Solo farm BoT [Hunter]

Be prepared for this to get hotfixed shortly. I was browsing mmo-champion and stumbled upon people talking about pulling single mobs in heroics with this trash technique.

Hunter Trap Pulling

Suck, I'm hoping they don't hotfix to quick.

[pexx]

Awesome find.. Anyone got any epixx yet?

[wkl]

1 epic - soul blade after 5th kill on main hunter
0 epics but looted 9xx gold on new hunter
oh and died so many times at first

[corrupter]

I really dont get time to dps them I seem to struggle alot, I use everything I can but never put out any damage run out of cd's and die, they just keep casting pulling is fine tho really easy I am in 325 gear tho best I have gotten is around 40% on a mob

[wkl]

firstly this guide is super
for corrupter, when I first started I had to take things much slower

heres a painfully slower but safer way of doing it, first you dont use serpent sting , and dont take the talent piercing shots
it involves silencing and freezing in place to allow pet healing and cds to come back

when in place, MD, heal pet, send immolate trap to pack, fd
mob comes over, 1 chimera shot + 1 or 2 other shots then use silencing shot (if resisted dont worry, might need to bandage up later)
dps a bit then (as close as possible to 80% health) use freezing trap (in between you can MD or heal pet -if u lost a lot of hp, bandage up)
wait for silencing shot to almost come back up then 'rapid fire - trinkets - aimed shot/chimera shot then silencing shot
dps as normal, when the guy casts, FD or Deterrence and wait for freezing trap to come back then freeze him
again, when silencing shot is back, dps again
when his health gets low, start using kill shot or even serpent sting, and use silencing shot or deterrence until it dies

its much slower but fairly safe and has got me 2 epics out of 130 ish kills
and I always have readiness-silencing/FD/deterrence for the ohcrap button

as for resetting the pack, send pet at full health to the patrolling mobs then FD
if it fails try again but always have readiness available just incase the yellow beam comes out or the patrol wants a word

Tried it today and it works exactly as described. If you find this hard it's probably because you're not used to playing the hunter class, go train!.

Thanks for the guide and +rep when i can.

Thanks for the support guys!

And if your really having trouble with dying, use glyph of MD, a beetle or turtle, and make sure cower is on autocast, growl is on autocast, and that you have a good pet tanking build.

Alternatively, you can respec yourself into spirit bond for loads of extra healing. <- Very viable option, ima edit and add this.

Haven't got any epics yet, gonna keep it up tonight though and see what happens.

I actually find that a gorilla is a solid tanking pet for this. It has an interrupt on a 30 second CD. So i hit the first twist phase with silencing shot, second one with my gorilla's pummel, then the third with my silencing shot again, and then it is usually dead before it tries to cast it a fourth time, if not I just deterrence it.

Ok, spend about 4 hours on Tuesday doing this before raid, worked out a great system. Got 1 epic (15k), 5 greens & ~2k in gold.

As the OP said, MM is the spec to go. I know you can pull 3 if you are lucky and want to play with the beam but I stuck with the 2 mob reset.

Used dps pet, but I do have two piece tier 5(helm, gloves) which increases healing to your pet by 15% of your damage, no worries about pet in the least. There was two systems I used depending on cooldowns available. Keep MD(with glyph up) at all times.

I would put my pet where shown in the OP and place a snake trap in front of him, found that it can cancel one of the the casts.

I would silencing shot the first cast.

Deterrence the second.

Silencing or readiness, silencing the third.

I Found that if you have no cd's available the best thing to do is mend pet and FD until you have one of the above cooldowns available.

I also just took a cast if no cd's were up instead of fd'ing most times as I found it hit's for 45k, which means I would have to be hit 3 times to kill me. I tended to take the first or second cast if I was going to eat a cast, as chimera would bring me back up. After I started doing the above I did not die for 3 hours of farming.

If you are an engineer i would suggest making the loot-a-rang to loot the mobs, that way you never have to worry about a beam hitting you.

Going to be trying the mobs in cho's room later on, hoping there is something there worth grinding.

[corrupter]

cant belive how mad this trick is, started trying it on gruuls lair etc able to pull mobs from bosses without the bosses even agroing

[Testament29]

[wkl]
