The Hunter is by far the most versatile of all the World of Warcraft classes. With all the available talent builds, pet options, and their sheer prowess, you can’t go wrong with this class. If your character is a Hunter, this comprehensive guide will guide you to success.

Starting Out

Success in this class starts with taking in consideration if your character is right for the job. Take look at your own personal strengths and make sure that they fit the abilities of a hunter. Remember that the hunter class is more than tracking down and shooting animals. Playing this class can be a little tricky if you don’t pay attention to its strengths and weaknesses.

A hunter can be very effective when it comes to ranged warfare, including the use of bows, guns, or crossbows. They have very strong tracking capabilities, and they know how to fight in order to survive. Pets are used by this class in order to absorb any damage received from attacks. This leaves you more time to play because pets help lessen the damages done to your character.

They aren’t efficient in melee fighting. It is the weakest part of a hunter’s repertoire. This class isn’t eligible for armor until you reach level 40, so this you must take this in consideration in the early levels.

Knowing the strengths and weaknesses of the hunter can now help you come up with a good strategy in dealing with your character’s enemies. Remember that the farther away you are from danger, the better your chances for victory. Investing in a pet is also very significant because pets can help the hunter during melee fighting. Pets fight for their masters. Thus, cutting the hunter some slack when it comes to dealing with enemies.

Picking a Profession for Your Hunter

Playing this class also mean choosing the right profession for your character. You will have to choose a profession that would go well with your character’s strengths and capabilities. I would personally suggest the combination of skinning and leatherworking as it will allow you to make your own armor. Mining and skinning on the other hand is also a great combination because it may allow you to earn more money in order to purchase more weapons and armor for your character.

However, what I wouldn’t suggest are alchemy, tailoring or enchanting as it does not benefit the hunter as much as the other professions I mentioned above. Herbalism can be a profession you may want to try, as this can be used to make your own healing potions. It can be a very significant profession especially before you get a pet to help you out during melee fighting.

The Weapons

As previously stated, the hunter excels at ranged warfare. Concentrate on bows and crossbows, and guns if you have the skill. Initially, you’ll get a pretty basic bow, but as you progress through the levels, you can purchase a better one that will let you earn you more skill and increase your accuracy help. You can also get several other ranged weapons as you complete quests.
