??? Who are you?
Your two button rotation doesn’t deserve to compete with actual classes. Get nerfed.

Yes Era is over there and melee hunters are gonna get nerfed out of existence. Now what? 
no offense but im not going to take a dwarf hunter who gets farmed by a poison class and dies to a disease enough to make topics on the forums about it seriously.
im a hunter main and have very high xp on hunts in arena. you dont kno what u talkin bout lil homie you’ve alrdy been outed for being a 1550 player. so stop arguing w ppl about pvp. your xp speaks for itself.
??? you quoted me first you silly fkn drongo.
edit: oh you actually couldnt associate my names. lilcherry:cherrycreek.
Are y’all serious?
After announcing MORE buffs for the most broken classes in the game you decided you forgot to buff hunters……?? Of all classes? Not like any of the classes you have been neglecting the entire time?
Donkey brain. Caught sockpuppetting.
lolwut drugs are you on?
You told Gal and I to go play warr, then we posted with our warriors.
get rekt dingbat. Go over to the warrior forums
new =/= better 
thats not what was said, nor implied. @ Argentia
lol scrambling.
Fluent in logical fallacies. I wish i was you. :^)
Ask any melee class if they think they should do more damage? What are you smoking? “Nah man, I play melee and I think I should do less damage”. 
One of the main reasons ranged are performing so poorly compared to melee at the moment is because melee can just sit in melee rolling their face on the keyboard while ranged have to deal with the majority of mechanics, constantly moving.
Being melee at the moment is playing the game with cheat codes enabled.
What this means is they will try to bring ranged up to the diminished melee spec. So in the end hunters as a whole lose. They don’t want to improve you, they want to normalize you into being mediocre.

No offence, but ranged hunters were already doing quite well compared to everyone but their melee counter part and the other outliers (Rogue, Warrior, Enhance Sham).
They didn’t need a buff, Munter just needed a nerf.
Meanwhile the 10% increase to spriest and balance didn’t even come close to bringing those specs in line with ranged hunter pre buff.
The only people losing out once again is the casters who were already falling behind (something you had already admitted with the SoM buff) and now you once again create more of a gap.
So why are you buffing a spec that is already 14% (after the 10% buff) above the specs you are meant to be bringing up?
Especially when that gap only increases as you look at more competitive brackets. ~18% at 90th percentile.
Obviously this is only early so we have a limited sample size (around 20k parses), however this tracks exactly how you would expect from the buffs, and since there has been no mechanical change for boomie/spriest the expectation is that if anything does change, it will be in relation to ranged hunter as builds optimise the new mechanical changes and players become more familiar with it.
Edit- considering the top ranged hunter parse has already been beaten by over 11% it looks like you guys gave a larger buff to the 6th best performing spec/role than you did to the 11th, 12th, and 13th worst performing specs …
Huh? Im sorry i dont understand your point.
I disagree, there were plenty of mechanics for melee to avoid in Gnomer. Even in ST.
Honestly I think the changes were meant for next week.
I assume casters in general are also getting buffs as they stated in a post that warlocks and mages also needed further tuning. While I agree casters are far too behind mele I would also argue that with the incoming changes to PVP and with the raid still putting up a challenge for casual players, outright buffing casters and ranged is preferable to nerfing mele.
If not outright buffs to casters, I would say up the armor on all the bosses in ST, not to Gnomer levels, but between default and that.
they look like big buffs but they really are not, 2 sets come at the expense of eachother so its not like a hunter can utilize more than 2 or 3 of the changes tops at the same time. does give more situational dmage i suppose. but changing 3 -4 runes before each different type of pull isnt my idea of fun either. its a start, but i dont see it bringing us up alot. chimera and sniper training look to be the best on single target.
What kind of a take is that?
They just buffed the 6th best performing spec instead of just nerfing Munter.
The top overall parse has already been beat by over 11%. They got a larger buff than the 3 worst dps specs in the game.
“Hunters as a whole lose” sorry you can’t be blatantly OP pressing 2 buttons anymore and will have to settle with only being slightly OP…
Just a rerun of P2, nerfed from best class by a mile to competitively 2nd best and the sky is apparently falling.
The top ranged hunter parse has already been beat by over 11% and it’s only early, so take with that what you will.
