Hunter Basics: The Jump Shot

March 8, 2010

If you’ve played a hunter for any significant amount of time, you’ve probably at least heard of the jump shot.
While running away from an enemy target, the hunter spins around 180 degrees, fires a shot, spins back around, and continues to run in the original direction.
When I first read about this move, it was regarding [...]

This is more like it

March 3, 2010

I just peeped this update to Ferocious Inspiration over at MMO-Champion. Seems the latest PTR build has a new and improved Ferocious Inspiration that includes both Arcane Shot and Steady Shot.

See… I knew there was going to be more love on the way. Everyone’s happy now too. I’m pleased that my PvP damage [...]

BM PvP Guide – Part 3: Shot priority and other ponderings

February 23, 2010

Welcome to the long overdue latest installment of my series on BM PvP. This post was actually scratched out in December, but never quite finished. Anyway, I revisited it, added a couple things, groomed it a little bit, and voila! A new post!
So, without further ado… let’s get to it.
While not as cut [...]

Beast Mastery PvP Spec Redux

January 13, 2010

So last you heard from me, I was getting ready to try out a Core Hound for use in arena. To bring some of you up to speed, my only arena team this past season has been a 2v2 with a Ret Paladin. I like 2v2 because it only requires one other person, and in [...]

Time to bring the pain

January 2, 2010

Coincidentally, just after posting my thoughts on BM PvP pets, I’ve finally decided to try out a Core Hound for arena.
I’d been contemplating the idea for awhile now, ever since I’d first heard about pets getting the hunter’s full resilience, but I just couldn’t justify using one over a Chimaera. However, after hitting our proverbial [...]

Postus Interruptus

December 27, 2009

Last you heard from me, I was hoping to get my BM PvP guide up on Christmas Eve. Ha! I should have known better. Silly me to think that I’d finish a massive blog post during the busiest holiday of the year.
I should have “part one” up by tomorrow.
I just wanted to let [...]

Sorry no post today (yesterday that is)

December 24, 2009

…I’ve been busy writing my book…err… guide on BM PvP. Being that it’s nowhere near finished and approaching 4.6K words is why I kid about it being “book” status.
Maybe one day when I get the hang of this blogging thing I’ll be able to write brief concise guides. Until then, you must endure the massive [...]

Why Alchemy is better than you think

December 16, 2009

Alchemy is a great (and possibly the best) DPS profession because of one thing: versatility.
Alchemy offers opportunities to tailor your DPS output on the fly, fight to fight, even phase to phase, that no other profession can compete with, for example:
You’re fighting the Northrend Beasts, you blew your cooldowns on Gormokk right from the jump, [...]

Despite my huge PvPness

December 11, 2009

…I finally just got the Black War Bear mount last weekend.
In fact, the only Horde city raid I’d ever participated in was at level 70 when we attacked Silvermoon and wiped with Theron at 2%. Since then, I’ve wanted this achievement, but for whatever reason was never able to find a group for it. When [...]
