Im still wondering why our speed buff is 3 min and everyone else is 25 sec or so. Plus we never did get back our aruas. My guess is no one at the company plays hunter. Thus, they just do not care.

I just want my owls/skeletal hounds to be ferocity… the Fel-wolf and owls should have been in the wolves/birds of prey categories respectively anyways… that’s just lazy categorization right there…
I hear it’s not easy being green.

You used to be able to, got removed to make pets generic.
Yeah, IMO their a bit too generic now though.
It’s also super weird that ferocity is the go to for most everything now.
My hunter is only a super casual alt, so I don’t mean for my opinion to hold much if any weight here… but it just seems odd.
Back in the day it was a tank pet for solo (bear, boar etc), ranged pet for raids (to dump focus when they couldnt melee, windserpent), and a high dps pet like cat or ravager for optimal dps.
I remember back then we even used Fire resist hunter tank pets as platform tanks for Alar. Great times.

Yes, that’s exactly why.

My hunter pet has a spec?
How do I find out what it is?
Open your talent pane, and there should be a tab on the bottom that says “Pet”. It should display its spec =)

(heh, I didn’t notice that on my hunter until 52 or so.)
Yeah, that would leave me crabby, too

now? you’re like a few years late… this was changed 3 years ago back in 2018.
With Estherle i mostly only use a cat so said cat being part of the best family (ferocity) help. But for my other hunters where i prefer themed pet, its annoying that my sporebat or my mechanical pet returned to the useless cunning family.
You know what they did give hunters back though? That bug that re-enables growl if the hunter dings in a dungeon. Or maybe they never fixed it, but I’ve seen it in wrath dungeons this week.
Two reasons I play Marskman as Lone Wolf now:
- They forced pets back into permanent specs
- I hate having two pets as BM
How can you frost nova my pet… When it has 300 frost resist? MWAHAHAHAHAHA

I think they said something about wanting to make pets distinct but pretty much went about it in the worst way possible.
There is almost no reason to ever use a tenacity pet for anything or cunning outside of pvp or old instances for the speed boost as your main pet.
It’s something that they should address at some point. It really restricts choice.

Did a +11 plaguefall last night and tank’s alt went down on spider boss cause of necrotic. My ferocity pet was able to hold a tyrannical boss for a bit while we tried to recover. My tenacity pet would’ve dropped in like 3 hits.
Only thing tenacity is good for now is spirit mend and the defensive cooldown for hunter…
If that was the goal it failed miserably. Some pet families have a unique thing to help somewhat sometimes but on the whole it’s just a ferocity/tenacity/useless reskin.
EDIT: And for messed up families? Horses are considered ferocity pets. HORSES. What’s next, a ferocity bunny family?.. Monty Python jokes aside, of course.
