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.

Today I thought I’d touch on a semi-controversial topic, the use of Rowan’s Rifle of Silver Bullets by Hunters. Let’s get something straight, Rowan’s Rifle is in no way itemised for Hunters. It carries strength, parry and dodge. Rowan’s Rifle is clearly a ‘stat stick’ for Warrior tanks. A Hunter should never be rolling against [...]

So you’re a hunter that has hit 80 and you’re looking to gear up as fast as possible without setting foot in side of a raid. What do you do? Simple. Run the ICC 5 mans on normal and heroic modes until you’re decked out in the finest iLvl 232 gear you’ll find — outside [...]

Over on the official Blizzard World of Warcraft forum there’s a new ‘blue’ post previewing some of the changes to the hunter class come the time of Cataclysm. It will be interesting to see how many of the previewed changes will make the final transition to Cataclysm when it finally drops. So here are the [...]
