Pet of the Week: Saddled Clefthooves

3 Comments
I delayed in posting about these pets because I honestly thought there was a possibility they'd get nerfed (made untameable). After all, I've been disappointed before when I find a pet I love in beta, only for it to be made untameable. For a while, the only saddled clefthoof which was tameable was Giantbane and I … Continue Reading ››

Latest round of number tuning un-nerfs Survival

9 Comments
It's nice to have a beta build that isn't all nerfs! WoD Beta build 18967 went up last night and had a few hunter number changes. Both BM and SV got a little bump, which was sorely needed. In Survival's case, it was more of an un-nerfing.

Getting things done before 6.0

Well, patch 6.0 is now less than 2 weeks away. And I'm still procrastinating. Not all of my pre-Warlords goals have been met yet, but I'm making progress.
Complete: Brawler's Guild
Funnily enough, I ended up spending over 10k for my invite because I purchased it shortly after the Brawler's Guild came out. Then I did … Continue Reading ››

Hunting Party Podcast Episode 201: Loaded For Bear

9 Comments
Last night we had an epic level 1 dwarf hunter WHU raid on Icecrown-US to celebrate the return of the Hunting Party Podcast. About 80 hunters showed up in Dun Morogh! Then we raided Hogger, the Gurubashi Arena, and finally Orgrimmar. It was a blast and I can't wait for future WHU hunter events. 🙂 This morning we … Continue Reading ››

Pet of the Week: Teroclaws

4 Comments
Teroclaws are a new type of hunter pet found in Talador and I believe it's the first type of hunter pet that has both flying and grounded variants. They have been added to the Carrion Bird family, though many of us were hoping the grounded ones would have made it into the Raptor family. These are some … Continue Reading ››

WoD Beta 18927: Set Bonuses, Teroclaws, and the big taming pass

13 Comments
The most recent beta build is light on the class changes, but heavy on the pet changes! Ever since alpha/beta started, there have been a large number of pets that should have been tameable but were not. Most of those, but not all, have been fixed this build! Tier 17 Set Bonus Adjustments

WoD Beta 18888: Tier 17 set bonus testing, Dire Beast and Survival nerfs

13 Comments
Updated to include a new Black Arrow nerf from Sept. 23 build. Survival got some small nerfs in this build. I'm kind of perplexed by this since it was already doing less damage than BM and MM. Maybe the accompanying MM/BM changes will be in the next build? I really don't understand what's going on. As … Continue Reading ››

News Bits: Chimaeron guide updated, Robo Hunter on Final Boss, 6.0 PTR stuff

4 Comments
Have you been on the 6.0 PTR yet to test the hunter changes? If you weren't in beta, I'd highly recommend it! You can test out most of the new hunter stuff except the level 100 talents. The new pet families are tameable except for Riverbeasts and Rylaks which only exist in Draenor. One of … Continue Reading ››

Thoughts on the current state of hunter talents in Warlords of Draenor

16 Comments
I've been playing around with hunter talents lately to see how things are shaping up for each spec. Before I get started, keep in mind that this information is only up to date as of today. Number tuning is still in progress, but this will give you a good idea of how things are shaping … Continue Reading ››

Pet of the Week: Toucans! (aka Axebeaks)

4 Comments
Don't ask me how the physics work here or how those tiny wings can support such a front-heavy bodyweight which is apparently 90% beak, 10% feathers. Let's just hope your group or raid needs a versatility buff at some point so you have more excuses to use these adorable freaks of nature. Toucans (officially called Axebeaks, … Continue Reading ››
