COMPLETE BEGINNER’s PvP Guide to Season of Discovery Hunter 🏹 (Runes / Pets / Rotation / Gear❗)

even after the daily Nerfs season of Discovery Hunter PVP is still super strong Marksman PVP is in such a great spot with the kiing man efficiency and most importantly damage in this guide we'll go over why Marksman races runes talents DPS rotation gears and stats pets professions and finally add-ons and macros the problem with Marksman early on in classic wow was that pets did so much damage relative to what Hunters could pull off consistently due to Mana restraints of using too many abilities season of Discovery changes that to make Hunters viably spam their abilities giving Hunters at 25 an the easy way to burst down multiple players during fights being paired with a boore makes Hunters better able to kite out enemies and keep control in Long fights Hunters with their long range do best in group PVP making Ashen bille World PVP and warung gch Hunters bread and butter you'll have a ton of fun with this version of marksman Hunter we will go over which races are best for PVP for Alliance Races they have a little more of a preference pick than horde does as there is no standout racial in either night Elf or dwarves night elf hunters get a higher base agility so they will do very slightly more damage than dwarves quickness is an ability which increases their Dodge Chance by 1% they also get plus 10 nature resistance and Shadow meld you can use shadowmeld to surprise players in stealth and also it lets you stealth while eating and drinking back to health you do have to be out of combat to use shadowmeld and using any ability during shadowmeld breaks you out of stealth dwarves get stone form which is useful because it gets rid of bleeds poisons and diseases and there are only a few items that gets rid of those so it could definitely save lives Frost resistance could help out a bit versus Mages and there really is not enough guns in the 25 bracket for the plus five gun skill to be useful for horde races orc is definitely the best Horde race for hunters because of their hardiness skill which gives you a 25% chance to resist a stun effect axe specialization gives you increased axe skill and I do recommend using two-handed axes so this definitely helps command increases pet damage by 5% and blood Fury is only for Millie so it's okay just not the best I'd put troll second because of their berserking which increases attack speed and with lower Health you get higher attack speed bow speec increases your bow skill by five and we will be using mostly bow so this helps regeneration increases health regen torn get War stomp which gives you a stun endurance which gives you more health and nature resistance runes are the new system that is introduced in the season Mastery they act like an enchantment to a slot of your gear giving you either a new or passive ability changing up your play style you can also switch out of your runes whenever you're out in the world the three slots you could have a rune are chest hands and legs I use Master Marksman for my chest Chimera shot for my hands and flanking strike for my legs and this is where you could locate them master of marksman increases your crit Chance by 5% and reduces the Mana cost of your shots and stings by 25% this makes it so you can spam your abilities for a lot longer keeping you in the fight longer increasing your total damage crit is a strong stat to have in classic wow so this Rune is a no-brainer Chimera shot even after its Nerf is a super strong ability it causes 85% of weapon damage and refreshes the sting that is applied to an enemy if you have serpent sting on an enemy it dealss 40% of the total damage that serpent sting has caused if you have scorpion sting it disarms the target which is very useful for defense in PvP when melee players are attacking you or your healers flanking strike is a new ability that deals 100% of melee damage from both you and your pet it then gives you a buff that increases the damage of your next Raptor strike or mongus bite by 10% which Stacks up to three times Raptor strike also has a 20% chance to reset flanking strike and and since Raptor strike has a 6sec cool down and the buff only lasts 10 seconds it means that you only have one attempt to get the refresh of flanking strike this means you always want to use flanking strike before you use Raptor strike in the hopes that you do get that 20% refresh for talents this is what I run and I've been absolutely loving the game playay the first choice is between improved concussive shot and efficiency I go with efficiency because it Stacks with our Master Marksman Rune giving us uptime in fights which is something Hunter was lacking in Classic this results in increasing our overall damage it's also better for raids and I don't like switching back and forth so it's what I'm running with right now but improved concussive shot gives a 20% chance to stun at its Max rank so it's obviously really good for PVP lethal shots increases your crit Chance by another 5% and stacks with our Master Marksman 10% crit at these levels is a good reason why Hunters are so bursty and have big DPS aim shot is a 3 second cast increasing our weapon damage by 70 super strong in group PVP it makes switching to a new Target an easy way to catch healers offguard and also burst down kill Target so that healers have a hard time keeping them up Hawkeye increases our range by six giving our ranged abilities a 41 yard range helping us out with kiting running down and catching enemies and again op for group PVP the last two points I put in humanoid slaying which increases all damage caused by humanoid targets by 2% % and also increases crit damage to humanoids by an additional 2% giving Hunters more damage against players in classic wow autoshot will always be one of the top sources of damage you want to autoshot before pressing any ability to take advantage of the Dead time in between Auto shots here's a general DPS rotation you want to Hunter Mark the target Auto shot serpent sting Auto shot aim shot Auto shot Chimera shot and this takes priority to refresh serpent thing Auto shot multi-shot and then repeat for gear your stats you want to prioritize agility over Stam for hunters every point of agility you get is two range attack power you also get 1% crit for every 53 points of agility and 1% Dodge for every 26 points of agility one agility also is one melee attack power which is why agility is the best for hunters it makes us do more damage for Mee and especially in ranged stamina is really good for PVP because it allows you to survive longer which is the name of the game in PvP if you going to Buy Auction House gear prioritize of the monkey gear because it gives you agility and Stam know that if you do buy it on the auction house that not all gear have the same stats some are higher and i' actually seen the ones with higher stats sometimes sell for cheaper than the same piece with lower stats so pay attention to that I also recommend using slow toand of the axes as well slow twoand axes have the highest damage for weapons this makes it very useful as we do prioritize range damage but when an enemy comes at us we are able to take advantage of the high damage from the weapon and Raptor strike is able to deal Raptor strike works by adding damage to your melee damage so the higher damage your weapon deals the more damage you will be able to get out of your Raptor strike and now with flanking strike players will be surprised with how much damage we deal in melee generally two-handed weapons also have more stats than a dual wield equivalent for pets bore is my preferred pet for PV P because of their charge ability Bora is great because it eats everything is very tanky and Deals good damage they also get the charge ability which Roots the Target in place for 1 second keeping enemies off of you you want to take off the AutoCast macro and bind charge so you can use it when you need it you can check out every pet model and ability at wow-petopia do.com back/ classic and remember that pets have to learn the new rank of their abilities the way to do that is that you have to stable your current pet and tame the new pet with the ability that you want and have that pet use the Ability on enemies until it says that you learn the new higher ranked pet ability the highest ranked abilities that you could get for your boar at 25 is a rank four bite and rank three charge you could get the rank four bite from black ravagers in dwood just north of darkshire and for rank three charge you get that only from Belly Grub in red Ridge always keep your pet happy because it makes them deal more damage and whenever you're in a ask Mages for both food and water as Sports could eat conjured food for professions in classic engineering is generally the PVP profession and I do believe that it's strong at 25 but now that leather working has the new epic glove pattern it really is more of a preference to what you want if you want to focus more on PVP I'd say go engineering if you are a PVP and PVE enjoyer definitely check out those gloves the way I would recommend leveling up engineering is actually starting off with skinning and Mining so that you can get the extra income from skinning and work on your Mining and mail the material to a bank all until you have enough mats to get the max professions cap at50 you could check out wow-professions dcom and it will give you a rough estimate of the amount of materials that you'll need this will save you time from stopping to level engineering while leveling which you really do not need for it I actually grabbed enough mat to get my engineering skill to 100 and then I grabbed the goggles because home pieces don't drop until your mid-20s allowing you to grab the those stats pretty early also while leveling do focus on grabbing every single Mining Node that you come across in the first zones even go out of your way to kill the mobs to get to a Mining Node this is because it helps a ton to be able to access the higher level mining nodes when you get to New zones for add-ons and macros the only add-ons I recommend for pppp are threat plates and details threat plates is a good unit frame add-on that tracks debuffs on enemies like your serpent thing displaying it right overhead of the enemy details is great because it allows you to see your damage and your teams if you see a hunter getting higher damage you can compare what you are doing differently than he is I use a lot more add-ons but those are the ones that are good for PVP I have been trying to find a good Battleground Target type add-on if you guys have suggestions let me know both all of the add-ons and macros I have and use are listed in my Discord which I have linked down in the description below and as a bonus for those who are still leveling everyone knows the inefficient leveling classic wow experience running 20 minutes to a new Zone only to be able to do two Quest because you didn't talk to the right person two levels ago in a different Zone to help with leveling I wanted to share Joanna's guide Joanna held the top leveling speedrun back in vanilla and created a leveling guide and add-on for all classes he has been updating it since classic Wild released in 2019 and has continually updated it to help out this channel use that reference link link below to get Joanna's leveling guide and add-on I've been using it since 2019 and have also been using it in season of Discovery to quickly level up alts and cannot recommend it enough it is perfect for people who want to learn speed leveling level multiple alts or want an efficient leveling experience it has a ton of Hunter leveling tips recommends what pets you get for the highest available abilities shows you the quest MPC character models marks them and makes a sound when they spawn or are targetable and it even tell tells you when to put Quest items in the bank for later turn-ins and so much more again using that reference link does help out this channel thanks for watching and good luck in season of discovery
