Blizz is leaning into bombs (and now molotov cocktails) even harder for survival in Midnight. Why would a melee spec be using bombs and molotov cocktails right where they’re standing? It’s incredibly stupid conceptually.
What the hell does a molotov cocktail have to do with a hunter, ranger, etc? Why would a HUNTER use bombs at ALL, even outside of melee? There would be no meat or trophy left to collect. If this makes sense for any melee at all it would probably be rogue not a hunter.
The rexxar fantasy is right there for them to lean into and is what people actually want. They could create an entire new class that uses bombs, gadgets, etc instead of shoehorning it in on hunters.
Yes? You arent throwing it at your face though, you’re throwing it at the target. What’s your point?
Well, WoW’s definition (read: a blurb for the class" is
From an early age, the call of the wild draws some adventurers from the comfort of their homes into the unforgiving primal world outside. Those who endure become hunters. Masters of their environment, they are able to slip like ghosts through the trees and lay traps in the paths of their enemies.
and then you look at the spec itself, and you read this
An adaptive ranger who favors using explosives, animal venom, and coordinated attacks with their bonded beast.
So nothing I read says anything about being a primitive that refuses to use technology that also exclusively fits game beasts
Try drinking copious amount of alcohol in order to purify your body and/or grant yourself resistance to physical damage? While it might help you believe those effects would follow, they almost certainly won’t.
Or per solely similar high-fantasy, try dropping an hammer made of constrained photons and god/karma/Force™-magic on an enemy 2 feet away from you with the explicit intention to have it explode and… see how that goes for you?
I haven’t played survival in a long time so throwing bombs and all that I’m not very familiar with or good at.
However I would like it that survival would have a pet/s summoned to grab the crotch legs or arms of the enemy player, that forces them to trip and lay on the ground whilst I harpoon in and whack them with my two handed swords. Doing super saiyan damage.
I’d rather have something like this than throwing bombs.
You know how hunters in the bush hunts game, and they use dogs to pin down boars and they come in with their knife to finish the boar ? That would be awesome
Watching YouTube videos on SV bombing and coming in to just swing twice and jumping out again doesn’t look cool.
Imagine being able to wing clip several times in a row to have a chance to clip the enemy so bad that he/she actually becomes more vulnerable to be seriously injured by raptor strike crits?
It puts the hunter in a vulnerable position if facing a warrior during that time, however it’ll be rewarding if it gets pulled off successfully.
I just wish the SV would concentrate a lot more in dual wielding hack and slash. But then again, I guess that is only for Fury warriors to master
They have to add a tinker class so they can take all the bomb and fire away from hunter and give us a proper theme around poisons, traps etc. They removed Explosive Shot from MM because of ‘‘we feel that it’s healthier for the spec as a whole to distance itself from Explosive Shot and instead focus on the more fantasy-forward spells like Volley and Kill Shot’’ Hopefully the fantasy of Explosive Shots and bombs go to Tinker
They need to move SV to some other class.
A hunter wouldnt use bombs lmao…a fisherman…sure…stuns the fish, they float to the top, you get a good haul…illegal as all hades, but works.
A bomb against hunted prey?
And they tell me an AR15 will blow all the usable meat all over the countryside lmao
Jesus blizzard…WHO comes up with this inane stuff? lol
see my post above…bombs do not belong on a HUNTER class at all. lol.
youre a HUNTER…the idea is to HUNT stuff to EAT…not blow it all over hades and back lmao
fishing…sure…stuns the fish, they float to the top, you grab them and eat.
