Over the past few weeks I’ve been spending more of my time in battlegrounds and arena on my Rogue, as well as leveling yet another alt – a dirty Warlock. It’s only in the last couple of weeks that I’ve been able to find time for some regular PvP action. One thing I’ve noticed is [...]

With Patch 4.0.6 now live for almost a week there is enough data starting to trickle through to take a look at and see just who benefited the most from the patchy goodness. Now, leading up to the patch, there was a lot of doom and gloom, particularly in the Hunter community, where the Survival [...]

My recent post on choosing the ‘best’ race for the Hunter class caused me to reflect on my decisions. For min/max’ing there’s little doubt that the 1% increased chance to critically hit makes the Worgen the number one choice for Alliance Hunters.

One of the most common questions that you’ll hear asked by Marksmanship (MM) Hunters – as well as Warriors, Rogues and Kitty Druids – is “when should I start to gem for armor penetration?” The simple answer is, as soon as you can reach the hard or soft cap through gems, enchants and food. The [...]

With the Wrath of the Lich King nearing the end of its life cycle I’m finding myself increasingly bored with running the same heroic dungeons for emblems on my main and alts. I’ve reached the point where my main just doesn’t ‘need’ the frost emblems to the extent he did four or five months ago, [...]

Looking up some of the loot for Ruby Sanctum, which has now popped up on wowhead, the hunter in me is a little sad. Due to the size of my guild I’m probably only going to get into the 10 man version of the raid, unless I’m brave enough to PUG the 25 man version. [...]
