Hunters Guide(for beginners or without much experience)

[jmng93]

Hello i have been a hunter for all my wow experience, y have been playing from burning crusade since now being a blood elf hunter and i want to share my experience with all those hunters out there trying to get better(im not saying that im good! y just want to help...)

Ok first of all you need to know why hunters are good for!, first of all is one of the classes that its easier to play or to level beacuz you got a pet! and hunter dps its great in dungons raids... but mustly hunters are very good for farming for lots of reasons like feign death while you are mining you dont get kill, send pet while gathering something, geting your pet with alot of mobs and you doing AOE!

But ok here goes my advices!
1.Order all you inventory!(having everything in order make things easier) and buy quiver or bag for Ammo cuz basics of hunter is having a fast quiver and always having ammo its also one of the disadvantages of a hunter
2.Macros!
i recomend this macros for leveling or for pvp or also some dungons!

#showtooltip Hunter's Mark
/castsequence [button:2] Hunter's Mark; reset=5 Serpent Sting, Hunter's Mark
/stopmacro [button:2]
/petattack
/petdefensive

this macro is for casting hunters mark sending pet and serpent sting! this is excelent por killing mobs!

#showtooltip
/castsequence [nopet]reset=5 Call Pet,Revive Pet;[pet,nomod,btn:1]reset=14 Mend Pet,null;
/cast [mod]Heart of the Phoenix;[target=pet,dead]Revive Pet;[pet,btn:3]Dismiss Pet;[pet,btn:2]Feed Pet
/use [pet,btn:2]Raw Spotted Yellowtail

use that, to call, revive or heal pet! or also hearth of the phenix pet talent skill.

3.Focus what you want to do?
.PVP?
A= Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft
.Raid?
A= Talent]Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft Calculator - World of Warcraft[/url]
i Hardly recomend this builds(note i did not make them but i use them and they really work!)

4.Addons
- FloAspectBar - Addons - Curse (this is really useful for aspects!)
- FloTotemBar - Addons - Curse
(this is really useful for traps!)

5.Advice
Hunters are one of the most balanced class beacuz you can kill almost any class of player oviusly depending on how good is your character your build and alot of things but if you play things well you will preaty much kill every one in pvp and be one of the tops dps in raids and dungons!

6.for leveling!
i recomend being Beast master beacuz you send your pet and then heal it and you can kill mobs untill you preaty much have no mana to heal your pet but beast mastery is really good for leveling!

7.Professions!
-Y personally recomend
.MINING&SKINING why? beacuz you will make so much money!
.Skining&Leatherworking why? beacuz you can make your own armor at low lvls! or high but you can make some moeny
.Mining&blacksmething why? you can craft wepons and armor at lvl 40 and above!

8 .Types of Pets!
- Petopia: A complete guide to hunter pets in the World of Warcraft.
best webpage for pets i cannot tell you more of pets than those guys!

9 .fighting advices!
-allways mark mobbs and send pet first with growl so he can get the threat and i recomen to sting mobs first and then just go for regular shot beacuz you dont want to finish your mana always try to have hawak aspect on while you are killing mobs!

10 .patience is the key! to victory
- i write this beacuz alot of hunters give up when they get told to reroll beacuz the class is over populated and its not that great for dungons there is only like 2 hunters in a 25 raid...

well thats all 10 advices i can give!
and remember to /hug pet and feed your pet well
and give your pet a nice name like "Sarion" lol
well i hope you guys like it and find this guide useful i made it myself to help all the people sorry for my awful ortograhpy but im mexican
and i want to contribute to this site and my really experience is hunters!
and i wanted to help sorry if this guide is really similar to others but i made it my way not trying to copy any one!
remember this game is for having fun and hunter is my favorite class thank you for reading if you find something better please let me know to imporve it! and geting this guide better

this guide sucks... first of all you don't get haste from quivers or ammo pouches anymore, when will people realize it...

the layout is horrible, macros before specs? the pvp spec is absolute shit and the raid spec only does best dps with best raidbuffs and minimum 500-600 arpen on gear, meaning better than average. at the start survival is much better.

the addons are totally senseless, since you can just place the buttons to your standard action bar... or use any bar addon to get more buttons.

you gave absolutely no advice on gameplay at all.
so... fail "guide" is fail.

No need to rage quite like you did.

Sure he didn't touch on gameplay and the layout is VERY hard to read, however the bar addons aren't as useless as you make them out to be, the aspect bar/(trap bar?? i think) are very useful, I say this because for me my bars always seemed to NEVER have any room and these addons really helped with that.

And to comment on the ammo bag; I still use an ammo puch/quiver sure it doesn't give you the bonus speed any more but I keep it around because it puts all my ammo in there automatically no searching threw my bags for it (yes im that lazy) and not to mention it's a 28 slot, fill that badboy up with epic arrows and im g2g for like a few months (lol)

Yes, this guide could be touched up a tad, but as the title says for begininning hunters (or something) the title doesn't say "ZOMGZ L2PLAY HUNTER HERE!!!" so if you were looking for a guide on actually HOW TO PLAY a hunter, I would suggest you look elsewhere.

It's an alright guide, but you really might want to clean it up!

(and if you really don't know how to spec for yourself, just go to google)

I play hunter 5 years and this guide is the worst ever.
It looks like copy paste from something bad.

1. Quivers don't have speed
2. Your macros suck
3. Your talents suck
4. Your addons suck
5. There is no balance in wow
6. Your profession tips suck

I am sorry if I was too harsh but that was e very very very very bad hunter guide.

[jmng93]

well sorry i was trying to help if you don't like it don't need to reed it but anyways ty for the advice and remember that i say for beginers! or without much experience! beacuz i knew im not that great writing!

[dayloon]

Thanks for trying to help out, the guide has potential but a lot of your advice simply doesn't make sense and is incorrect / out of date.

I did not rage nor flame him. I just said what I thought is true. It's just that he has no clue how to play a hunter and wants to make a guide, that just doesn't work.

[nikor0x]

Very good guide!

[krayz]

I don't even play a hunter and I could make a more constructive hunter guide than this.
