EFFECT: Increase the duration of Freezing and Frost Trap effects by 15/30% and
the damage of Immolation and Explosive Trap effects by 15/30%.
POINTS: 2/2
TIER: 3
OVERVIEW: Excellent talent. The bonus that all four Traps receive is
incredibly good. 30% means your target stays frozen for six seconds
longer and will take 30% more damage from your already-strong Immolation
Trap. This is a worthy investment.
-----------
Survivalist
-----------
EFFECT: Increases total health by 2/4/6/8/10%.
POINTS: 5/5
TIER: 3
OVERVIEW: This talent is often overlooked since most players prefer to invest
their points into hard-hitting damage talents, but it’s a nice talent to have
if you’re serious about your own survival. If you choose not to invest in
this, it’s not a big deal. You will still get an adequate amount of Stamina
with the right equipment.
----------
Deterrence
----------
EFFECT: Grants you access to Deterrence.
POINTS: 1/1
TIER: 3
OVERVIEW: This move is good for those dire situations where you’re in melee
range and need to duke it out with your melee weapon. 25% to your dodge and
parry is very significant and paves the way for Counterattack, which is a
very good move.
------------
Trap Mastery
------------
EFFECT: Decreases the chance enemies will resist trap effects by 5/10%.
POINTS: 2/2
TIER: 4
OVERVIEW: Traps don’t get resisted very often so it’s hard to decide whether
or not investing your points in this talent would be worth it. Besides, there
are other alternatives if your traps do get resisted so it’s not a major loss
if you don’t decide to have this.
----------
Surefooted
----------
EFFECT: Increases hit chance by 1/2/3% and increases the chance movement-
impairing effects will be resisted by 5/10/15%.
POINTS: 3/3
TIER: 4
OVERVIEW: What will quickly shut down a Hunter is when a Warrior or a Rogue
gets too close, and either Hamstrings or Poisons you. This talent isn’t
guaranteed to save you from all slowing effects but it certainly helps. It’s
a very nice talent to have around.
--------------------
Improved Feign Death
--------------------
EFFECT: Reduces the chance that your Feign Death will be resisted by 2/4%.
POINTS: 2/2
TIER: 4
OVERVIEW: Feign Death won’t fail very often but you’ll find that when it does,
it does so most often during fights against high-level mobs and bosses. This
will help out greatly during those times, especially in the endgame raid
instances where your ability to manage your aggro becomes extremely important.
------------------
Survival Instincts
------------------
EFFECT: Reduces all damage taken by 2/4%.
POINTS: 2/2
TIER: 5
OVERVIEW: As a ranged attacker, you don’t take much damage, but inevitably,
you’ll come across many encounters where you’ll take damage anyway, especially
in PvP. When that happens, this talent becomes an excellent asset to you. 4%
may not seem like much but it’s the difference between life and death, and you
need a lot of armor to get that kind of reduction, not to mention it also
applies to spell damage.
---------------
Killer Instinct
---------------
EFFECT: Increases your critical strike chance with all attacks by 1/2/3%.
POINTS: 3/3
TIER: 5
OVERVIEW: This is a must-have talent for anyone investing their talent points
primarily in the Survival tree, since it’s a major source of damage in that
tree. Make sure to tack on Lethal Shots from the Marksmanship tree.
-------------
Counterattack
-------------
EFFECT: Grants you access to Counterattack.
POINTS: 1/1
TIER: 5
NOTE: You must have 1 point in Deterrence to access this talent.
OVERVIEW: This is an amazing move due to the fact that it can’t be dodged,
blocked, or parried and it instantly immobilizes them. Think of this as Aspect
of the Monkey and Mongoose Bite slapped together as one move. If you’ve gone
far enough to access this move, you should invest your one point in it.
---------------
Resourcefulness
---------------
EFFECT: Reduces the mana cost of all traps and melee abilities by 20/40/60%
and reduces the cooldown of all traps by 2/4/6 sec.
POINTS: 3/3
TIER: 6
OVERVIEW: Resourcefulness is one of those things that help you outlast your
opponents at close range, and while melee abilities aren’t too costly on your
mana pool, Traps can devour them. Just look at Explosive Trap and imagine how
much more comforting it would be if it were to cost less than half its mana
cost, and can be reset six seconds early.
------------------
Lightning Reflexes
------------------
EFFECT: Increases your agility by 3/6/9/12/15%.
POINTS: 5/5
TIER: 6
OVERVIEW: This talent is one of the reasons why Agility is so important for a
Survival hunter. With the right amount of Agility, this talent can potentially
increase your overall critical strike chance by well over 1%. Be sure to
invest your points into this talent if you’ve gotten this far.
------------------
Thrill of the Hunt
------------------
EFFECT: Gives you a 33/66/100% chance to regain 40% of the mana cost of any
shot when it critically hits.
POINTS: 3/3
TIER: 7
OVERVIEW: While Resourcefulness allows you to outlast your opponents at close
range, this talent allows you to do so at long range. With the high critical
strike chance that you get from being a Survival Hunter, expect Thrill of the
Hunt to trigger often.
------------
Wyvern Sting
------------
EFFECT: Grants you access to Wyvern Sting.
POINTS: 1/1
TIER: 7
NOTE: You must have 3 points in Killer Instinct to access this talent.
OVERVIEW: Despite the 2-minute cooldown, Wyvern Sting is still a fun move to
have around. It’s a short-term crowd control with a fast-acting DoT. In the
middle of a fight, you can even Feign Death and Sting a player to stop him/her
from fleeing. Put your talent point here and have fun with this.
---------------
Expose Weakness
---------------
EFFECT: Your ranged criticals have a 10/20/30% chance to apply an Expose
Weakness effect to the target. Expose Weakness increases the attack power of
all attackers against that target by 25% of your Agility for 7 sec.
POINTS: 3/3
TIER: 7
NOTE: You must have 5 points in Lightning Reflexes to acess this talent.
OVERVIEW: The ultimate Dragonstalker set bonus can now be yours in this compact
form. This is also a reason why Agility is so important. It fuels this
talent’s potency, and the more you have, the more of an impact this talent
will have when it triggers, and with the amount of critical strikes you can
achieve, you can be sure that this will trigger quite often.
----------------
Master Tactician
----------------
EFFECT: Your successful ranged attacks have a 6% chance to increase your
critical strike chance with all attacks by 10% for 8 sec.
POINTS: 5/5
TIER: 8
OVERVIEW: This talent is what makes this tree so powerful. Master Tactician
works alongside Expose Weakness, and boosts the critical strike chance that
other talents, such as Lightning Reflexes, have given you. If you’ve gotten
to this point, be sure to invest your points into this talent.
---------
Readiness
---------
EFFECT: Grants you access to Readiness.
POINTS: 1/1
TIER: 9
OVERVIEW: Double Wyvern Stings? 30-second Rapid Fire? Need to redo Feign Death?
It’s all doable with this talent. Drop one point in this and have fun.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
c. Beast Mastery
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These talents enhance your Aspects and boost your pet’s abilities, turning it
into your personal killing machine. Of course, this tree won’t leave you in
the dirt. There are plenty of talents that enhance your own abilities as well.
---------------------------
Improved Aspect of the Hawk
---------------------------
EFFECT: While Aspect of the Hawk is active, all normal ranged attacks have a
10% chance of increasing ranged attack speed by 3/6/9/12/15% for 12 sec.
POINTS: 5/5
TIER: 1
OVERVIEW: No matter which tree you decide to specialize in, this is a great
talent to invest in. Think of it as a mini-Rapid Fire that occurs once every
ten shots.
------------------
Endurance Training
------------------
EFFECT: Increase the Health of your pets by 2/4/6/8/10% and your total Health
by 5%.
POINTS: 5/5
TIER: 1
OVERVIEW: More Health is never a bad thing for a pet, especially with their
ability to serve as solid tanks. Curiously, this ability seems to go hand in
hand with Survival talents since that tree focuses a lot on survival and
endurance.
------------
Focused Fire
------------
EFFECT: All damage caused by you is increased by 1/2% while your pet is active
and the critical strike chance of your Kill Command ability is increased by
10/20%.
POINTS: 2/2
TIER: 2
OVERVIEW: Although you don’t get Kill Command until level 66, being able to
inflict more damage just for having your pet out is never a bad thing. Once
you do get Kill Command, you’ll be more than happy to have this talent,
especially if your pet’s damage gets boosts from other Beast Mastery talents.
