Feel free to stop derailing this thread with your nonsense.
the thread was derailed a long time ago with hunters who think scorpion pets were balanced, âlets keep it on topic guysâ - guy who flames everyone who disagrees with him or occasionally calls you baby cakes

Says guy who made one on topic post and spent the rest attacking me. Awful troll is awful.
thatâs not correct though is it? you responded to me and said i was bad, then i found out you were
Seriously, stop talking.
yawn, Iâm done with this kid.
this is the first time either of us flamed eachother in this thread, the previous messages were related to a hunter vs druid duel, you brought on the flaming and the trolling, u are just worse at it than i am, now ur crying that iâm âtrollingâ and âderailingâ
as soon as you called me bad i went to look at your logs and found out you canât play the game at all, and here we are
âseriously stop talkingâ
lmao seriously 
You did not read my post attentively. I explained why not hunters in general, but specifically hunter pets require close to zero skill, because they function even while being afk. My other point was, that once bestial wrath is available, the counterplay against pet damage is limited/non existant and thus can be seen as problematic. I know that hunters have limited tools, but that does not change the facts I mentioned.
If I auto attack on a melee dps, is that not the same? They could go afk as well.
Itâs a dps cooldown. If you want to counter it you should use a defensive cool down.

Since you dont seem to understand what I mean, I got to explain. Auto attack has to be manually activated and the player has to position himself and follow the target to execute damage. On the other side, a hunterpet can automatically attack, position itself, follow the target and use its abilites while the hunter is away from keyboard. While autoattack indeed does not require players to be at the keyboard, it is useless against moving targets, if the player is not navigating actively.
While that is correct, it is also correct, that the tools against the pet are limited. You cant kite it, you cant cc it. You can use defensives, but most wont last as long as bestial wraths 18 second duration and anything effective will have long cooldowns and/or downsides. Additionally, not every class has defensive cooldowns to deal with an enraged pet. There is no other dps cooldown with less counterplay in that sense.
The game isnât balanced around 1v1 encounters friend.
As for the rest of your post, blah blah blah you donât like it so it has be to nerfed because youâll keep moving the goal posts no matter what is said until you get your childish way.
Ok, I wont reply further. I tried to explain, but you do not bother reading it. I have not once said that pets are unbalanced or that they should be nerfed. All I stated what is problematic about hunter pets in general and why their are considered toxic. In a sense, why this thread exists. You are either a troll or ignorant in a way, that you are unable or unwilling to follow simple explanations. In both cases, it seems unnecessary trying to explain things to you any further. Have a great Christmas though.
Absolutely, 100%, not true.
Not in the game yet, and when it is, everyone else will also have their kit, much more health and armor, which will severely reduce its overall effectiveness. You cannot use this as an argument for a 25 cap when no one is able to use it.
The whole situation for hunters is just so bad and boring. We could have gotten an actual new playstyle, instead its just more of the same pet gimmick. Hunter not even being a class and just being a pets sidekick for this entire phase has turned SoD from exciting to just meh. Its just the same few strong things, only stronger + a few tanks.
Im sure hunter pet wonât be even more meta/busted/mandatory when they have bestial wrath, deal 50% more damage, and canât be stopped. How riveting and different than before /s
Absolutely wild that hunter pets are ruining PvP and the game not only for all the other classes, but also themselves bc they are pigeonhold into 1 build where their strongest and most meaninful ability is /petattack
We didnât even get new pets. Itâs the same 20 year old pet meta. Scorpid poison is awful now. Whoever is behind the hunter design is a fool. They had the easiest set of options to make of all classes.
- In combat traps
- Give the hunter spell power based on their ranged attack power
- Give hunters an ability to create space / escape cc
- Give hunters some kind of defensive CD
- Make unused pets viable
Chimera and explosive arenât bad ideas, but they shouldnât be on the same slot. Chimera shouldâve been a silence when used with viper. Lone wolf is a complete downgrade in every way, and thatâs not even when compared to Lion. The leg runes are useless. 6 seconds of standing still means zero up time on sniper training. No one wants melee hunter, itâs the least played build in retail. Kill command shouldâve been an active ability to deal damage, rather than a cooldown that is now useless. The only reason we have a BM meta is because they completely killed the MM runes.
Itâs going to be really difficult for them to turn it around in phase 2.

Even if Chimera Shot gave you mana while using it instead of costing mana it would be miles worse than Beast Masery gloves from a pure DPS number perspective. The +80% focus regen rate on pets alone might be better than Chimera Shot and add an extra 30% DMG to pets on the rune as well and itâs not even close.
Also, basically every rune is doing more dmg than classes core abilities. Saber Slash > Sinister Strike, Starsurge > every balance ability, Quick Hit > every warrior ability, Incinerate/Chaos Bolt > all lock abilities, etc. Itâs just how this season has been designed.

No, that is not the problem. You canât say hunters are over powered because someone does not have consumables.
