| [WotLK] Hunter Explosive Shot and Volley
here's something very interesting from the Beta for Hunters. Explosive shot is awesome and possibly OP.

I might have to get a time card and get my hunter to 70 for before wotlk. If explosive shot stays that way thats gonna be insane. |

I was denied viewing at work! What is this new Hunter feature!?
EDIT: That isn't the talent in MM that uses up Stings and reduces melee dmg of the target, etc. is it? I forget the name.

Haha, that was awesome. I might have to level my hunter when Wotlk comes out! (I leveled him for snakes in a trap before, this might be enough to level him again!) |

This is just too funny. I thought I'd never go back to my Alliance hunter now that I've quit raiding, but this just might be enough to make me level it to 80.
Good to see we get a new toy. Something that finally makes PvP on a hunter as easy as PvE? If the 'tards can beat someone one on one with this, then I'm going for a decent rating on mine.
I just might come to fall back in love with my wow-for-'tards class.
(I actually get people still asking me how I got my T5/T6 gear, 'I'm a hunter dipshit, how do you think I got it?.. pew, pew, FD, pew, pew, big lotoz for me..')

If you registered, I suspect that you could see the movie attachment Nope, my work computer will block all streaming video and pictures whose URL are based in any social websites such as photobucket, myspace, youtube, etc. The only pictures that work for me are those uploaded to this website such as what's found in the wotlk beta gems, deathknight starting gear, etc. If it's not too much trouble. Otherwise, I'll look when I get home. |

The only OP thing I see about it is the limitless number of enemies it can hit.
If it does that in a BG... that's just sick and get ready for the QQ to commence. |

By registering with BBR, you get access to things like attachment downloads (which in this case, is what the movie is).
I just checked. If you're unregistered (or not logged in), you can see the link but you cannot download it. It states:
You must be logged into dslreports.com in order to download forum attachments bigger than 2 megabytes in size.
Downloading using parallel requests (download accelerators) are detected and disabled. --

said by mlody :sadly neither ability will do a damn thing to help hunter's in arena I could see us hitting all 5 of your opposition at once with huge damage. But then again, who knows what 'huge damage' is at level 80? Could be that 1-2k is no better than 100-200 at level 70.
The main benefit though is finally having some AOE that's actually worth using. Until now the best we've had is being able to interrupt a mass of players capping a flag. The current volley is no more than mosquito bites, but it is enough to prevent a cap.
This could give us some close range damage that's actually worthy of the name AOE. The biggest problems we have in Arena is no defense against CC and not being able to do much damage at close range. If this damage is effective, it sorts the second for us. |

Bartlesville, OK | no offense, but 2k raptor strikes is hardly what i would call "not being able to do much damage at close range". |

| said by Tehuno :no offense, but 2k raptor strikes is hardly what i would call "not being able to do much damage at close range". the days of 2k raptop strikes are gone - long gone.
s3 axe speed was nerfed from 3.6 to 3.0 - most hunters in full pvp gear do not have a lot of AP vs PvE gear and to get 2k raptor one would have to be in full PvE gear and hit someone without any resiliance and cloth - unrealistic at this point. Hunter's on high end arena teams usually run with 2x1h with intel enchants and those hit for almost nothing - a wand will hit for more damage and most likely quicker. Also raptor strike has 6 sec CD, so hunter who waits 6 sec to hit raptop strike again = dead hunter. |
