“Hunter problems and predictions
May 19th, 2008 by wowhunterzone“In the wake of the recent confusion regarding Scare Beast, once again some hunters have gotten to complaining a lot about the state of their class. While on one hand, there are certainly problematic issues hunters are having, it’s really not fair to say that the class is broken. It isn’t — being a hunter is more fun than its ever been, and it looks like this class will only get better in the future. Nonetheless, looking at the problems we do have might give us a clearer sense of where we’re going in the future. With more and more information coming out about Wrath of the Lich King, and especially since Blizzard started asking for feedback from hunters, it’s worthwhile to have a look at what holes do exist for our class, and how future changes might seek to plug them up. Mana Hunters don’t like running out of mana in the middle of a fight, but other mana users don’t like that either. Are hunters entitled to something like rage or energy as physical damage dealers like warriors and rogues, or are we just being picky. Since we aren’t really wizards of any sort, does our use of mana cause more problems than it solves. One thing to keep in mind is that intellect helps out casters a lot by providing spell crit in addition to mana pool, whereas for hunters it only provides a larger mana pool, often at the expense of physical crit. My wild brainstorming mind imagines: what if hunters had a “”focus pool”" much like mana, except that it was determined by agility rather than intellect. This way, it would let us focus in on fewer important stats which benefit us in more ways than one. On the other hand, perhaps having to juggle more stats than usual is one of the things that makes choosing hunter gear a more interesting task. This is a big problem on lots of hunters’ minds — but what’s Blizzard going to do about it.
It’s been a problem since the very beginning, and so far Blizzard’s main answer has been Aspect of the Viper. Whether that is enough or not remains to be proven. Wrath of the Lich King may bring more mana-regenerating abilities, but personally I would prefer an overhaul of the mana system, and a replacement with something more hunter-like. Call it focus or energy, pizzazz or chutzpah; it doesn’t matter to me, but make it feel more like something a hunter would use, not a magician. Pet training The idea behind learning new pet skills out in the wild and then gradually teaching them to your pet is a great one on the surface. wow gold The first time you’re leveling a hunter it can even be quite interesting to go hunt down the pet skills you can get as they become available. But once its novelty wears off, it becomes a mere chore, especially if you’re leveling a hunter for the second time, your heart yearns for something more efficient. To make things worse, the current system requires that you always keep one space available in your stable for switching out with various throwaway pets, tamed only for the abilities they have to offer your regular animal companions. From an endgame perspective, when people like to have maximum versatility for various situations, the current implementation lacks in elegance as well as efficiency. We will probably see Blizzard introduce some solution intended to simplify this at some point. wow gold If they do it right, they’ll likely use a reductionist method to just try and blend it in with other elements of the game. If not, I fear they might try to introduce some entirely new mechanic that just shifts the problem around without actually solving it. We’ll have to wait and see. ” “Hey, fellow rogues! It’s been a while! Well, more like nearly two months.
wow power leveling Sorry. But we’re back with some fresh ideas, one of which is this: how can you roleplay as a rogue without seeming like a cliche. Admittedly, I’m new to RP, and my RP character is a draenei priest — about as far from my beloved troll rogue as one can get. mp3 players So this article is geared to people who, like me, are new to RP. The more experienced RPers can correct all my horrifying, glaring errors in the comments. So, let’s start out with: Picking a race Each race has different rogue traditions, heroes, and senses of morality. Here’s a quick overview: Humans control several rogue organizations: the Ravenholdt guild, their archrival Syndicate organization, and SI:7, the official intelligence agency of Stormwind. wow gold If you’re interested in “”joining”" any of these organizations (or the vaguely rogue-ish Defias Brotherhood), human would be a good choice. Night elf rogues would seem to have some difficulty fitting in with their peaceful, nature-loving society. However, night elves have skills at stealth, and every society needs its enforcers. wow gold The night elf police force, known as the Wardens, always has room for a good rogue — and the archdruid Fandral Staghelm might not be above employing some sneaky folk to advance his political goals.RELATED LINKS:
