While taming a pet that enables a healing tree is conceivable, our having tenacity pets already suggests that we hunters would most likely end up with a tanking tree were we to be hybridized. It would not [...]

Here at the end of Wrath I’ve been playing a couple alts, a tank and a healer. While learning about these other sides to WoW, I’ve come across a great number of hunters. I took notes because it was interesting being on the outside of hunterdom looking in. In this post I’ll go over some [...]
