World of Warcraft Hunter Guide

By Sam Sutherland

Even though hunters are incapable of tanking or healing, the class is still not an easy class to play. To achieve this, one needs a a World of Warcraft hunter guide. Hunters are a ranged dps class which usually does physical damage. But what makes this class unique from all other ranged dps classes is that they don’t do magic damage. A hunter’s pet is a very important element of this class.

A World of Warcraft hunter guide gives you an adequate amount of insight in your class as well as knowledge to help you succeed being a hunter. But knowledge is not enough if you will not apply it correctly.

Beast Mastery, Marksmanship and Survival are the 3 talent trees of the hunter class which all demand different play styles, different gears and a specific pet.

Marksmanship and Survival talent trees are the only ones viable in PvE since these provide a much higher dps than the Beast Mastery class.

A Marksmanship hunter is mostly doing physical damage. The best PvE Marksmanship hunter spec is 7/57/7. This talent build enables you to get maximum dps by following a simple rotation which goes as follows: Serpent sting – Chimera Shot – Aimed Shot – Arcane Shot –Steady Shot – Steady shot-Steady Shot – Aimed Shot –Chimera Shot….

The best WoW guide will also tell you that if you deem it necessary, you can replace Arcane Shot with another Steady shot. You should also use Glyph of Serpent sting, Glyph of Steady shot and Glyph of Kill shot. Marksmanship hunters gear and stats should be centered on the following three main stats: Attack power, Crit and Armor penetration. If you have a good World of Warcraft hunter guide at hand, it will tell you that armor penetration is one of the most crucial stats for this spec and will provide the hunter with high increase of the damage. You should only pick up a Marksmanship hunter when you reach an appropriate level because this build is very gear dependent.

A Survival hunter is an easier class to play and less gear dependent than a Marksmanship hunter. The Survival hunter’s damage comes mostly from Explosive shot which makes fire damage instead of physical damage. The Armor penetration will effect a small portion of your damage than it does for a Marksmanship hunter. For this spec, the main stats are attack power, crit and haste rating. The most common Survival Hunter spec is 0/18/53. For a good attack rotation, make use of your explosive shot, black arrow and aimed shot on every cool down and shoot steady shots in between. A wolf is the best pet for both specs. Also, the glyphs you should use should be the same for both specs.

This is just some of the vital information that every decent World of Warcraft hunter guide should have. Other essential knowledge present in a WoW hunter guide would include how to spec and gear for PvP and an explanation of mechanics and talents of the class.
