How can I counter that in 3s as a Hunter? I tried covering my trap by pre-casting Hunter’s Mark on the target before trap, but the imp seems to dispel the last magic ability? I tried throwing the trap then Hunter’s Mark, but they usually dispel instantly.
Trying to root the imp out of los with the healer then trap the healer seems to be a rare occurrence and requires a lot of time/positioning work.
I play Jungle cleave. How can I get a trap on the healer vs Lock playing imp?
just scatter an half trap there isnt a lot you can do to counter pets dispeling. if you truely wanted to trap you can scatter imp but soon as it comes out it can dispel. so its prob better to just use scatter, same reason i dont full trap vs dh.
What’s the pointing in half trapping if the imp will always get it though?
Feral needs to root on top of your traps, you have to coordinate it
Imp doesn’t dispel last magic effect added as far as I’m aware. I could be wrong though. However, the only way to increase your odds of sticking the trap is to have the feral toss a root onto the target with a hunter’s mark for a 1 in 3.
Yeah, kinda tried that but it was Lock/Warr/Hpal so the pally freedom’ed himself. Other time I went for Mark/Trap and imp always got the trap. Almost feels unwinnable considering I still need to cc warr on our go so I don’t get stopped and he doesn’t intervene.
Not sure how to win really
Diamond ice.
Kill the pet.
CC the pet.
love facing hunters on my lock cuz of imp lol. Seems like a pretty hard counter
What is that?
SV pvp talent.
You can just scatter the pet and trap your target. Lots of locks will just try to dispel once, then not attempt again. That said, imp’s have very low health and you can really punish the lock by dropping them. I would probably just have your feral stun for trap and scatter the imp. Getting clones off might be more of a pain, but that’s a possibility as well.
It’s a surv talent, makes trap 5s and unbreakable
I mean you just gotta roll the dice. It really sucks, but it’s the way it is. Warriors and warlocks are naturally going to both be annoying to deal with as a hunter.
As far the freedom goes, you need to either the priest you are playing with (if you are that is) purge the freedom pre-go or try to purge the freedom yourself.
Most locks (at least affliction) are going to have thier imp sacced, so you cant cross CC the imp.
Not sure how you are having issues with warlocks as a hunter though. Just feign the dots off on CD and it sets them so insanely behind. After warrior easily the hardest class for me to deal with.
If you’re playing jungle you can stun, root, mark trap. That’s a 33% chance to dispel trap.
You can also trap, mark for 50% and stun lock since they will be saccing the imp.
If they don’t sac Imp, literally kill it in two seconds and force them to fel dom it then kill it again.
Non of the locks I played against at 2500 had their imp sacced.
Warlock Warr is actually hard for a setup comp like jungle for the reasons I mentioned.
can’t you mix up the cc? going for trap on a dps and clone for healer?
if the guy doesn’t have party 1-3 imp dispel he’s gonna bite his nails
Have feral spam clones to punish imp, stack root and hm so you can pray, worst case scenario you can rely on scatter trap goes too
Not sure what you mean by that, how is the imp getting punished by clone spam?
Edit: oh you mean because the lock has no counter spell?
It only dispels one debuff iirc so hunters mark the trap? go for rng
Yea lock has no CS so your feral can set up way more w/ clones
