I now want a knife tied to a rope after reading that. Just tie a rope to any ol’ melee weapon, and boom, ranged weapon.

Lol if you can’t get back to insult people in a proper time, don’t bother. We don’t care what RL stuff is going on, it just makes you look pathetic to come back after days just to argue with people.
Sorry for not spending all my free time on the forums, I guess? The thread is still active so I made a response.
You need to learn the difference between criticising idea vs criticising the person. Note how I said your idea was terrible. I didn’t say you were terrible/pathetic even though you said that to me.
I was saying this a month or so ago in another thread talking about revamping Survival. I was all for a thrown weapon that can be recalled in some way, even if it’s with a rope/chain. That would sort of fit the spec fantasy, and it would add something new to the game overall! It could be class specific, sort of how DH has glaives. I suppose people would be upset though about an item being class specific
When aren’t people upset? That’s not a reason to not do something. Now an overwhelming amount of people being upset is different, but I’d be willing to see if it takes.

I have played most of the melee specs in the game extensively, and survival may be the smoothest out of them all.

Fair enough lol. I don’t recall people being upset about glaives, but that could have also been because we’d just received an entirely new class, and they were complaining about DH only having 2 specs.

Smoother then WW, Ret or Rogue… get real
Nah, rogues and warriors were mad I’m pretty sure. No more RP with Blades. I think I’m remembering correctly, anyway. Pretty sure they lost the ability to wield them. I could be wrong, I don’t remember things like that that don’t bother me.

Most of the outcry has been about transmog specifically. There has a good amount of outcry about the warglaives of azzinoth since they are wieldable by a number of different classes (since it is classified as a sword since it has existed since BC), but only Demon Hunters can transmog them when they finally made them transmoggable because they are warglaives.
There has been some about other mogs that people feel should be available to others, like the night elf glaive from the Darkshore warfront, that is a weapon seen used by Night Elf huntresses in WC3 and Night Elf non-demon hunter NPC’s in WoW

Only thing that needs to be reworked is Butchery.
-Carve should be removed and replaced with baseline Butchery.
-Butchery can be replaced by Chakrams.
-Chakrams can be replaced by Wilderness Survival or Primeval Intuition.
That’s gonna be a no from me friend.

I don’t know what to tell you. The rotations for both single target and aoe are super simple and not completely bloated like most other melee classes.
Single target is literally just keeping a couple of dots up on the target and alternating back and forth between kill command and raptor strike until Flayed Shot procs or Bombs comes off cooldown.
Aoe is just as easy, with using carve and bombs on cooldown and filling the downtime by tab-targetting kill commands on everything.
Yeah, both Butchery and Chakrams are weird. They could make Chakrams have some kind of synergy with Serpent Sting to flesh out that build some more…like a big crit modifier or something if it hits targets that are affected by your Serpent Sting.
No, they don’t need a melee spec at all. Periodt. No question.

They way the game is balanced right now, you could argue no class needs a melee spec. the problem is that a lot of us only enjoy playing melee.
I get it.
I’m one of them.
But hunter is the one ranged I enjoy. I loved Surv in MoP. I didn’t necessarily hate the WoD rework putting them in melee but in reflection I like ranged better.
Or.
You know - to completely shoot class balance out of the water they could make survival dual-builds. Where depending on talents you could go melee or ranged… I feel like pre-cata this was a thing? But I wasn’t playing hunter til Cata…

Evidently even most of that crowd avoids Survival.

We get it. You don’t like melee survival.

Yeah demon hunter has the same rotation for single target and AoE.
Mechanically bad just like it is for survival.
Calling this smooth seems like the incorrect word instead you’re thinking of the world simple
