Newsflash: Beast Mastery comes out on top in 25 man Obsidian Sanctum run!

Thunderstomp, Furious Howl, Savage Rend and Pummel

Hunter Pet Skill Changes in 3.1
Raptors, Wolves, Gorillas and the rest of the Tenacity tree are getting some love in 3.1.

Savage Rend (Raptor) now temporarily boost the raptor’s damage by 10% for 30 seconds.

That looks like a pretty huge buff to me. It gives the Raptor Exotic Pet damage for 30 seconds and a 5% [...]

Pitbull 4

February 26, 2009

I downloaded and installed Pitbull 4 from Wowace.com last night and so far I really like it. It’s not ready for release yet, but it has most of the necessary functionality aside from raid frames. It’s also much easier to configure than its predecessor. Being that I spent some time with Pitbull before, I had [...]

25 Man Vault of Archavon

February 23, 2009

Last night I stuck around after the Wintergrasp victory to join a 25 man VoA run. I didn’t get lucky with the loots, but I did have good fortune with the damage meters. Thankfully there were no Survival Hunters in our raid group to make me look bad. Being that this was [...]

Hunter Macros Updated… Finally!

I finally sat down last night and updated the “Useful Hunter Macros” page with my most recent collection of WotLK compliant and relevant macros. There are some Beast Mastery specific macros included in there, but none exclusive to other Hunter builds. I even added a small section near the bottom that contains a few simple [...]
