Huge thanks to Krazyk from Durotan for posting about this on EJ. During the Valithria Dreamwalker event in ICC, the goal is to burn down adds while your healers heal the dragon to full health. Needless to say, the raw healing output of paladins is very useful for this encounter, however there’s something we can [...]

Beastmaster Raid Viability?
Posted in Beast Mastery, Hunter, World of Warcraft, tagged arthas, Beast Mastery, choice, dps, drooling facerollers, icecrown, min-maxing, pve, raiding, spec on February 24, 2010 | 76 Comments »
I promised myself I wouldn’t get into this. People really seem to get divided over the issue and take it way more personally than I think they should. There have been several posts on both sides of the question that got debated endlessly, but I finally decided that I would throw my two cents in. [...]
Aaahhh, Poetry!

So last night’s live podcast went swimmingly- big thanks to all the listeners that showed up! A fun time was had by all. Except Faeghleis, who has to edit all that nonsense into one coherent file for iTunes. Poor dude… In the after-show, Frost and I were chatting about bets. I’ve been trying to angle [...]

Join us this Sunday, February 21 at 8:30 PM EST for a live episode of the Hunting Party Podcast! The uStream player and chat are embedded in the above link, and I’ll post a reminder about this here and on twitter the day of.
Hunting Festergut!
Posted in Hunter, World of Warcraft, tagged boss, festergut, ICC, icecrown citadel, plagueworks, pve, raiding, strategy on February 18, 2010 | 5 Comments »
Festergut is usually the first boss a raid will attempt once they get past Saurfang and his merry band of blood beasts. He is as close to a patchwerk fight as you’ll see in Icecrown, but there’s still some hunter strategy involved. Assuming the tanks and healers are able to keep everyone alive, this is [...]
A Day Late, a Dollar Short!
Posted in Offtopic, tagged does nothing, excuses, eyebleach on February 17, 2010 | 8 Comments »
I’m being reminded by some readers that I haven’t been posting as much as I promised. I have many excuses and explanations, but I’m just taking a moment to promise that it’s all short term things, and that I plan on spending as much (or more!) time writing for outdps as I did before I [...]
The Hunting Party Podcast’s Lich King Special!

This week, Frostheim, Darkbrew, and I talk to Kruf, the hunter from Paragon, the guild from the lightning’s blade- EU realm who got the world first lich king kill. As always, here is the iTunes store link, the Hunting Party Podcast feed, and the direct XML feed. If you email us comments or questions, we’ll [...]
Auction House Column on WoW.com!
Posted in economics, Offtopic, World of Warcraft, tagged AH, auction house, wow.com on February 9, 2010 | 12 Comments »
In case you didn’t catch this at the source, I’ll be writing an auction house column at wow.com. I’m nothing if not tenacious :P This won’t reduce the amount I write about hunters on outdps.com, so don’t worry!
Excellent Explosive Shot Write-up!
Posted in Hunter, Spotlight, Survival, World of Warcraft, tagged explosive shot, garwulf, guide, huntsmans lodge on February 9, 2010 | 9 Comments »
Sorry for the lack of original content- nursing a sick baby. Pro-tip: don’t have kids if you’re squeamish. Blech. Garwulf from the Huntsmans Lodge has written up a very good guide about explosive shot for SV hunters. It answers a lot of questions new hunters have, and even has some gems of wisdom for the [...]
Crowdsourcing Smart!
Posted in addons, Hunter, World of Warcraft, tagged addon, Hunter, skill on February 5, 2010 | 52 Comments »
Hi guys, you may remember that I had an idea for an addon that would help us hunters figure out what DPS we’re leaving on the table and improve our game. Well, luckily, one awesome reader stepped forward to code this. Pherra has already written the first version of the addon! It’s still in pre-pre-alpha, [...]
Ensidia Banned?!
Posted in Offtopic, World of Warcraft, tagged ban, blizzard, Ensidia, exploit, lack of testing, lich king, shark jumping is the new olympic sport on February 4, 2010 | 44 Comments »
Edit: Upon further research, I think I might have jumped the shark gun. Evidently, the only way to hit the platform with a frag bomb is if you aim for it. Unless you hit it by accident while you’re hitting adds. I’m going to leave this post here as a testament to my tendency to [...]
Who Said Hunters Can’t Sing?
Posted in Offtopic, Spotlight, World of Warcraft, tagged boss kill, louis armstrong, mashup, video, yogg saron, youtube on February 3, 2010 | 3 Comments »
Alpacaa produced quite possibly one of the best Louis Armstrong / Yogg Saron mashups I have ever heard. Well, one of the only ones, but it’s still one of the funniest boss kill videos I’ve watched. He wrote the lyrics and sang this himself (video embedded after the break). For more Alpacaa boss videos, check [...]
Hunter Round Table at Raid Warning!
Posted in Hunter, Offtopic, World of Warcraft, tagged Hunter, raid warning, round table on February 2, 2010 | 5 Comments »
Thanks to the excellent hosts of Raid Warning for inviting me to participate on their hunter round table! My segment was debating a variety of things with the illustrious Brigwyn, and there are other segments with: Daewin, also of the Hunting Lodge Podcast The Wych, of Bind on Equip Nassira, of Diaries of a Marksman [...]
Tanking Keleseth

As a hunter you may be called on to tank one of the ICC blood princes, Keleseth. While there are a number of approaches to tanking him for different classes, this post will describe how a hunter can do it and do it well.
