[Guide] Talent builds for botting/leveling

[thebradz]

The following builds have been made with mostly botting in mind, they do not require respecs at level 40 because your client is probably minimised while you’re watching a movie and you don’t want to fly to a trainer and respec, you want to leave it to do its own thing, right?

They can, however, still be used for leveling, but there is most likely more effective builds to do so than the ones listed in this guide.

These were put together by myself using my experience in botting and talents that work well. I am very open to constructive criticism and suggestions, please leave a post and I will take them onboard.

I am also looking for recommended race suggestions for Hunters. This is because I’ve never played a Hunter to 70. Again, if you have any constructive criticism’s on this aspect of the guide, please let me know!

Other than that, please enjoy and let me know what you think!

Cheers.

Dwarves can be good in pvp -> Stoneform, aswell as tauren -> 5% more stam + warstomp

Oversight on my behalf, cheers for that!

Tauren's are indeed very crucial with their stam bonus, and war stomp has saved my ass so many times in BGs, specially when in WSG for FC!

Great guide tho! =]
