"Kindred Spirits" talent annoyanceFollow

Maybe because I always duo with a Warlock, I find the Kindred Spirits movement buff incredibly annoying. My Warlock leveling partner keeps getting outpaced by us because of this annoying "stat boost".

Honestly, I'd MUCH rather have more attack power added to Kindred Spirit and have the movement buff removed.

I <3 Kindred Spirits, too--it makes Heigan even easier than it already is, and then everyone else glares at me and makes mean noises.

ZOMG AETHIEN WE CAN BE BM BUDDIES. <3 <3

I'm only BM for arena and BG's though.



BM+enh shaman = Vulgar Display of Power.
BW + Bloodlust + orc racial + wolves = someone who doesn't receive heals dead in ~5 sec.


We've killed rogues in literally under 5 seconds flat.

Also note that it is a bad comp.
SV+Hpriest or SV+Rdruid is much better.


It's damn good fun though.

If you want to run Enh/BM take it to 3's with a priest or druid.

If you play it right its quite possibly the scariest ******* 3's team in existance.

We were thinking of adding a holy paladin actually, why priest or druid?

Druid has more cc than a paladin, and possibly better survivability (bubble vs barkskin). Priests can control the fight better than a paladin with fears and burns.

But, also the buff situation too. Blessings vs Fort/Spirit/PoS(which the paladin can offer as well if they come out of Concentration) vs Mark/Thorns

Of course, you could go with a protadin healer and add some more burst in but you're paladin won't be near as effective in healing 2 other people plus himself.

Personally I just think there is more synergy with a priest or druid in that 3's comp.

Well, most shaman/hunter/healer comps are elemental+SV+Holy, so that's why we were thinking of getting a holy paladin. :P

You know, I'm going to be an *** and tell you to go SV because you can actually be good in arena and still kill stuff in 5 seconds.

Also, after a while you realize that Shammies are overpowered for 2s and you'll use a Pally and be cool like me.

Well, I guess it's nice to see people are having fun with the topic.. even if it HAS gone a tiny bit (ok, COMPLETELY) off topic.

I still dislike the movement enhancement of Kindred Spirits and wish there were some way to deactivate it. If I were only soloing my hunter I guess I would enjoy any speed boost I can find, but as part of a duo where the other isn't a hunter, well, it's more of a hindrance than a help.

And I'll tell you that BM is awesome if you have 300 resillience and get squashed without it.
Really, all our team does is crash and burn and pray we get them down before we die.

Also, BM PvP is a lot of fun.





Oh, and maybe you should watch the regional finals of the 3v3 tournament, every hunter in there is BM. ;)


Edit: @ Capcanuk:
this happened to your thread.

And you can always just strafe right and left a bit and he won't lag behind anymore.

If it wasn't my girlfriend's choice, I'd be there right now. Besides, I'd still be playing SV and being better than 99% of the people there.

Anyways,I'd just lose to retarded DK Cleave comps and anything with Rogue+Priest.

Pfff, I only count 7 Death Knights, 7 paladins and 6 rogues in those 14 teams.


Edit: And think of BW, it makes your pet eat casters and rogues alive.










Oh, and I fully agree that SV is better, but not with my current PvP gear and our tactic.

SV/MSwar/Rsham is also scary as ****.

Any team that has explosive shot and heroism = scary. Add bladestorm into the equation and it gets scarier.





Remind me to level my hunter faster and go SV for pvp.

Arex, you realize that hunters are still the class with the lowest representation? (and thus technically, the worst PvP class out there)


Edit: shamans are even lower overall.
Zomg underdogteamgo!

I know that they're under represented, it isn't what I'm going for.

What I'm saying is hunters are great at pvp when people play them right. More often than not, people dont know how to play their class and end up failing miserably in pvp/pve what have you.

As for shamans.

Yeah, my druid is pretty faceroll when it comes to surviving things my buddie's shaman can't take. When I was running ret/resto in the 1800's I would tank warriors all the time. So we streamed for him one day and he was like "Arex, I hate that you can take this ****." So he streamed for me, he's at 2100 with a hunter he would get 3-4 pumped with over 1k res.
