Never ever let enemies get in melee range. While having a melee weapon is obviously recommended, there really isn't any need to melee. Well. At some point you will get an attack called "Wing Clip". It stuns enemies. If a Warrior "Charges" you, Wing Clip that troll.
One of the best hunter guides is a BRK (Big Red Kitty). Just check couple baby hunter guide movies and you can be sure that you are one step closer to master that class =)
omg lmao. Okay, hunters are best known for ranged attacks, not for melee. So try your best to strafe and kite and just shoot their asses. lol But yeah the vid made me lawl. As far as why you were in the thingy was because you killed your friend, or so the cutscene says. o.O
its better to run forward and turn around then it is to back pedal and yeah everyone blames the hunter when ever shit goes down which is total BS, and ... maybe read the quests or pay attention to lore and you'll know what going on lol XD
@WoWShhadow Very cool man :) This is quite helpful :) I am thinking about buying me a Razer Naga this weekend... This sounds like some advanced shit but I'm gonna go for it :)
when i "kite" i side strafe and jump turn shot then continue keeping your side strafe up in lowbie pvp lock for example rogues out from using backstab, also steady shot and later on cobra shot (lvl 81) help you regain focus, signiture moves like kill command, explosive shot and chimera shot cost alot of focus and have pretty long cooldown so while waiting for that shot to get of CD you use steady or cobra (depending on specc) to regain enough focus to use sign move again
For hunters melee is almost like an OHSHT button, most of the hunter melee attacks slow enemies etc so you can get the distance to get shots off again. Using S isnt all bad if you're in a group or whatever, but strafing with Q and E is much better and easier after a little bit of practice. Also try flick shooting, basically you run forwards (away from the mob) and flick your mouse around to face the mob and get a shot off before flicking it back. Alot faster than S and after a bit pretty easy.
Seen a lot of helpful comments about kiting on this video, It's a great thing to practice for any class. If you want to really commit to what is, imo, the best way to move, rebind A and D to strafe, S to your mount and use your right mouse button to turn. Takes a little getting used to, but it made me a better player. (In fact I use E, S and F to move, but that's another story...)
@PaulFace Woah, I'm gonna have to look into this, as I am not too familiar with rebinding! :) I will give it a crack (I might even video my fails) and let you know :)
Haha, dude, that's how I live my life. If I couldn't laugh at myself I'd be dead right now.
I was thinking while you're leveling these characters it would be a good idea to do a Noob School Dungeon spin-off, especially with the changes to the low level instances. Gnomeregan is still shit btw.
I am definitely gonna do up some dungeon spin off noob skools. I am also gonna open things up to video responses. I will be announcing it today in my next noob skool :)
EVERYONE HATES GNOMEREGAN! I was lvling yesterday and on my FOURTH successive run through that pit of rancid self flagellation the tank took us down the bit with the fucking Trogg invasion, I haven't cried like that since I had to go back to Outlands. (Yes, this is my second alt since Cata, don't judge me.)
Looking forward to the new vid, is it Shammy time today?
@PaulFace Ouch. Thats no fun man. :( Today is more hunter, with me (trying) to incorporate the awesome feedback I got on my last Noob Skool vid. I am gonna test some shit out, get some feedback, make fun of myself, and make the odd joke here and there. Tom. will be Shammy time I suspect.
Everytime you start introducing your safe, i need to turn down my volume about 50% because you are yelling the shit out of my ears. Its funny stuff, though.
Big C! are you Canadian?! because you talk like me, if you are Canadian i will.... doo stuff., not sure of what yet though! but there will be STUFF done!
backpeddaling is slower than run speed (strafe and forward running) therefore it is not productive in a combat situation as moving slower than needed is noobish... backpeddaling for an class is a no no... a good hunter will mouse turn 180 degrees, hit strafe and jump in the backward direction while spinning in the air to get off a shot at the target and before hitting the ground, spin the mouse back again to 180 degrees, hit strafe and jump again.. in this way you move back from target..
It is them just bitching cuz if you don't you die to help when you get slows like frost trap, concusive shot and wing clip but you need to learn how to kite and 85 hunter so I think I know what I'm talking about
Once you learn the ability concussive shot this helps what is called "Kiting". Kiting is what a hunter does best and it is staying at range so you can do your ranged attacks and moving away at the same time. The best way to do this is shooting them with concussive shot when it is up / appropriate and using instant shots to do damage. Also, do not use 's' or backpedal while kiting, it is more efficient to use 'Q' or 'E' to -strafe-. I would recommend spec'ing Survival.
use q and e to strafe, if u backpeddle u die, id suggest removing the s key as a keybind, and as for what u seem to like, go bm, u can get rarer pets, who r cooler and sexier ^_^
You shouldn't need to back peddle when leveling. You need to summon your pet or revive it If it's dead. Your pet should keep aggro from you so you can just shot the mob.
You should just not back peddle in pvp cus it's easier for people to catch you and u should just kite them by strafing :-)
The backpeddling QQ is just elitist arenaers trying to belittle you, same way people QQ if you click your spells, or keyboard turn. There is nothing wrong with any of this, sure, keyboard turners will find it hard to out maneuver a mouse mover, same for clicker/keybinder etc You arn't hurting anyone by doing this though, just keep doing what you feel comfortable doing Big C, nothing wrong with backpeddling here, it's called "Noob Skool", not "how to get to 2.8k rating"
Basics use Call Pet and use your pet to hold aggro(Revive Pet if he's dead) keep a safe distance and nuke the mobs down never walk backwards (s) and always walk away sideways (q or e) dont keyboard turn, but use your right mouse button for lvling: spec beast mastery tame a Tenacity pet (such as bears or boars) spec your pet so that he got much stamina and armor gear: Hit Rating (until capped) > Agility > Crit > Mastery > Haste i hope you can learn something from this ;) good luck :D
hey Big C i think i remember you saying you play on illidan and i also do i am starting a dwarf prot pally wondering if you wana run a few dungeons or BGs while we lvl
You need to kite and dont melee thats not what hunters do and the hunters DPS is insane

Because instead if Back Pedaling wich is 10 times slower and looks stupid also u can walk back by Left and Right and your Mouse.

SPEC BM - Must have macro #showtooltip
/castsequence reset=9 hunter’s mark, auto shot, petattack
Once you have concussive shot use the above macro then concussive shot, serpent sting and move away (dont run backward turn and burn)
Get an addon for range finding (helpful for casters too) you want to stay at max range as much as possible.
