Survival survivability

Touche. Still feels terrible and I think it should be changed

It is terrible and not exactly but feels similar to when cloak of shadows had a 90% chance.

As a personal unlike darkness (which is kinda dumb too) itā€™s garbage to just die thru it anyway

Reworking or revisiting hunter defensives is a little different than saying make turtle an immunity to everything but dots

What difference does it make? Give it the survival instincts treatment then like Murphy suggested.

Not like weā€™re gaming to go thru turtle like itā€™s a micro game/skill check. Or the hunter is bad for turtling insta out of stun but dies anyway

We should start making other defensives that arenā€™t immunities act the same way then.

Dark pact out of a stun and chaos bolt goes thru? Too bad

Only if the dot animation fully forms first tho

Because the only defensives in the game that work retroactively are immunities

Either hunter gets an immunity or it doesnā€™t

Every other defensive used after a projectile is launched does not mitigate any damage (except survival tactics)

Yea yea you can dark pact during stuns Iā€™m starving and waiting on food


This how every wall works? Does netherward not reflect mid air projectiles?

When they have the choice to press feign instead and get the exact outcome they claim to expect from pressing turtle, I feel confident calling them bad

Not if nether is pressed after the cast ends

Same with disperse, unending resolve, etc etc

Iā€™ll have to pay closer attn because Iā€™ve just never seen full damage into disperse like that

Nor has anyone complained about dying thru nigh immunities or defensives like Iā€™ve seen hunter consistently

It is very obvious with a slow moving projectile like chaos bolt

Hitting 170k into the little shadow cloud that thinks theyā€™re safe is satisfying

Iā€™m weighing in anecdotally here but Iā€™ve seen chaos bolt land for the kill on people with mature defensives up since wod, and sp usually lets it happen even more often than hunter ime.

I already canā€™t go hunters with 1 disengage. Pls no.

I learned the way walls work the hard way s3 of sl pre destro nerfs

Oops didnā€™t UR pre triple bolt infernal stun guess they all land for max dmg

Same, chaos bolt in itself causes a lot of wtf moments because the damage gets calculated a day before the animation lands. Iā€™ve seen Sockems kill a rogue thatā€™s cloaked mid death animation

But itā€™s an extreme and turtle causes wtf moments more than other defensives as far as Iā€™ve seen.


Granted I donā€™t think Hunter should have a full immunity. Being ranged physical they should have chinks in their defensives but there should be security in their penultimate defense imo

I think blizzards intention is to feign into turtle but that could just be me malding at feign for 3 years straight

Itā€™s the same way I think some rdruids need to learn to meld into tranq on certain occasions because thereā€™s unavoidable dmg coming in otherwise

We arenā€™t going to save a 30sec cd all game or be able to align the CD and predict dmg so far in advance that we have feign before turtleā€¦ what if someone pressed feign into stun/coil before they can press shell?

locks have coil, pact, port + soulburn freedom, and can use fear defensively. most classes can use their defensives WHILE stunned or have some sort of auto proc when they fall below X HP

This isnā€™t a skill issue, itā€™s bad game design

Nah itā€™s a bit of a skill and bias issue on your part

Ascend proc might be dumb but itā€™s a team game and if you choose to trade something in once situation your team should help trade in another

Also someone can correct me if Iā€™m wrong but roar sac is usable while stunned right? Itā€™s just if the pet is ccā€™d or not

Then you failed to judge the right time to feign

yes anti crit will not save me from bolt or other major offense cds, theres no comparison here. and my point is there are more things to use feign on that just X ability all game. ofc we have ppl that dont agree instantly going for the ā€œskill issueā€ argument by the looks of it classes that are countered by hunters. Iā€™m not here to discuss skill im here to discuss a flawed defensive
