Still waiting to see this addressed. Maybe it’s time to make a hunter and abuse it.
A hunter(lvl25) hit my mage(level25) 1 time with his pet and it put a poison dot on me. I took me down to 25% hp from full. This buff stacks. If the pet literally just hit me 1 more time I would of been dead. The fact blizzard doesn’t think this is a big deal is crazy to me.

The devs are too busy figuring out what the next buff to paladins will be.

Sure can’t. It doesn’t take long for them to kill you either.
Good thing it doesn’t do that much damage. Sorry but sunfire is a non-issue when compared to pets doing well over most classes total damage output.
Rather fight a Rogue, Druid, Warrior and anything else then a Pet. It’s just a no win situation that is ruining gameplay. Then the problem is multiplied cause there are usually more than 1 Raid boss pet.
They already said they were going to nerf scorpions poison. They tried but it ruined pets so they took it off kill command but they they are probably trying to do it in a way that doesn’t destroy pet in general. Hunter has been such a roller coaster as someone who generally mains hunter it hasn’t been worth it. Before launch nerfs a few days later nerfs then a reverted nerf. Idk what they should do but at this point it’s like they have no clue what they’re doing. My hunter is sitting at 25 until the next phase or they finish the changes until then I’ll play my other toons. I hope they need scorpions and revert chimera shot and I think the class will be fine for this phase.
Hopefully soon!
Looking at logs for BFD, the number 1 DPS is a warrior and there are only 5 warriors in that group, with a whopping 1 hunter.
Hunters totes need moar nerfs.

I also know it’s an exaggeration but besides scorpions busted damage the pets only have 1500-2000hpish with beast master and if you spec into bm and use the rune the hunters shots are noting. They’ll have serpent sting and arcane/multi shot. Once they fix the poison bm will go back to being for solo content.
If they nerf scorpid poison, we’ll use Wind Serpents, which will be slightly less DPS. But, we’re already seeing warriors starting to scale well…
Hunter’s aren’t going to be top dog for even another week as it is.

Please nerf this garbage
Funny coming from a warrior who is doing 50% more dps than any other class in BFD right now. Warriors have been overtuned for 20 years now.
i mean the hunter still has all of that, just not blatantly giga overpowered versions of it. A nerf does not remove it from the game, just balances it.
In my last BFD pug, the Scorpid ALONE (not even counting Hunter damage) did more than both tanks and our two Warlocks.

If you remove scorpid and serpent you might as well remove hunter from the game because it will be trash. Even as a hunter player through and through I will abandon the class if we are not adequately compensated if said nerf does come through.
Why would you need to be compensated for fixing an unintended bug? If you quit over it you’re just a wanker who wants to be overpowered at everyone’s expense. Hopefully you do quit when they fix it.

No, they’re doing less damage on average than rogues and hunters.
If you look at top players its basically a mix of war/hunter/rogue

yeah yeah sky is falling whoa is me yada yada. Same song and dance we hear from each broken spec before it gets nerfed and it always stays fine.
yawn.
and keep in mind without windfury being comepletely busted it would be hunters leading the pack by a minimum of 30%. Windfury is so overtuned for this version it’s not even funny.
Yes I can also make up hypothetical situations where its different, but the fact is warriors are not overpowering other classes at the moment given everything available, hunter/rogue/war are neck and neck.
