For the love of god Blizz., pls make Aspect of the lion a book that buffs everyone 10% and give us Hunters a choice to use it as a rune for 10% more for us. That way if we want to use Lone wolf we actually can. As of now Aspect of the Lion is the only viable Chest rune.
I might actually want to go ranged if I could go lone wolf.
They’ve deliberately made it mandatory to use. It’s not an accident.
I suppose another way they could implement such a change, and more inline with Blizzard-style would be that they could just remove the self buff portion of Aspect of the Lion.
You havent heard? Blizz devs hate hunters. Hence why Ret pallies and Warriors scale better with Agility than even hunters.
You have to make a choice. This is an RPG.
so its true 59 agi for hunter = 1% crit chance and 20 agi for warrior/paladin = 1% crit chance? if so, that seems DUMB… agi should be the same for all classes…
Having lion as a book spell and the additional 10% on a rune is the most elegant way to fix it. No need to implement a new rune.
if this was the case, we wouldnt be able to have hawk up. You can only have viper (book) or hawk up. I would expect the same thing with lion/hawk/viper to share the same buff slot
All the bear tanks and Shamans looking over here at the Hunter having to make a choice that sacrifices personal DPS for the good of the group.
“Uh huh.”
? No, just keep it as an aura.
It makes lone wolf builds playable and doesn’t change anything to the best build (melee BM), it’s literally the perfect fix.
Nah hunters have to sacrifice a whole playstyle. It’s not about dps.
Oh really? What playstyle is incompatible with 20% Stats?
Yah ret pallies and warriors can have the same amount or even more crit with half the agi compared to hunters yet hunters benefit practically nothing off strength. Its absurd.
The choice between using Aspect of the Lion or any other Chest rune, is essentially “Do you choose to be good or choose to be bad?”
Would you like +4% Melee Crit and 200 RAP for the group, including yourself? (Grace of Air) or would you like to give Warriors and Rogues an extra attack with nothing for yourself? (Windfury)
Guess which one we’re going to be running…
Sorry, this is all in Orcish. Can someone translate it into Alliance Common?

Except you can’t really make a choice when the entire raid is going to get mad at you for not taking the “buff the raid” rune.
OP’s suggestion is valid and viable.
Same w/ sniper training. Making the buff linger for a few seconds after movement would be nice and wouldn’t break PvP
