It is a problem… I even main a hunter and I hate this. There are some cool things you could do if you weren’t forced into the pet runes and aspect of the lion.

Yea, hunter pets are a problem.

While I agree that they scuffed all other avenues of play and pigeon holed us into 1 spec. Hunter’s aren’t some almighty god character that can’t be dealt with. The issue is average players don’t know how to CC / slow / focus pets.

Also SoD is very bursty in general, most runes give more damage but few give extra survivability.

Hunters and locks are over tuned atm

Esp in WSG as the global 25% damage reduction in instanced PvP does not apply to pets, while it applies to all player skills

Just found out Recasting Eye of the beast now breaks CC, outside stormwind on my hunter testing it out with a rogue helping me see what we can break.

I agree the 25% damage reduction should be across the board. But Hunter’s aren’t over tuned. Other classes can pump out as much damage and most classes have better survivability than Hunters do.

Interesting, that’s a 2s cast though. But yeah useful if you can get it off.

Also if you use dive before letting EoTB drop it moves at crazy speeds back to you.

Perhaps, they are top PvE and PvP dps right now by a decent margin, which eludes to overtuning

We’ll see what happens at 40 since class balance will be shifted again

They’re not top dps.

Yet they literally are for December 2023 all player logs and 90% logs

That’s 90 percentile

This is 80 percentile

Your stats must include before the nerfs.

And even in your stats they are literally tied 1st, so where is this margin you speak of?

These stats are set for only the last day, or two weeks at max.

Adjust the link to 2 weeks here and hunter normalizes to 2nd dps within 99% of rogue damage.

The link i shared reviews 4 weeks of logs.

Both confirm hunter is top PvE or 2nd within 99% damage of first.

Along with being top PvP

Why not link this

need to add : wouldnt let me link otherwise

Thats after nerf sample along with the avg player base. The top 10% of players are not the ones complaining the 50% are. I understand that people with a brain can counter play but people have to take a step back for even a second and look at the trends that are happening in logs.

imagine being so bad at pvp you get soloed by and lose to an npc pet. op is literally a priest with instant fear. guy is probably using penance offensively…

not to mention that HUNTERS ARE LITERALLLY A PRIESTS FREE FOOD. No other class is easier to kill for a priest. Literally just dot the hunter and laugh while he cant kill you.

The margin between rogue and hunter is pretty tight on both, the margin i speak of the is overall population average for hunters being higher than other classes

How can pvp dps even be evaluated? I’m not familiar with this site you’re using.
