Classic hunter pvp is dead with feign bug

I play an LVL60 hunter in classic . There is a big bug for the hunter. That is feigned bug. U can not leave combat in immediately after u use feign.U can not use feign+trip combo without CC, like Scattershot, which means is impossible to leave combat if someone keeps attack u in 5 yards. What a devastating blow for hunter PVP. I hope that is a bug and will be fixed.

There are already several active topics on this forum where this subject has been brought up for discussion/awareness.

But Blizzard still not say anything about that.

You mean regarding the Feign Death-bug?

True.

But the most likely outcome is that it will get hotfixed eventually. If they deem it justified to do so.

And I also agree that any bugs currently present in Classic that weren’t a thing in Vanilla. Should be fixed, going forward.

Having said that, is it likely that they will respond to this on the forums? I would say no. They’ll probably add it to the summary of hotfixes going out when it’s time.


Now I admit that I would love for them to respond a bit more on the forums as well.

As one of my top interests in terms of forum discussions, is the topic of bringing back the old ranged SV spec we had up until it got changed into melee in Legion. To get it back as a 4th spec for the class, in order to preserve other spec identities that we have already. Etc.
I would love to get a response showing where their heads at on the topic.
But I very much doubt that it will happen.

If it happens, it will be at a time when they got something ‘‘ready for display’’ as well.

I’ve definitely seen vanilla videos of hunters feign death trapping so Yea it does sound like a bug and a pretty devastating one at that…

This is not a bug. This is how it was intended to be in Vanilla. This change did not go live until the BC patch if i’m remembering correctly. Might even be later then that.

Y’all are both wrong, here have a 1.12 video showing how it’s supposed to work. Hunter casts feign at 4:05 or 4:06, instantly drops combat with no animation. It even pops up a -Combat so you can be sure.

No… it’s bugged. feign death instantly drops you out of combat if not resisted.
and players can NOT resist it. so it’s bugged.

She did leave combat after feign. Because she uses 2 keys instead of macros, make she looks like not leave combat immediately.

this is classic wow hunter no changes.

This montage goes so hard.

Bad mechanics. You have to consume feign death just to trap? Really? No wonder my Warrior in Vanilla was never been intimidated by a Hunter. I saw them as free kill when on 1v1. High rank hunters rather avoid me than engage me.

In BC on the other hand, I was amazed with Hunters. They have top damage and they excel in PvP BGs… with no LOL trap mechanics of Vanilla.

I legit just FD +Trapped a skull rogue on me earlier today.

Warriors are easily kited. You get 1 gap closer on a 30 sec cd in combat. Hunters have multiple ways to keep you away. Figure the rest out

It’s easy on paper. I wouldnt became rank 10 for nothing with my Warrior. Pass rank 10, you would need a group. I was invited to such group but I pass becoz I rather do AQ40 and Naxx40 than BGs. They made it to Grand Marshall. There was a rank 13 Hunter on the Horde. He acknowledged when I switch to Horde alt to talk to him… that he got killed many times from me.

A skilled warrior knows STANCE DANCING. Piercing Howl and Hamstring are 2 slowing abilities. Gap closer is indeed 30 sec with Intercept. Even if I was wing clip’d, the hunter cant get away from the deadzone becoz he would always be in Hamstring’d /Piercing Howl’d. My Intercept (with a stun) followed by Intimidating Shout (Fear) always work against them. They dont have aspect of the turtle… they lose half hp right away from there.

Warriors are on top of the foodchain in PvP in Vanilla. There are few classes that annoys us but not Hunters.

Getting rank 10+ requires nothing but time, not skill. Warriors are the single moat kited class in wow vanilla period amd without a healer thr weakest 1v1. If i start at range i win cos i dont let you close enough to intercept (25 yard range) if you charge me i instantly FD+Trap OR scatter shot and get distance then my traps are on a lower cd than your intercept. Slows dont make a diff unless i have no cd’s at all

Pls tell me more

If that were true, then FD will take you out of combat, even in PvP.

Do you know my intercept(stun)-hamstring is almost instant? Since you’re stunned with intercept, you received 1x Heroic Strike that depletes lots of your hp with bonus hamstring? So even if you FD trap me, you wont go that far coz you’re hamstring’d. You have no backward disengage of the Retail Hunter. While you’re on a deadzone, nothing you can do… raptor strike me? LOL… with pleasure.

And if I used Intercept-(Stun)- Hamstring - Intimidating Shout, nothing you could do but pray that you wont die.

If we start with you on range, do you know that I would start with shield-sword then swap’d it when I get to melee. I will tell you I have lots of tricks.

You wouldnt get into melee if i atart at range. I set a trap pre combat and just rotate around it for when you intercept. So not onlt do you waste an intercept but now are you at the mercy od my bow attacks from range while you hobble around waiting for another intercept.

Warriors are food for me
