Hunter PvE Guide - WoW Classic

Posté le 26/07/2019

Greetings, hunter in training. Welcome to the temple of agility!

First of all, there are three things you need to know about hunters:

  1. Hunters are as hard to master as it is fun to play. You get your own tank and he loves ganking people!
  2. Hunters are poor! They’re missing a bag slot taken by their quiver, has to buy his own arrows and feed his pet.
  3. Hunters can’t do anything within their « dead zone » (targets 5 to 8m away): too far for melee, too close for ranged.  

 In raids, the hunter’s main job is to pull packs and bait them to tanks, as well as crowd control (Ice Trap or kiting). Of course, your job is also doing big DPS.

1. Recommended races for Hunters in PvE

Here is our selection of the best shaman race in wow classic for PVE or PVP.

Horde PVE : Troll

Tueur de bêtes: Useful passive because you’re going to encounter many beasts 
Berserker : Very powerful active racial during both leveling and high level PvE.
Spécialisation Arc : Very interesting passive that increases your hit chance and makes it less likely the enemy is going to parry/dodge/block your hits.

Alliance PvE: Dwarf

Forme de pierre : Use this when you’re in danger.
Spécialisation Armes à feu : Very interesting passive that increases your hit chance and makes it less likely the enemy is going to parry/dodge/block your hits.


For Horde players,  Troll wins by a mile: Berserker , Régénération , Tueur de bêtes and Spécialisation Arc allow you to attack faster, regen more life, do more damage to beasts and need a lower hit chance if you’re using a bow.

For Alliance players, dwarves with their Spécialisation Armes à feu are the only race with a useful bonus for hunters in PvE.

2. Recommended professions for Hunters

Here are the professions we recommend you pick for your hunter for PvE.

Skinning

Skinning is a very good choice when combined with Leatherworking, allowing you to be almost self-sufficient.

Leatherworking

The main appeal of Leatherworking is the creation of armors and munition bags (to increase your attack speed).

Herbalism

Herbalism lets you gather plants and herbs. Combine it with Alchemy and you can now make your own potions to get ready for raids, or simply sell the mat the Auction House for gold.

Alchemy

Crafting potions, oils or elixirs.

Engineering

Engineering is especially worthwhile because it lets you craft bombs, repair bots, pseudo-bandages, defibrillators and your Lunette de sniper.

3. The Hunter’s Job

Pulling :

Hunters start fights, preferably with a rank 1 Tir des arcanes that will do very little damage, allowing the tank to take aggro very easily.

Regardless of aggro range (mostly linked to levels), some mobs are linked together, and attacking one will make the others join the fight.

They can be linked for 3:

  1. Same mob type: humanoid, beast, undead, elemental, dragonkin…
  2. Same « faction »: Blackwing, Naxxramas…
  3. They just are, because the devs wanted be like that.

Think about this when pulling: a patrol of beasts will not necessarily pull the nearby group of humanoids. However, if they’re of the same faction, you will definitely pull them all.

Kiting :

You can kite in multiple ways, depending on the mob and whether or not he’s vulnerable Trait de choc.

First case: He is! Congratulations! You just need to keep up the debuff as well as aggro, and run around.

Second case: He is not. More complicated, you need to keep your threat up and run with Aspect du guépard on.  Careful not to get hit or you will be dazed.

Either way, a Piège givrant between you and the mob/boss before the pull will help.

Tranq-Shot :

Hunters can soothe some enemies with Tir tranquillisant, an ability you learn from looting Tome de Tir tranquillisant from Lucifron, the first boss in Molten Core.

Use an addon to be warned when an enemy enrages, use a macro to warn your raid and your fellow hunters that it’s their turn to cast the next « tranq-shot », depending on a pre-established order. Alternatively, use voice chat.

/cast Tranquilizing Shot
/yell Tranq Shot used!
/raid your turn “NextHunterOnTheList”

4. The best PvE pets

Which pet should I choose?

First, your pet has to look great and like you. Well, if he likes you it’s good enough. Your pet will do 125% more damage if he likes you. Fortunately, it’s pretty easy to get your pet to like you, just give him food!

Note that different types of pets have different characteristics and skills.

The best pet for raiding is the Worg Bloodaxe that you will find in Lower Blackrock Spire (LBRS), see below.
Hunter PvE Guide Classic WoW

The reason for using Worg Hache-sanglante is that it is the only pet with a rank 4 Hurlement furieux 

Careful: This buff doesn’t work on mid-flight arrows. Wait for a Visée or a Flèches multiples to use your pet’s buff to make the best of it

Here is a table showing the difference in stats of the various pet types.

5. The best PvE specs for Hunters

For 15 years now a war is being waged between the Marksmanship Survival and specializations. Beast Mastery, meanwhile, allows you to farm open world mobs extremely fast. Don’t worry though, once you know what you’re doing you’ll be able to crush the game’s challenges. Fun is more important than theorycrafting.  

First off, these specs will have to be double-checked when Classic release, they’re susceptible to change depending on how you like to play, else everybody would have the exact same character and we’d only talk about math, graphs and stats, which would suck the fun out of the game.

5.1 Marksmanship spec 5/31/15 :

Marskmanship hunters are the most common archetype in PvE. Their DPS is excellent and they buff their allies’ attack power in a 45m radius with : Aura de précision.

Mandatory talents are: 

5.2. Survival spec 0/21/30:

Survival Hunter is a good DPS (believe me!) but only after reaching 350 agility (so not before phase 4 at least) because you lose out on hunters’ main asset: Aura de précision

Survival is a fun spec, focused on critical strikes and trap usage. Because of this, it is highly dependent on agility. Survival has excellent crowd control.

6. DPS Rotation

Hunters’ rotation is mostly about Visée / Flèches multiples at the right time between Tir automatique. It’s pretty simple but you still have to be focused.

Slow weapons are ideal to minimize the amount of autoattack clipping. For example, if you start casting Visée 2 seconds before your autoattack, the auoattack will be clipped.

Indeed, autoattacks have a hidden cast time (unless you’re using the Swing-timer, mandatory if you want to be optimized) that is dependent on your weapon speed (and attack speed bonuses).

For example, if your Tir automatique has a cast time of 2.5 sec, you want to wait for that long before casting Visée or Flèches multiples or you’re going to clip your autoattack and lose DPS.

Flèches multiples also has a short cast time which can cut your autoattack, so be careful with it as well.

The more often you clip your autoattacks, the lower your DPS will be. Timing is essential to maximize your DPS. You can listen to or watch your character, and as soon as you hear/see the arrow leaving the bow, you can cast Visée or Flèches multiples.

Beyond that, the rotation is the same for both specs.

This cycle lasts for roughly 9 seconds depending on your weapon and your attack speed:

  1. Use Marque du chasseur before the pull (on multiple targets if necessary). This does not aggro enemies.
  2. Tir automatique
  3. Visée
  4. Tir automatique
  5. Flèches multiples
  6. Tir automatique
  7. Short break in the rotation because Aimed Shot isn’t ready yet. You can use Attaque du raptor if you can get to melee range or Feindre la mort to reset your threat
  8. Tir automatique
  9. Visée

Critical Strike Chance :

You mostly want to increase your critical strike chance via Agility.

A critical strike causes 230% of normal damage thanks to Coups mortels. The first point of critical strike chance on your character sheet increases your DPS by 1,3% but past 25% it increases it by less than 1%. This is why there’s a “soft cap” at 25%. Don’t worry too much about critical strike chance however, just get agility.

Hit Chance :

You absolutely need to be hit capped 9% hit chance unless Dwarves with rifles or Trolls with bows who only need 6%.

Favor a low attack speed weapon (around 3.0) so your autoattacks don’t get clipped by your skills. Using a Carquois en cuir de harpie this 3.0 speed is lowered to 2.61.

N’oubliez pas que votre ou vos armes de corps à corps ne vous servent quasiment exclusivement qu’à vous buffer, privilégiez donc leurs statistiques et enchantements à leurs DPS ! 

8. Consumables for high level PvE

Consumables are extremely important in Classic WoW, especially in the beginning or when a new raid is released. Alchemy and Cooking bring a lot of value to a raid; we recommend you follow our guides to level these professions.

You will find below a non-exhaustive list of some necessary consumables for raiding.


Flasks:

Foo: 

Magical Protection :

Scrolls :

Weapon oil : 

There are many more consumables that can be useful for specific encounters or hard bosses.
