Rogues are tough to fight since they can snare/stun you almost all the time. Probably the hardest fight for a Hunter to win, since they can hardly do anything if they're not at range. Luckily we have a ton of skills to help keep a rogue away. FD+traps, concussion shot, scatter shot, wing clip. Scorpid sting is a massive STR and AGI reduction. Just have to make use of the skills available and hope things don't get resisted/miss.

Guys, I have a question. I've seen people who aren't hunters and warlocks running around with little pets. I've seen a panda cub, and tonight I saw something I hadn't seen before. It was a tiny devil, all red with black horns with the name like "Tiny Hellord". It was different then a warlocks devil, in fact it kind of reminded me of one of the devils from the Doom. How does one get one of these things? If not, a panda cub at least?

Speaking of pets, got my Succubus today. The random whip sound effects and the sounds they make are, suggestive. Couldn't try the succubus out though, but looking at the stats, she seems to have better tanking ability than the imp and more damage than the voidwalker.

Zap: Rogues DO have detect trap ;P Plus I dont mind the waiting game, I dont see why I have to attack you if im perfectly hidden off in the distance. Unless you get a mark off of course 
I dunno, im just not one of those crazy combat rogues (still a respected approach, but also still crazy), every talent ive earned so far has been put into subtlety.
Got my Rogue to level 25 tonight. Convinced the higher level you get the goofier you have to look. Sigh. Oh well, I do lots o the damage and dodge like crazy. Dex 103 and rising!

I am talking about duels.
Of course in a PVP area, who wins depends really on who sees who first. But Feign death can force me to leave combat mode whereupon I can place a new trap.

Vanish lets me leave combat too ;P
Does Hunter's Mark block Vanish though? If the Hunter gets the jump, I struggle alot to win the fight, especially with the pet dazing you as you run towards the hunter. If you Gouge the pet, you're more then likely going to be under Concussive shot from the hunter as you try to get to him.
I find Hunters harder to beat i must admit.

Well Hunters are versitile, that is why they are harder to beat really.
Hunters mark stays on you when you vanish and the Hunter can see you the entire time, but it does not stop you from vanishing and removing snares and roots. I have no idea if people other than the hunter can see you or not, as you still go into stealth and are transparent. 
One day I will test this... but really it doesn't matter. If a hunter is snaring you and backing up, you're using the vanish to charge him - not to get away. You also have sprint for this purpose. Rogue's with preparation can use both these moves twice in one fight if they want to, also.

Blizzard are pretty funny with these subtle things

I was on at the time, but I was not part of the raid. I was busy questing and a friend sent me a tell saying an enormous amount of people were getting together in orgrimmar to raid stormwind. I just thought to myself "this is so dumb, they're not gonna accomplish anything." Two hours later I'm in org and there's a message in general chat thanking everyone for participating in what was evidently a huge success. I should've joined. Dammit.

AM I the only one that thinks it makes sense for hunters not Pallys or warlocks to get a free mount as a class perk? Apperently on the offical froums I'm a crazy man.

If I can train a pet to take an ass beating on my behalf, I should be able to train a pet to lug me around. I don't think anyone should get free mounts, but if ANYONE should qualify for it, it should be hunters.

I'm more bothered by Paladins getting them, at least you could justify a Warlock summoning a pet to ride, but why the fuck do Paladins get anything?
I'm firm on good support Paladins being very helpful and challenging to play, and that they aren't overpowered, IMO. However, even when you single out the 0.5% of talented Pallies, they're still fucking spoiled.

Death Knights are rumored to be one of the hero classes.
Another rumor going around is that the first bg Blizzard has planned for us is going to be capped at lvl 49? If they don't have one for 50+'s, there's going to be a ton of ppl pissing, moaning, and cancelling. Maybe that's the reason for the delay?
Anyways, they really should do something for those of us dying to get in them, maybe release preview 2?

Would anybody be kind and go to the official forum and post a suggestion for me? Feel free to correct my grammatic and mathematical flaws.

There should be a lottery in wow. I mean come on. Who doesn't want to be a millionair?
Everybody should be able to buy a ticket. It should be fairly cheap. 5 silver maybe. All the money from the tickets go into a huge pool. Every friday the winner is found. If 50.000 people buys a ticket the winner receives 2500 gold.
It's not hard to do this. Each ticket should have a row of 6 random numbers ranging from 0-9. Blizzard then every friday picks 6 random numbers ranging from 0-9. If nobody hits the numbers the lottery continues and the pools just grows until somebody wins.
6 random numbers is one in a million chance.

Ok... so I'm going to finish of Maraudon this weekend...
but they're rewarding 2 truly excellent items for me as a hunter. I'm really conflicted as to which item I should get;
Thrash Blade
or
Verdant Keeper's Aim
On one hand, bows are my main weapon... and that bow will serve me until LV56+ or unless I can find a whirldwind or some such. I might not even be able to find a green replacement for the bow past LV56, but I'll definetly keep an eye peeled.
OTOH, the thrashblade is awesome. It's definetly a weapon that can still be used at 60, doing comparable to high level green DPS, with a great chance on hit effect.

damn this thread moves fast....
Hunters only get one set of quests at level 10.....at least they should give some lube when you create a hunter...or at least a diner. I love being a hunter but it feels like they left stuff out ESPECIALLY in the class quest area. I really don't see it being a problem saving for a mount it just annoies me hunters....who tame beast have to save up for a mount, yet pally just get one.
Hunters feel so f'din the ass. Track hidden doesn't track shit, Mark of the Hawk is broken, stables are broken, there are more beast you can't tame then you can, unless your an NPC you pet is a runt, you pets don't grow stat wise so you have to keep trading them in every so often (which I don't
), if you have a cat you can learn 4 abilities 2 of which conflict (growl and cower) other wise too bad...which is odd cause i only played a warlock to about lvl 10 and it seems thier pets can lear alot more, can't make bows or arrows, we loose at least one bag slot and depending how hungry your pet is probally half a 10 slot bag for pet food. You get one lvl 10 class quest, and after 40 levels of BEAST MASTERY amonst other things you have to pay for your mount. Beast Mastery...it's in our skill tree....do Pallys have anything to do with baest besides killing them while uber buffed?Ronaldo...there not lottery but players set up casino's usally near the AH in IF and sapm gen chat. Yeah thats what IF AH needs more people to create more lag.

I totally understand the free mounts not being fair (moreso for paladins), but if Warlocks didn't get the nightmare mount, NO ONE would play the class.
Slight exaggeration? Yes, but Warlocks are easily the least played class next to priests on most servers.

Well, not sure how many of you are priests in the game but all classes should take a second look at their skills.
Priests get a skill called mind soothe, basically it makes mobs non-agro unless you're very close to them. Basically a travel spell so you don't fight everything while you're walking around or collecting ingredients. This spell is harmless to players. Today (Thursday) there was a 16 hour maintenance on a few of the servers. These servers are reporting that Mind soothe, which was originally an instant cast on any mob, has now been changed to a 1.5-2 second cast time and only works on humanoids, where before it worked on everything, beasts, demons, humans, etc. Also before this "maintenance" it wouldn't agro the mob if it failed, now if it fails it agros the mob.
Now the fun stuff...The 16 hour maintenance was not suppose to change anything game wise, at least as far as anyone knew, but this change went in. There is no mention of it anywhere that this change was going to occur, it was basically a stealth nerf. To top it all off, the text for the spell still remains the same, instant cast on all mobs, but the actual spell is completely different.
Not sure if any other skills for other classes have been changed, but just as an fyi, if you notice your spells are a little different, even though the text is the same, they may have actually changed it during the 16 hour maintenance without changing the text.
BTW this is only affecting the servers that went down for 16 hours, all other servers still have the old instant cast spell.

OK, after further reading Druids have also been affected by this secret change with their spell Soothe Animal.
Also for some of you rogues out there, there are reports that some elite mobs have gained super stealth detection so that you can't sneak by them no matter what lvl you are. So be careful out there!
And also the following can no longer be charmed Hederine Initiate, Hederine Manastalker, and Hederine Slayers. Of course I have no idea what/who/where they are.

Priests are calling for the Blizz dev's heads after this change

It's fun when a hunter feigns death vs my warlock... it doesn't clear dots so I just run up and melee them (have to reactivate attack) until they really die. I've gotten used to it because there's a couple really terrible night elf hunters who try to attack crossroads a lot and abuse the shadowmeld bug to kill people.Zaptruder said:
