All I see and hear from hunters is wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Stop crying, we are capped at level 25 and nothing is final. They will be making constant adjustments all the way to 60 as new runes get added and new builds get tested. You could end up being top dps come 60, instead of stressing about being OP at level 25, just play the class that is fun. Welcome to what hybrids have dealt with for over a decade. Want to play Ele shaman? Guess what you suck in PvE, balance druid? Yea you suck to. Guess what though, WE STILL PLAYED THEM, because WE ENJOY THE CLASS. Dorito eating sweat lords need to chill out

If people don’t leave feedback how will things get adjusted? Especially when they don’t seem to realize that flanking strike is bugged.
You do also realize that you can mute threads right?

There is a large difference between feed back and crying. 99% of the threads are crying, not offering feed back

Well then mute them instead of crying about people crying.

Feedback is definitely welcomed. Without it we might not have gotten Chaos Bolt. But most of the posts right now are people complaining that their class that was performing exponentially higher than everyone else was adjusted and is still one of the highest dps at 25.
They aren’t upset that hunter was nerfed, they’re upset that they can’t roll everything and had to go from ezmode down to slightly less ezmode.

I haven’t seen much of that. Just people saying it was nerfed too much. Only saw one that stated it shouldn’t be nerfed at all. And a bunch of people assuming those that say it was nerfed too much didn’t want any nerfs.

We should get free game time…
Hunters, stop playing the game
This is on you
Game ruined one nerf. That’s all it took.
Hunters nerfed into oblivion.
Now, that’s a lot of hyperbole to me. Nerfed into oblivion? Just nerfed back down to the pack with everyone else.

In context of a lot of those posts, it’s the runes being nerfed to uselessness that is the problem, not the overall damage since damage is still fine. There just isn’t a reason to play the class much differently than regular Vanilla Classic. They could have done the adjustments better.
And one of those threads is what I was talking about and I have that person on ignore. Mute and ignore work wonders.

Its weird how you would come to the conclusion that somehow hunter = warrior. Warrior did twice the damage of every class for years in classic and that remained unchanged.
Most sane people understand that explosive shot needed to be toned down, the chimera shot nerf was unnecessary and now pretty much all of your damage comes from your pet and the rotation is the exact same thing it was in classic. Its like someone steals a candy bar and you cut their hand off.

Hunter will be a STAT STICK CLASS at 60
When have they ever listened to hunter feedback…can’t remember.
I just think right now it seems like they aren’t listening since there were nerfs. No telling how much they intend to adjust and add to at 40/50/60.

Explosive shot isn’t still op. But Hunter is still top DPS and that is based on melee and ranged weaving. Explosive shot was an outlier but they also didn’t look at how the whole kit works together or doesn’t. Because it’s pretty awkward rotation wise. It’s laborous to get flanking strike procs (which might have also been nerfed).
But nerfing runes into the ground becomes a problem when the season is about the runes.
Bring overall damage down. Do nerfs in smaller numbers until they are in line. Uncouple abilities that share cooldown but have nothing to do with each other.
There are some legit complaints in there. It’s just people see people upset about nerfs on the top performing class and don’t look at the context.
The problem is what nerfing runes alone to non-use does overall to create any different feel than regular Classic and that this didn’t solve the real issues. Hunter will still be top dps, until Warriors scale as they always do. This is the way.

This no point in playing hunter in SoD and the class will be a STAT STICK at higher levels due to poor scaling they already have a rune in place for it

Ive seen more posts with people telling hunters to hush and suck it up. Than I have seen Hunters complaining.

Are you expecting anyone who plays any class to shout for pure joy when they receive a major nerf?
Literally have ZERO sympathy. Been playing druid since 2004, played Balance through classic 2019 and half of SoM. Raided all the way into Naxx as balance and not once did I cry and moan about how lack luster they were. I ran every single consumable and WB just to be half way viable and still end up towards the bottom of the DPS meter. People need to stop worrying about what some silly meter says and play the class that fits the fantasy role they want to play. There are plenty of options
People only want to not have to play bm and auto shot because we are oom after 25 seconds. People enjoyed the playstyle, something different than normal classic hunter. Chim shot was overnerfed and costs way to much mana to use for a 85% weapon damage.
