lets you build your own talent trees (just for kicks, mind you). I'm not talking about the wowhead talent builder, but where you can actually go in and design what you wish the talent trees would look ...

WoWwiki should also have the info (although you'd have to search a bit where it is)
And you can always say something like: "i wish strength would give me Ranged AP..."- God Emperor of Hunters and Priest Forum Mean Person.

Ranged Weapon?
2010-03-04 00:00:00
The reason a lot of Outlands Hunters use Xbows is becaue you get the Expidition Crossbow shortly after starting questing there, which is better than pretty much any ranged weapon you'll have at the time. I believe you also get one in Nagrand as a quest reward, one of the first epics you'll have if you start raiding will be the Steehawk Crossbow, and the PvP Xbow is also pretty common because it's pretty good.
So they're not better, they're just - Blood Elf Death Knight
Peloquin - Troll Hunter
Cenobite - Undead Warlock
Znakharka - Draenei Shaman
Rasen - Night Elf Druid
