Edit: This guide is somewhat out of date, find the new one here. One of the things I do to kill time before a raid is solo normal Stonecore.  This dungeon has a well-earned reputation for being a pug-killer on Heroic mode, but on normal it is actually soloable by hunters.  I go there for [...]

This is the second in a series of posts on hunter abilities that commonly aren’t used to their potential in PVE.  Last time we looked at Tranquilizing Shot and this time it is Disengage‘s turn.

This is the first in a new series of posts on hunter abilities that are underused and/or misunderstood in PVE. Tranq Shot is an appropriate inaugural topic, I think, given its common absence from hunter bars and the renewed attention that Blizzard has given to non-dps abilities like interrupts and dispels in Cataclysm.

Again these things change fast, so it’s already outdated, but this is what we had to say about it last weekend. Here’s the site where we host our shows live. As always, here is the iTunes store link, the Hunting [...]

Yes, SV is getting its damage reduced.  However, there’s a lot more going on in this patch that merits our attention.  I’d really encourage you to read the whole set of patch notes.  If you need an incentive, know that there’s gems like this:   Hunters can now use Auto Shot while moving. Wow.

This week, we welcome Kripparrian, hunter extraordinaire from the Exodus guild on Ysondre-US! This episode was recorded two weeks ago, and in it, we talk about the impending nerfs, some persistent bugs, and the best practices for playing a hunter at the highest possible level of content. Here’s the site where we host our shows live. As [...]

I’ve written about healers for OutDPS before, but I think that with Cataclysm our relationship with them merits revisiting.  Players are still learning the mechanics of even the 5mans, leading to lots of standing in fire in all settings.  Healers go oom more often and have less capacity for emergency triage owing to Blizzard’s decision to make [...]

I was playing around with Zeherah’s online dps modeler and found that four pieces of ilvl 352 Bloodthirsty pvp gear were better for my dps than the pieces of ilvl 346 pve gear I had equipped.  This was true for all three specs (an SV dungeon build, an MM dungeon build and a standard BM build) that I ran through [...]
