In full bis gear I just do more damage than they heal and then they die.
Whether they add a Mortal Strike for Hunters would have to be in phase 4 or 5. But that would help since their drain life helps offset some incoming damage. For now though, moving out of range is what is the best route.
a hunter that can kite me can kill me, a hunter that lets me get toe to toe with them is going to die.
you are right about it being unfinished…i mean for real we won’t be max level until phase 4 and even then we don’t know what new things might be added in the phases after that.
What you’re looking at is not the final class balance and it isn’t even intended to be the final class balance
Have you tried to send snek to attack them?
You have the longest range in the game and can cast while moving. Try that.
Drain life is usually a dot if they have the rune. So you can’t kick it.
yea, I broke the drain channel and it started again like 3 seconds later
just give me a real aimed shot and I do the rest lol
also, give disengage some utility. everyone has a gap closer ability, or kinda, but hunters?
for melee it would be specially needed, and for hunters to use LWolf without a pet too…
its just silly, that trap rune is almost a waste tbh… and the explosive? no words
As a non meta lock in pvp killing Meta locks is pretty easy.
I think the tricky thing with melee hunters is that y’all still do good damage ranged so, gap closer might just be concussion shot, wing clip, and traps. Maybe give mongoose bite like a 5 meter lunge? Idk
The game is cancer
They have rigged the game so hunters can literally solo 3 players at once
This is because blizzard employees use the hunters to run bots
This is why they refuse to balance the game!!! This is why they refuse to remove bots
This is why they refuse to listen to the people FOR YEARS
Scissors players when faced with rock
Hunter beats meta lock 1v1. Stay out of range of their 20yard drain life. And easy win
put drain life on the pet
most hunters suck at pet management and won’t pull the pet away
Stand more than 25 yards away from them and they can’t drain life you. They do nothing otherwise.
Drain life has a 20 yd range and will go off the target if you get out of range. Warlocks have the worst mobility in the game, and any warlock who is playing pvp in meta (lol) is gimping themself when they should be using haunt.
You’re a hunter, just aspect of the cheetah, slow them, and blast them at a >30 yd range.
The only thing that beats a matamorph warlock is a non meta morph warlock, a mage, eleshamman, or a boomy if they got the range at the start. You found the one thing you cant beat rolling your face across the kb. Rock, paper, scizors.
Curse of exhaustion?
Doesn’t exist at 25. Deepest into affliction you can go is 1/2 grim reach or 1/2 nightfall.
Beyond 25 even with max grim reach, you still only cap out at 36 yards to the hunter’s 41… and if you’re using CoEx you’re absolutely in range for concussion shot and/or the hunter can throw down an entrapment proccing frost trap in combat in SoD, which there’s zero chance of being able to run directly through without FAP.
So the lock is now within range to cast, maybe even a best case scenario within range to put a master channeler drain life up… Conc shot into frost trap and run away to break the range on drain life, while chunking into the warlock… Affliction doesn’t really have nukes… and with CoEx instead of Agony, he’s missing a good chunk of his potential damage, His damage is all backloaded while the hunter’s is all frontloaded… The hunter should still win that, though he may die to dots after the fact.
A hunter hitting something for next to nothing
LOL
Drain life on pet and send your succ to seduce. Lvl 25 bracket is meaningless now. Hunters are a garbage class
