Bored Hunter needs some advice!Follow

#1 Oct 24 2008 at 9:46 PM Rating: Decent
Well i've been reading the forums on Allakhazam for a very long time but now it's time to ask for some help.

Background: I've had 2 accounts hacked in the last 4 years, leveled/raided with a BM Hunter & Shadow Priest at 60 before TBC. Leveled/Raided with a tanking Sublet Rogue (shoulda saw me tank heroics with a rogue LOL!) and a Holy Pally. Now i'm on my 3rd account protected with an authenticator, which should help, so I decided to level up a hunter again. In the past i've done raiding, BGs, arenas, etc but now it's time to fly solo and run with my wife at times too. I'm no longer into the numbers topping the DPS charts and all that. Just want to have some fun on the hunter. I've already run most of the pre 70 instances with just me and my wife. She's a resto druid and my gorilla tanks no problem.

So i'm spec'd BM and it's getting really boring. I know how to play BM very well already and i'm good at it but to the point where i'm losing my mind as it's not a challenge anymore. Well that and I like BUTTONS! LOL! I'm not necessarily looking for the most survivability or the highest DPS but maybe a mix? Something more fun than just sending the pet in to tank and 3 shotting mobs. I play some PvE and some PvP. If I do instances it just my wife and I but as we've found out I don't need a BM spec for my pet to tank just fine with the wife healing. I've been MM and Surv and like both but I have no idea how to play survival tho it's fun to make things go BOOM with the exploding shot.

With all the changes to hunters, pets, and the new pet talents i'm so utterly confused! Before it was easy to pick a pet but now... I know my problem is my talent, pet, pet combo i'm using but I can't get around it. It seems like I want more talent points than I have so I need some help.

Question: What is a good MM or Survival talent spec, pet, pet talent spec to use for the following criteria;

*Viable for PvP
*Viable for PvE 5 mans
*Viable for grinding
*Lots of fun but not BM

When I say "viable" i'm not looking for a spec that's the best in everything or anything. I'm just looking for a spec that i'll have a chance in everything with some skill. Every time I make a spec it leans either towards PvE or PvP completely and at 50 gold per respec i'm coming here for help. I've already tried numerous builds, about 4 this week alone, but can't seem to get one that fits what I need. Hoping that you pros can help a confused hunter out!

That conflicts with the subject of the thread, for me.

I don't know about anyone else, but I am learning far too much to have the time to be bored.

With some of the informed people posting in this section, you will find the answer to your question or someone to answer it (via the forum or Private Message (when folk remember to check)).

For builds, read through the WotLK Builds thread: HERE

You'll soon see that there are others.
