So, for anyone who didn’t check MMO champion this weekend, there was another MLG tournament (3v3 arena). eMg won, running alternately BM hunter/Enh shm/Disc Priest and BM hunter/Enh Shm/Holy Pld. Grats to them on a job well done, but I have to say the stars really aligned for them. Only 1 RMP made it to [...]

5v5 has always been the hunter’s strongest bracket. We’ve never had enough support abilities to really shine in 3v3, and always lacked the burst to dominate 2v2, but in 5v5 playing a hunter feels just right. I really live for the moments when my 5v5 gets to queue. If you are lucky enough to find [...]

Sometime early in s6, hunters looked at the talent hunter vs. wild and thought to themselves, what if I gemmed and enchanted completely for stamina? The desire to make a gimmicky kind of build work is understandable given how successful, in WOTLK alone, stuff like shadowfrost DKs (a phenomenon that appears to be making a [...]

‘Sup folks! Today we’re going to discuss the popular hunter team compositions. Disclaimer: There are a ton of comps that qualify as “viable,” even for a statistically weak class like hunter, but you need to be with competent players. I don’t even have experience with most of the comps I see hunters 2.7k+ with, and [...]

“OK, I got aimed shot… What next?” Hi guys, today we’re going to talk about speccing a hunter for arenas. I will concern myself mostly with 3v3 and 5v5, I will deal with both marks and surv but not beast mastery, and I will address pet talent trees at the end.

Northrend beasts is the first encounter in the new Trial of the Crusader instance. We one-shot it yesterday, and I figured I’d write up what I learned. First and foremost, the neat thing is that at this point in the game, there’s few easily accessable strats, guides, and videos. This is progression on a boss [...]

If you spend a lot of time on the popular forums, like the class specific ones at the Blizzard site or the class specific ones on arenajunkies.com, you will notice a lot of doom ‘n’ gloom posts about 3.2 not being too great for hunters, despite many people’s opinion, including Ghostcrawler’s, that season 6 was [...]

Well, my friends, we are nearly to the end of what some refer to as arena season 6, but I refer to as “That Really Bad Recurring Nightmare”. Patch 3.2 is live already, of course, which means we can all take advantage of the new hunter changes to bump our rating up [ed: how 3.2 [...]

[Rip's editor's note: Jurgwena is back today to talk about Arena UIs. We're going to keep the ratio of PvE to PvP high, but this is exciting stuff for me! Anyways, left to my own devices today, you'd all have been stuck reading the type of nonsense I write when I can't think of any [...]

[Rip's editor's note: Hi folks, today's post is the first OutDPS hunter PvP post! Since I'm a mouth breathing, key turning, button mashing, terribad PvP hunter, I invited someone with a real arena rating to write about this. Put your hands together for Jurgwena! (And yes, that's his real personal rating on his 5v5 team)] [...]

Hey folks, I know, two blegs in a week. I am looking for someone who knows all aspects of Hunter PVP (arena, BGs/WG, dueling, etc) to guest write for OutDPS.com. All I do in PVP is keyturn, fail to find buttons I know are there, mouse click the wrong ones, and generally fail at twitching. [...]
