So before you go blacklisting hunters because they have leather gear learn2play and actually grind up a hunter and see why AP is so important, and for god sakes if you are so loot whorish about things just ask what people may be rolling on before you head out so there are no more "Hunter Ninja'd Dal'Rends" threads on the wow forums. Many times Hunters will take the dps role that a rogue would normally fill, in some cases no rogue would be there to roll. Most of the time I am the only healer so no one has a problem with me rolling, in other situations (pug) I would simply ASK if anyone minded if I roll on certain items beforehand (I do this for feral gear when I am playing healbot for the group). I have started a Hunter myself because I wanted to see why hunters thought they needed to roll on leather, I have a feral Druid who needs a lot of the same stats as rogues/hunters and like it was said before almost any hunter you see will have at least 1 peice of leather on them, some would rather sacrifice the armor for 1 or 2 peices of leather to get a better peice of equipment overall, that being said I would also like to say I as a Druid have rolled on good cloth peices I needed for healing gear. Hunters get such a large equip table because they end up doing different things, in different situations hunters will need different equipment, like Druids. In PvP Hunters almost always end up in a melee situation in the end, and each peice of leather that has better stats than mail is more damage, since hunters can't heal themselves they need to kill as fast as possible and that means maximising damage done, and when raptor strike can crit for upto 800 with the opening melee attack because they have stacked AP on a high damage 2h they love it. Also AP goes for both melee and ranged AP so more hunters go for raw AP for PvP and ranged AP for PvE. They also go for high damage melee weapons (usually 2h), because they can only shoot a player for so long the boost in damage they get from a good melee weapon helps a lot. Combat hunters, (usually more pvp oriented) generally wear mail over leather for the slightly higher damage mitigation but stats are still the main focus. A lot of these hunters are ususally PvE oriented. Most go for ranged weapons first and usually equip 2 weapons based purely on stats so they can get more AP from enchants (2x AGI enchant on 2 weapons = 60 AP). The ranged attackers go for pure stats, they usually only care about stats and they try and stay as far away as possible from physical damage so armor isnt much of a concern, if it was cloth with AP or AGI they would roll on it. Here is the reason, there are 2 different types of hunters or at least most hunters fall into one of these 2 catagories. But when it comes to a debate over good +agi/+crit%/+att power leather, everything changes, and now hunters will never get hit and defense is useless. When it comes to a debate over a high dps melee weapon, hunters go on and on about how they have to melee because aimed shot gets sooooo much hate (which I'm inclined to agree with). His alternatives just aren't as good as yours.Ĭomment by Thottbot" It's funny. If he already has something good like beaststalkers or some such, let the rogue have it. Look, if a hunter has crappy bracers and this is a big step up for him, I think I'd be ok with him calling need on it. hell, we can do a tad more than you with any melee weapon we can equip, but that just comes off like I'm bragging. I'd also like to point out that we can do a tad more than you with daggers. Tell you what, we get preference over you on maces, and you get preference over us on axes. That makes as much sense as saying that hunters should get all the agility daggers and swords, because rogues can use maces and we hunters can't. Comment by Thottbot Just because we have the ability to wear inferior mail armors, that somehow gives you claim to every piece of agi gear in the game?
