First off hunter was my main class over a very long time and i had swored off playing hunter years ago because of the scatter/trap changes, but recently i had the urge to play it again. Please revert the changes please Blizzard. The game has became more pve since legion where a lot of our single target damage got built in aoe, ccs durations are much much lower than they were originally(I hate DF), and skill expression is much lower and revolve more cd tradings nowadays.
Im not asking to fix all this but please just make hunter feel fun again.
2 globals for a 6 second trap is more fun than coordinating with your team to use their stun into full trap with scatter to cross?

If you put it that way then no, but no thats not the point. The only use for scatter nowadays is to cover and thats it. We almost never use it as a chain with trap outside of very few scenarios.
Ah yes, the spec with a ranged ST stun, ranged AOE stun, potentially undispellable incap, other incap, and silence. Why not give it more CC kek
Oh mb i didnt realize hunter was a spec mb mb.
Anyway, my argument is to stop scatter and trap from sharing drs like they did 5 years ago
no the activation on trap was way more unpredictable to compensate. just go play classic arenas if u enjoy that specific interaction but it was cringe af, too much so for current gameplay
If i want to go play classic i will go play classic but im not. Hunter is my favorite class and this game has change hunter in a way where it feels like im constantly just mashing my dps rotation and neutralizing enemys goes and doing the occasional trap. Its not fun. My last post on this was 4 or something years ago and the game has continue to turn arena into more of a pve fest. I can overlook all of it but i only want this one change.
how is that one change going to fix
because that is literally every class and the way that blizzard wants their game to be played atm. u being able to scatter trap isn’t going to do much in the grand scheme of things when you already can do SO many things to land a trap. this post just sounds selfish cus u miss the little tick of serotonin when u watch the scatter, wobble, wobble, trap.
the current interaction being u either petstun and trap, scattering the third person. or just trap off someone elses cc while scattering the third person still. which actually gives counterplay becus it forces you to stop the third person from moving so they can’t sanc the stun, grip the trap, reverse the trap immediately. waaay more skill expression than the very boring “scatter is up soon, come stand as close as possible to me and hope it rng procs on u instead” that it was before. and now u have pet stun as every spec and binding shot… cmon
Can I also get Seduce and Fear on different DRs? lol

You can have db/ring on different drs
And because of that I genuinely believe the direction that blizzard is going is wrong. What i want is longer form of cc to be back and be more impactful than what it is now. Remove half the amount of piss cc thats in the game and just make long form cc stronger. This isnt just about hunter but cc in general. The nerf to cc in DF ruin this game a lot for me because of how much less of an impact cc is than what it was before.
When i was mostly playing my mage in DF i enjoyed it until the cc duration changes. Going for poly suddenly became almost meaningless over doing damage on a mage somehow. The game rn is just about trading cds, wait for 1 healer to oom, or dampening is too high.
But im like derailing to another topic, all i want is scatter and trap to not share cds because cc doesnt feel good nor impactful as it once was
Sounds like a skill issue. Hunter CC is insanely obnoxious
Noone said it wasnt all i said was that its not impactful like they use to be
No thanks. it should stay the way it is.
All cc was reduced and hunter remains one of the classes than can set their own cc with multiple failsafes. Harpoom trap, intim trap, scatter trap is nigh unavoidable for most healers after trinket and requires pre-doing stuff to avoid them or need external help.
I see no point in this thread tbh. This has to be one of the most obscure bizarre threads
Again its not about whether i can set up cc or not its about scatter & trap dr-ing with each other which should not be a thing.
80% of the thread on the arena forums are about nerfing what is strong this week so i dont see a point of not having this in the mix

All hunter specs now have scatter, trap, 2 stuns, knock, and a root.
Definitely don’t need to put scatter and trap on separate DRs atm XD
wild take, just throw the trap dont DR it with scatter.
