Hunter – A Class Apart
The Hunter is a great class to play and is mainly known for his ability to have a pet at his side while shooting from distance. As a low level Hunter you will have to do the killing alone but at level 10 you will be able to complete a small chain quest which will reward you with the Tame Beast ability.
With a pet at the Hunter’s side leveling truly becomes a walk in the park. By sending in your pet and firing a few shots from distance yourself you will be easily taking out most of your enemies. Besides being able to control a pet Hunters can do a lot of other neat stuff like firing different kinds of stings and shots on their enemies. Click here to watch the video Hunter Guide
One of these abilities is the ability to place trap which can do quite a bit of damage and freeze or slow a target. Even though only one trap can be active at the time it gives a great boost to the playability of a Hunter. Hunters are also known for their ability to Feign Death which makes them act as if they are dead which resets fights and can save the Hunter from tricky situations.
Next to being very good in solo situations a Hunter is also a good asset to Dungeon, Raid and PvP groups. The Hunters become even stronger through the talent trees and because of their traps which can come in handy in instances and PvP as well they are very nice to have in your team. Their pets can be used to get enemies of the healers in the groups and add to the overall damage.
The Hunter itself can dish out great amounts of damage and also have an ability called Misdirect which directs the threat caused by the three first following shots of the Hunter to the tank which makes the whole group’s job a lot easier. The tank will have an easier time tanking while the healer only has to focus his heals on the tank and the damage dealers don’t have to watch their agro all the time. The Hunter class is unique and this is the reason why many people have decided to play a Hunter in the past.

It can be a hard task to find a spot in a party or raid from time to time and that is why it is advised to join a guild so you’ll have an easier time to do some instances. One of the most important things is that you have a build that suits you best and allows you to assist the group in the best way possible or to deal massive amounts of damage. As a Hunter you will be able to choose between the following talent trees: Beast Mastery, Survival and Marksmanship.
Beast Master is definitely the best tree for leveling. Because the pet gets a lot of boosts in this talent tree the Hunter can basically send in the pet to attack several mobs and go drink a cup of coffee while his pet slays everything around him. On top of an immensely strong pet a Beast Master Hunter will also be able to run faster which also increases the leveling speed.
As a Marksmanship Hunter you will gain access to a variety of shots and stings, basically increasing your damage. This build is normally chosen by Hunters that like to appear on the top of damage meters. Because the Survival built makes the Hunter tougher and improves his traps it is great for PvP.
You will receive more Stamina and avoidance with this talent tree. On top of that you will also gain access to a few shots that are great for PvP like Explosive and Scatter Shot.
