How to Hunter - Getting Started

[gzkyg34]

hey brang whats is the best lelvng-tank pet now stll bear? cause we get rhinos now please reply

[holdondota]

Hey, I am in a wotlk private and I was wondering how do used to managed the pet focus, setting Claw to autocast cosumes energy in a few secs. There is a bug so you cant turn off the autocast with a macro. I decided to turn claw autocast off and macro it in the bar.

Also, how do you track pet cooldowns (like thunderstomp in 5:18)

Thanks!

[LossGaming]

I remember when I used to have to pay 40g/st for my bow..

I don't miss them days, one fucking bit.

[Mud69Pie]

you can use this in cata if your not mental retarded

[ehabvsall]

ur a gold brang ty alot.

[WaRnEr1080]

ammo? hunters dont need ammo? WTF

[Brogthak]

@WaRnEr1080 This video is outdated. Back in the days Hunters needed ammo.

[Andresg0689]

You need create a video for Kitting!

[Natrix1903]

yeah i got it already :D thx man 

[antonj9393]

How do u strafe? plz tell me :D soz for being an idiot xD

[Natrix1903]

i just started wow and have some probs with kiting.. how can u run forward and look behind you? if i want to do this it always turns the sight and i have to move backwards..

[FrostyPotion]

@Natrix1903 you have to change the camera to never adjust. Other wise you wont be able to kite like this.

[lCebollal]

Old? Outdated? Mana Hunter?

Who fucking cares? This is one of the most extremely useful guides of ANY WoW class I've ever seen on my entire life.

Good Job, Brang.

[TheJordanHanna]

Great

[Chrijz]

@MightyMegaMidget Is leatherworking really a good option then for PVP, as you can buy the armorkits at the auctionhouse?

[Chrijz]

Engineering is mostly great for PVP hunters because of Nitro Boosts enchant, if you don't need that (because you're into PVE), then you might as well let your deathknight-alt be an engineer to make arrows/bullets for your hunter.

[HellSiega666]

its pretty hard to kite war

[celtic889]

great vid brang :D

[Fameeless]

man, you are playing in 800x600 ?

[thelulman101]

epic... no other words to describe it

[reaper342]

how come u like dont have a mouse

[Introduced1]

idk if you will respond to this but im really interested in becoming a hunter do you kite with your mouse after you bind your keys to ad?

[xOGPREDETOR]

you should make one for cata

[icallBS100]

oh volley how much i miss u 

[1Datey]

how come i can't use the macro on Razor naga mouse button?

[elivaldoo2]

how u change skills in your bar ? Oo'

[champpro1]

best video on kiting , all the others teaches you how to kite like a noob (180 degrees way).

[poopmcstink]

omfg thank you i just started playing wow a couple days ago.... i am a noob and i appreciate this video

[PlayStefan]

surprised no one's said this already, the opening theme/song is from thief the dark project from the cutscene to mission 7 "the sword" (now I get Brang's youtube name :D)

[DennisChambers113]

Since turning left and right isn't bound anymore, does he use the two mouse buttons to move left and right?

[Lilflake23]

I like how you said *Make sure you look infront of you when you kite*

As i lvled in vinalla i constantly ignored what was infront of me lol, and the next thing i realize im kiting groups of mobs XD

[Wortexqq]

Awesome video! Me like, me like it a lot! Hehehe....

[Drjersey]

Which engineering is best for MM hunters Gnome or Goblin ?D;

[Nicos2597]

at what things is beast mastery useful PVP dungeons or lvling?i have a hunter lvl 30 markmanship and what spec i should take for secondary?i do dungeons i have all heirlooms

[bottleogravedigger]

R.I.P. bear swipe they took it away from us =[

[hanipap]

lol dude, hunters doesnt cast or use spells. They use Abilities

[Yojiibochan]

@hanipap same shit, different name, on this matter ;)

[spiderreko]

Best tactics for 80 (Marksman) Is steady shot 5 times untill you get aimed shot without any loading time (Bonus) And then chinemra shot or however you spell it your crits can be up too 24k per shot meaning amed shot about 22k then the chinemra shot about 24 23k it's good tacitc ;) thumbs up if you agree :D

[sly5001]

does the [Mod: shift] and [nomod] still work?

[SpecialMayonaise]

Thanks helpfull vid.

[rutenkoxaber]

one cannot simply rock in mordor

[MrCeldrin]

I wanted to ask you howI can switch the skills how you did it in the video. I made all what you said in your video.

[Helljumper1146]

>:<



[Gears2blows69]

Very nice vid was wondering if you cam make a new guide for cata since everything has changed a lot for hunters

[Surgors]

Very nice video!!! It is very helpful for me! Thanks a lot!!!

[Procop08]

i really want to learn the kitting how u do ,, i am trying but i got som problems.

i changed mu key binding and if i press A then i will be strafing to one side where i cant see the enemy at all in the screen.

to make the enemy to be visible on the screen i have to hold left mouse button, then only i can see him on the screen and left hand on keys and right hand on mouse i fell how am i going to use spells when we run like u do ,,, i knw som thing is wrong but cant find it any help if u can.

[7980Jaden]

@Procop08 Go to the interface in the game menu. Go to the camera options. From there there will br an option to make the camera stay where it is while you are moving. Hope this helped. :)

[wmc1995]

Where did u get the white bear dude? And why does this happen to me? when i tame a beast it becomes smaller =( how can i get big bears ?

[KelthuzadGuldan]

jajaja nice video i like cartoon 2:36 jajajjajajaja =P

[AberraProductions]

when i do the shift mod macro thing it doesnt show the pic change like u it works but i want it to change pic :)

[AberraProductions]

@AberraProductions nvm

[xOGPREDETOR]

which proffesions do u use brang

[xOGPREDETOR]

does this still work for cata

[wcstrickland1997]

I was watching Borderland videos... how the fuck did i get here???

[NFMking]

2:10 "You will NEVER succeed as a hunter by backpedaling." What are you talkin' about? You got the boar killed, didn't you?

[BatafCube]

@NFMking Yea but imagen it in PvP vs a Arms Warrior.........

[19sionknight19]

@NFMking He killed melee-killed the boar :3 Melee Hunter? - Bad * Bow Hunter - Great :3

[NFMking]

@19sionknight19 i kkno i was being sarcastic

[tomtom3452]

If I ever recruit another person to wow, and they pick a ranged class, ill probably show them this cus you explain kiting well ;p

[ebertibioso]

LOOK IM A SV HUNTER, SO I HAVE BE SHOTING SERPENT STINGS EACH 15 SECS BUT SOMETIMES I FORGET, DO U KNOW ANYMACRO THAT SHOWS ME A TIMER OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT? TO SHOW ME WHEN TO THROW IT AGAIN

THANK YOU :D

[IsmartheGreat]

@ebertibioso There is a bunch of different add ons on Curse.

[FlyMeProductions]

@ebertibioso there is an add-on called CLASSTIMERS amazing for sv hunters =D

[grangarian]

@Dingers1994 haha, it's not really a white bear, it's a Ferocious Grizzled Bear that can be found in Silverpine Forest.

[zXxSinDitxXz]

Brang is it posible to list all your macros that you use ingame? Thanks.

[sprinktwink]

why dont u talk in ur videos?

[xIISPeNCeR]

where did you get the bear

[NewCloudsWoW]

Thank you so much for this vid!

[pallypowerftw]

did u level this hunter all the way simply to make a video? haha if u did thats chill. i like lvling hunters. its fun.

[Eluno91]

What's the name of AddOn that show huge icon of currently ability used?

[MrGrebbi]

@Keeper01

Great tips and info, but its all outdated now :(

Could you maybe bring this guide up to date?

[hallelujah59]

Another useful macro for hunters, not in combat, but it saves you space in action bars:

/cast Aspect of the Hawk

/cast Aspect of the Cheetah

This can only be done with two aspects at a time, but anyhow, using this macro will switch between Aspect of the Hawk and Cheetah.

This do also work with Auras and Stances. Just replace the Aspects with stances or auras!

[flamefox0138]

@hallelujah59 what you want to do to that macro is make it a cast sequence like this

#showtooltip

/castsequence Aspect of the Hawk, Aspect of the Cheetah

this wi automaticly switch your aspect and the icon will change so you can see what your doing.

[hallelujah59]

1. Did you level a hunter to Outlands and higher, for one vid?

2. For the macro, can I change the macro to /Cast [mod:ctrl] and it will still work but with Ctrl instead of Shift?

3. Will there be any more vids? ;D

[100001100001]

BRANG UR OUR HERO

[gage1xlsz]

I love kiting, lol. Ever since I heard of kiting ,which was in vanilla, I've been doing it since then and It's made me a very successful hunter, along with key bindings and all.

[llDnBll]

probably one of the best hunter guide's ive ever seen

[THEENGLISHWAFFLE]

lol u made me lvl a hunter... only lvl 60 at the moment but now i cant play any other class lol

[ChibiHoboProductions]

Personally, I keep q and e as strafe keys and I bind other junk to a, s, and d. I find it keeps binds easier to reach. (Easier to curl finger sup than stretch them out), but that's just my cool story, bro.

[g4ngst4adam]

i gonna name my hunter orlandobloom :) or what ever that fag is called.

[ROFLPawno]

What was the website you where on to see different talents for pets and comparing damage and health Ect...? Nice video :)

[2009Battlefield]

Woah dude you are awesome hunter (FAVOURITE)

[chrisman212121]

that's what i call pro hunter :X

[kraks11]

Ow btw, A gorilla is nice for leveling pet because of the thunder stomp. Its is so awesome to hold aggro on many MANY mobs. When i leveled my hunter i used to pull 5-8 mobs with gorilla, mend and volley. This worked very well 1.5 years ago.

[kraks11]

This was really a great video man.!

[x3surx]

thanks man!! really i apperciate it.. u really made my lvling and pvping easier !!

thank you again :D

[mafy13]

gz brang i like yor play create a new movie please:D

[derpadave]

why do you tell people to bind keys to 1, 2,3,4 and z,v, and b, all of those are extremely awkward motions, i prefer E, F, R, C, and then shift and control modifiers with the same keys

[MrTrackBeasts]

@derpadave 1,2,3,4,5 and so on are default keybinds, so they are in no way awkward. He's also showing new people that you can bind spells to different keys. If you know your stuff you can bind things to w/e you want.

[derpadave]

@MrTrackBeasts 6,7,8,9,0,- are default keybinds too. Just because something is standard, does not necessarily mean its comfortable.

[ez2475]

@derpadave its so u dont need to click em and stuff, also its quite comfy once u get used to them. think of it like, playing a arcade game ^.^

[ILUM69]

Hey, when I use the macro and it changed the pic, I can't click the ability.. I for instance..

I use Chimera Shot as nomod and Serpent Sting as Shift:Mod... But I can't use the Serpent sting ability unless I click, keybindings doesn't seem to work.

[Keeper01]

@ILUM69 like the video says, unbind all the default shifts. Your key shift modifier may already be bound to something.

[needstuflol]

@Keeper01 If you can make me a vid i have a 43 mm hunter and would like to learn some more advance things if yo ucan do that for me thanks :)

[HunterM6]

very nice... good job man

[osloshin]

dude.. when i kite an enemy mob with hunter it just runs away from me after some time.

[Ryno332]

is it a addon where when a cool down is done the pic of it shows in the middle?

[ultimentman2]

I wish there was a book for how to set up WoW mods and stuff....It's like a another language to me, even though i'm O.K. in computer programming x.x

[vyrewatch12321]

can you make pvp gear with leatherworking!????????

[vyrewatch12321]

wow nice i use to kite didnt know strafing is faster

[master71452]

5:30 that looks so sick

[jefre117]

serieosly you are amezing at making guide compared to other poeple where they say this is a nice weapon those are nice stats for that class blablabla..:3

[Vally610505]

sorry for double post..

[IIlidanStormrage]

@Vally610505 Triple*

[Vally610505]

Hey Brang i got a little question for you.I think is an addon and i want it's name...When you shot with your bow you let a wave behind the arrow ..just like you shoot with Slow-Motion please tell me the addon name

[Enethil]

Dude, all the Arcane shot shows alot like an addon..If it is an addon, can you please tell me the name of it

[KingBull24]

Great guide, with the funny animations and stuff you got me hooked all the time. Thumbs up

[Mikeydat99]

Wow great guide you touched on pretty much all the basics!!

[bastyl1]

How is that possible that you kite and the 17-rare runs towards you with no limit? Hi should stop in the end of his area and flee away. Wassup?

[skrili]

@bastyl1 that wasent on that time yet now you need to try to slow it and run around it and go back and do it agien

[skrili]

@bastyl1 forgot to add they did this beocuse the world bosses could be kited to city's

[dekured]

@bastyl1 Because he kept damaging it, if you just run from a mob, it'll leash back, but if you keep attacking it, even with a rank one arcane shot, it'll follow you to the ends of the earth

[WorgPups]

love the video a must for any hunter

[madsxcva]

going to do an advanced tactics and stuff ?that would be really cool

[FXDani]

I also have one more short question...disengage/parachute is a macro? can you explain how to build it?

Thank you for all and sorry for mi english :)

I really enjoy your videos!

[IIlidanStormrage]

@FXDani /cast disengage

/use Parachute cloak?

idk

[FXDani]

Hey! I have 2 questions about professions:

People tell me that I have to take 2 "big" professions because hunter damage is very low in pvp and we have to take stats from everithing we can. But I really need to do that? I don't have a lot of time..can I be for example miner/Engineer? you notice the difference without 80 ap more? =(

If yes, Im thinking of be Engineer/alchemist because also you can get infinite potions, in bg it's cool because I think hunters also need some kind of auto healing..

[Muumipeikkoh]

@FXDani alchemist would need herbalist with it, to gather mats for it. go mining/eng =p

[FXDani]

@Muumipeikkoh But mining doesnt give you AP, only 500 HP, I can gather materials with other characters I supose... the cuestion is that every good hunter I see have combinations like jewelry/ Engineering, leatherworking/Engineering etc..

[Muumipeikkoh]

@FXDani the other good hunters, have their other characters to gather the mats to their main char. W/e you decide to do, engineering is for the win.

[Robbie944]

thanks alot mate

[imkilling09]

thx, this helped me alot :P

[cococost]

i willl fallow your ways master lol thnx for the help bro

[RandysTheAbomination]

Brang, i love your videos they have really helped me out in the leveling proccess of my hunter :( all tho is name fails cuz i made it up as an instant momment, i might have to remake him / sigh ...but all is well (: thank you for being a great teacher =D

[luxxiduxxi]

Hi! i just wondering i did a macro

#showtooltip

/cast [nomod] Explosive shot

/castsequence [mod:shift] Black Arrow

is there any way u can make so u dont have to press the shift button and lets say i put that macro on 9 tool bars section and the 9 at the same time and hold down the shift then press 9 and still can shoot or is there anything i have done wrong?

[tommysomthing]

what lvl til u can get bear?

[AmaroTheKing]

@tommysomthing lvl 10-11 in darkshore...

[AmaroTheKing]

I made A and D to my Strafe, but where I bind turn left an turn right. Or can i use mouse?

[twigzarewin]

@AmaroTheKing Hold the right mouse button to turn. Never bind turning with keys.

[ThePaintballmaniac]

Best fuking hunter tutorial on youtube man it discussed everything I had in doubt :) TY VERY MUCH

[BlurryDream]

Wauw, a really helpful tutorial, it left me without any questions. Thank you :-)

[Twistermoneia]

Hey can someone tell me whether I shuld keep thunderstomp and swipe on auto or have them in a macro or just bind seperately? cos I can't seem to keep up with the loss of focus

[AirHogsHelis]

so i should screw my coyote and get a bear ok hehe

[skrili]

@AirHogsHelis stabel it lol

[XvxBERSERKxvX]

The first song in the very beginning is pretty cool, dose anyone know the name to it?

[distordedmediaZ]

pretty good guide, i didnt really learn anything but i have a ton of alts at 70, my hunter used to be my main in TBC and i have 3 80's, so i should be ashamed if i did hehe.

i can imagine this being alot of help, and good tip on the names, its jsut rediculous what some ppl choose. other then that i think ill sub to see the other parts as they come by.

[jre1693yahoo]

When I use the shift modifier and hold down shift it wont let me use the skill after the hold shift

[Barrettsam22]

Hey man, great video, I have an 80 hunter, and I watched this video, and I still learned ALOT!

[Mikester750]

this video was very cool =)

[jre1693yahoo]

I'm trying to do the shift thing but it doesn't work because I can use the first ability but not the second once I hold shift.

[KillswitchForLife]

I like spiders for pvp becaues they SHOOT the web instead of crabs who have to actualy get right on top of u and use there pin...saves u time with the web and guess what? You dont get charged by warriros:) its nice

[chaselipp7]

make more of how to hunter plz!



[drperzik]

wierd, i lvled as mm at lvl60 i went to surv and at 70+ back to mm again xD now i think back at time, i mis my ravager :( Imwithstupid

[Mastermind12358]

1:20, if this is posted 18 oct 2009, and there is "LF DPS for pit of saron", but pit of soron was realised in december xd ?.

[Aderos161]

@Mastermind12358 haha wierd :P

[Benzamir88]

Omg love the beggining!!!

[willemlol7]

second song is nice



[SoulPl]

nice vid brang.

WTH am I doing wrong ...I have a bear and it cannot hold agro to even 1 mob! I had MM so I changed to BM thinking that I make too much dmg with normal shots...but the situation is the same...Making quests is a nightmare! I`m gonna catch a crab and try rooting mobs and kill them with skills....Changing back to MM.

[cirkic]

tbh strafing sucks ass do you see anyting what happens afront of you ( no )

i jump right in time when my auto shoots gets off CD and keep watching afront and still shooting the basterd i play the same like brang his kiting skill

[Erxx152]

where is the lowest level bear for horde?

[macorine987]

@Erxx152 I think they are in the place left of Undercity (can't remember the name), but you tame pets from cross-faction zones it will just be a lot of walking.

[Aklator]

Great guide!

at 7:04- 7:08 it shows u clocking '3' and making 3 different spells show up. I didnt' know u could do that with macros? make the spell at the specific slot change when you cast it. can u please give me more info on the Macros? send me message or something :) thanks!

[malanare]

Can i call my rogue Naruto? jks

[RHCPforever7]

Macorine dude troll is by far and always nd forever be the best horde hunter Orc is okay and belfs are a skilled class and u need to learn how to use ur ape silence when and where but I suggest a troll I kno they're ugly but orcs r to uh Belfs are gay as shit lol

[macorine987]

@RHCPforever7 Yeah I guess, I just don't like the way that the Trolls look until they get some good gear.

[macorine987]

@RHCPforever7 I don't think it makes that much of a difference, Honestly I think an attack power bonus and pet damage is more dps than an increased haste and crit chance(plus only with bows). Orcs also get increased stun resist chance.

[macorine987]

So what hunter looks the best and has the best racials? Between BE and Orc, I think BE looks better but Orc looks pretty good and has good racials. I don't want Tauren or Troll because they make their pets looks too small and they look kind of awkward.

[barrett7212]

@macorine987 Do an orc. they are better than BE and have amazing bow animations.

overall i would pick troll though, highest dps.

[ILUM69]

@barrett7212 and coolest :)

[macorine987]

@barrett7212 Ok thanks, maybe I'll try a Troll but it doesn't seem like it'll be that much better dps.

[macorine987]

@barrett7212 I don't think that it would be much of a difference if there is at all, they get increased crit chance which is ok and just another rapid fire. Orcs pet get 5% more damage plus a little more than 400 attack power with their racial, increased stun resistance.

[macorine987]

@barrett7212 I don't think that it would be much of a difference if there is at all, Trolls get increased crit chance which is ok, and just another rapid fire. Orcs pet get 5% more damage plus a little more than 400 attack power with their racial, and increased stun resistance.

[Wauffle]

Are the macros really that important? They seem like they arnt that useful. Also, i know i sound like a total noob, how do you keybind to Q,E,Z,X etc...Reply plz

[MrTrackBeasts]

@Wauffle lol might wanna go ask that "best" hunter of yours. You know? The troll hunter that starts with the letter K. I'm sure he would give you some answers. Or will he?

[deuxizzz]

Is jump shot the same thing with strafe or not?im using the jumpshot style

[mich7062]

Whats the best tech tree to use if im gonna play dungeons with a group of friends?

[barrett7212]

@mich7062 marksman. then move slowly to survival once you hit the 70s

[mich7062]

@barrett7212 Thx :)

[hampus1234567]

thanks ^^'
