Yea, must be a blizz dev playing a hunter.
Kinda absurd getting hit for 90k to 150k for each rapid fire shot that hits me.
If the class is going to do this much damage, it needs to be a turret build that can’t move while shooting.
I honestly don’t see many tradeoffs in “battlegrounds” for the amount of damage they pump. And with solo shuffle battlegrounds coming in the near future, this nonsense needs to be addressed or half of the dps will be playing a hunter in solo shuffle BGs.
6-0 my very first SS lobby as mm hunturd
- drunk as hell
- havent played hunturd in 4 months
- lone wolf spec
- just press rapid fire and win
Probably until people stop talking them down. Good? LOL. A lot of the classes are good. MM hunters are on a completely different level.

It’s pretty bad at this point. You essentially have mm hunters and then everyone else.
Were you in a lobby with DK/Ret/War only? I guess not, because you’d have a baaaaad time.

Must be why MM is a spec that holds up poorly in all PvE and only reaches middle of the pack in arena, as well as being riddled with design issues in the baseline kit and talent tree.
Yes it would be absurd if Rapid Fire hit for that much, which it doesn’t.
Aimed Shot, the ability that is responsible for the bulk of the damage output, is not castable while moving.
It sounds like you don’t know the difference between a BM Hunter and an MM Hunter.
If there were not trade-offs, you would see more than half of the DPS playing Hunter in BGs right now. Yet you don’t.
Why didn’t you mention the one you lost right after this?
Not to mention this was sub-1000, where anything goes. Go look at the 1800+ bracket, where more people play Arms, Balance, Retribution, Windwalker, Shadow, Subtlety, Unholy, Havoc, Destruction, Fury, Survival, and Elemental than Marksmanship. 13th place for DPS specs, wow how gamebeaking.
Druids, Warlocks, and Mages are also capable of being game-alteringly powerful ranged specs in epic BGs. So no, actually.
Actually aimed shot can be instant cast fairly frequently, and multiple times in a row. The hunter in this clip died to only instant cast damage.
Sounds like you are the one lacking knowledge of MM hunter.

Do you know what causes it and what its proc chance is?
I do. I’m checking your knowledge.
I do. And in practice it’s very high, especially with rapid fire cause each hit can proc it. Hence why you can get multiple in a row.
Post what causes it and what its proc chance is.
You said aimed shot can’t be cast while moving. I post an example proving you wrong, and you want to argue about proc chance lol. I can keep posting clips of instant cast aimed shots securing kills that no other ranged spec could possibly do. Or you could just admit being wrong.

Seems like you don’t actually know what causes it since you’re stalling so much.
It’s a low proc chance for an otherwise standstill cast. There are plenty of such things for ranged DPS in this game’s history. No one then redefines those abilities as abilities that can be cast while moving. That’s just your obsession.
As for kills no one else can do: have you seen the amount of AoE DPS a moonkin can put out?
I know what procs it. I also know how often it procs in an average BG. It’s often enough that saying “aimed shot can’t be cast while moving” is a factually incorrect statement. I did not reclassify it as an instant cast ability. I just said it can be cast while moving, fairly frequently. There are not plenty of ranged abilities that can hit 300-400k crits from 70yd range with no cast time and near instant travel time. And now you’re trying to change the topic to aoe dps and boomkins lmao…

My dude, no one in the history of this game has reclassified immobile spells as mobile due to procs and cooldowns that occasionally make them mobile. I don’t believe you’re being sincere at this point (especially since you’ve continually evaded actually posting what causes instant aimed shots) so there’s not much point in continuing this.
“I did not reclassify it as an instant cast ability”
“wHy ArE yOu ReClAsSiFyInG iT As aN InStAnT CaSt!!!”
Holy reading comprehension
It’s not a cooldown. It’s a proc, with no ICD that can trigger multiple times in a row, and accounts for 20-25% of the aimed shots in an average BG. There are also separate procs and cooldowns that reduce the cast time to half a second or less. You clearly need more time playing the spec if you think it’s an immobile turret spec.
I said reclassifying it as a mobile ability, which you are doing no matter how much you say you’re not because you said I was lying for saying it was an immobile ability.
Again, no one ever reclassifies immobile abilities as mobile abilities because of occasional effects that make them mobile.
P.S.
I confirmed with the Hunter discord that this is not correct. So if you want to talk about factually incorrect statements, let’s start with this one.
Where did I say it was a mobile ability? I said you can get instant cast procs fairly frequently which you can use while moving, in response to your definitive statement that “it can not be cast while moving”. It can be. End of discussion. It’s not rare. It doesn’t require a niche spec, or a cooldown, or even an uncommon proc. If I cast 40 aimed shots in a BG, ~10 of them will be from Lock and Load. It’s easy to see in details, or just from watching back footage. If you are so unsure of your knowledge you are relying on a discord, you definitely need to play the spec more.
You said I was factually incorrect for saying Aimed Shot was an immobile ability.
You’re also making up numbers as you go along to exaggerate its effectiveness. It really does not proc that often.
To attack me for “not knowing the class” when you’re the one that made up a false claim about Rapid Fire is shameful deflection.
I checked with the Hunter discord because, unlike you, I care about what’s true or not and I don’t make things up as I go along. My prior knowledge said Rapid Fire does not proc Lock and Load, and as it turns out that’s correct. So evidently I know the spec better than you do.
Nobody is going to care about arena anymore once solo shuffle BGs come out. So let’s keep the hunter discussion to battlegrounds where they are godly pvp powerhouses. The video shows what most of us are suffering through when facing these pvp powerhouses.
The fact this guy is so adamant on defending this monstrosity of pvp design for “his class” tells me he is more than happy keeping it as is. I haven’t seen him mention any possible remedies for the situation.
