------------
ACTION: Command your pet to intimidate the target on the next successful melee
attack, causing a high amount of threat and stunning the target for 3 sec.
RANGE: 100 yards
CASTING TIME: Instant
COOLDOWN: 1 min.
NOTE: This move is accessible only through its respective talent.
LEVEL RANK MANA CHANGE
30 n/a 8% n/a
OVERVIEW: This is a great ability to have around, especially if it’s chained
with a stunning Concussive Shot. In PvE, it’s especially good because it
causes high threat, which is a nice way of keeping mobs glued to your pet.
The only drawback is its 1-minute cooldown but whenever it’s up, it’s a great
ability.
------------
Kill Command
------------
ACTION: Give the command to kill, causing your pet to instantly attack for an
additional 127 damage. Can only be used after the Hunter lands a critical
strike on the target.
RANGE: 45 yards
CASTING TIME: Instant
COOLDOWN: 5 sec
LEVEL RANK MANA CHANGE
66 1 75 Bonus damage set to 127.
OVERVIEW: This is somewhat of an opposite of Mongoose Bite. It’s usable only
after you land a critical strike, and it triggers your 1.5-second global
cooldown, which makes it questionable at times, but regardless, it has a
relatively low mana cost, and although the tooltip doesn’t indicate any level
of threat, I’ve seen my pet take aggro with this ability.
--------
Mend Pet
--------
ACTION: Heals your pet 20 health every second while you focus. Lasts 5 sec.
RANGE: 20 yards
CASTING TIME: 5 sec. (channeled)
COOLDOWN: 1.5 sec global
LEVEL RANK MANA CHANGE
12 1 50 Healing starts at 20 health/sec.
20 2 90 Healing increased to 38 health/sec.
28 3 155 Healing increased to 68 health/sec.
36 4 225 Healing increased to 103 health/sec.
44 5 300 Healing increased to 142 health/sec.
52 6 385 Healing increased to 189 health/sec.
60 7 480 Healing increased to 245 health/sec.
68 8 620 Healing increased to 327 health/sec.
OVERVIEW: This move provides a lot of healing over time, and will quickly
ready your pet between fights. The only downside is that its range is
limited, and it eats up a lot of mana. There are also many moments where
your pet will take such a beating that your healing can’t outweigh the
amount of damage it’s receiving. Use it when you have to but watch your
mana.
----------
Revive Pet
----------
ACTION: Revive your pet, returning it to life with 15% of its health.
RANGE: n/a
CASTING TIME: 10 sec
COOLDOWN: 1.5 sec. global
NOTE: You receive this skill as a quest reward.
LEVEL RANK MANA CHANGE
10 n/a 80% n/a
OVERVIEW: This spell costs a whole lot of mana. It’s this expensive mana
cost that encourages you to keep your pet alive, in addition to having to
feed it.
-----------
Scare Beast
-----------
ACTION: Scares a beast, causing it to run in fear for up to 10 sec. Damage
caused may interrupt the effect. Only one beast can be feared at a time.
RANGE: 10 yards
CASTING TIME: 1.5 sec
COOLDOWN: 30 sec
LEVEL RANK MANA CHANGE
14 1 35 Fear time starts at 10 sec.
30 2 50 Fear time increased to 15 sec.
45 3 75 Fear time increased to 20 sec.
OVERVIEW: Oftentimes, there are so many ways to control your aggro that you’ll
find yourself not using this move very often but for those times where you
need to get a Beast-type mob or enemy Hunter’s pet away from you, this is the
move to use. Oh and it also lasts for a really long time.
------------------
Tranquilizing Shot
------------------
ACTION: Removes one Frenzy effect from the target.
RANGE: 8-35 yards
CASTING TIME: Instant
COOLDOWN: 20 sec
NOTE: You may only learn this move through its respective Tome.
LEVEL RANK MANA CHANGE
60 n/a 270 n/a
OVERVIEW: You can only learn this move through a book that drops from Lucifron,
the first boss of Molten Core. The biggest misconception with this ability is
how some players presume that it can remove Enrage effects, which it doesn’t
do. Its only use is to remove Frenzy effects from specific raid bosses such as
Magmadar. Since few things outside of raid instances have Frenzy effects, you
won’t find many uses for it.
===============================================================================
----------------------------[ V. Hunter Talents ]------------------------------
===============================================================================
What will set you apart from every other Hunter are the talents you invest in
your talent trees. These enhance your current moves and gives you access to
new ones based on whatever tree your talent points into. Here is a breakdown
of the Hunter’s available talents.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
a. Marksmanship
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The majority of these talents will affect whatever abilities are based
upon your ranged weapon. Investing your talents in this tree will
enhance your overall DPS, and will provide you with two spell interrupts.
This is an ideal tree for PvE.
------------------------
Improved Concussive Shot
------------------------
EFFECT: Gives your Concussive Shot a 4/8/12/16/20% chance to stun your
target for 3 seconds.
POINTS: 5/5
TIER: 1
OVERVIEW: When this triggers, it buys you a little bit of time to freely blast
your target, and by luck, you can interrupt a caster’s spell. It is a good
talent but oftentimes, you never expect it to trigger. It just comes as a
complete surprise when it actually pops. Still, when it does happen, you’ll
usually be glad that it does.
------------
Lethal Shots
------------
EFFECT: Increases your chance to land a critical strike with your ranged
weapon by 1/2/3/4/5%.
POINTS: 5/5
TIER: 1
OVERVIEW: It’s hard to find a hunter who wouldn’t enjoy this talent. No matter
how you spread out your talent points, you should invest a good five points
into this one. This is well-beloved talent that you will surely have fun with.
----------------------
Improved Hunter’s Mark
----------------------
EFFECT: Cause 20/40/60/80/100% of your Hunter’s Mark ability effect to apply
to melee attack power as well.
POINTS: 5/5
TIER: 2
OVERVIEW: The power of this talent is oftentimes overlooked. Since you would
want to use Hunter’s Mark on everything you attack, it’s essentially a 110
boost in attack power for your pet.
----------
Efficiency
----------
EFFECT: Reduces the mana cost of your Shots and Stings by 2/4/6/8/10%.
POINTS: 5/5
TIER: 2
OVERVIEW: This talent helps reduce your overall downtime, and can buy you a
few extra Shots and Stings before running out of mana, which is especially
great for PvP. It’s often overlooked, however, because of a hunter’s ability
to simply Feign Death and drink while in combat, but you usually don’t have
that kind of luxury in PvP.
-----------------
Go For The Throat
-----------------
EFFECT: Your ranged critical hits cause your pet to generate 25/50 Focus.
POINTS: 2/2
TIER: 3
OVERVIEW: Pets don’t get much attention when it comes to managing Focus. Even
though they regain Focus quickly, they can use it up in only a few seconds.
This talent can help offset that a little bit. Little abilities such as Claw
and Bite may be weak compared to yours but that bit of DPS can add up.
----------
Aimed Shot
----------
EFFECT: Grants you access to the move Aimed Shot.
POINTS: 1/1
TIER: 3
OVERVIEW: Even though Arcane Shot has surpassed Aimed Shot in viability, Aimed
Shot is still an excellent ability to have. Many hunters who do not specialize
in Marksmanship still invest their points in the tree for this talent.
--------------------
Improved Arcane Shot
--------------------
EFFECT: Reduces the cooldown of your Arcane Shot by 0.2/0.4/0.6/0.8/1.0
seconds.
POINTS: 5/5
TIER: 3
OVERVIEW: One whole second may not seem like a lot but in a game like
this, it makes all the difference, especially when you’re running.
Don’t overlook this talent.
-------------
Rapid Killing
-------------
EFFECT: Reduces the cooldown of your Rapid Fire ability by 1 min. In addition,
after killing an opponent that yields experience or honor, your next Aimed
Shot, Arcane Shot, or Auto Shot causes 10% additional damage. Lasts 20 sec.
POINTS: 2/2
TIER: 3
OVERVIEW: This talent is excellent if you use Rapid Fire a lot to maximize DPS,
and it’s especially great in PvP, where you can rack up kills in quick
succession. As for its other bonus, it may make you feel rushed since you’d
have to quickly loot your kill, maybe skin it, and move onto the next target
before the effect wears off, hence the name “Rapid Killing.”
---------------
Improved Stings
---------------
EFFECT: Increases the damage done by your Serpent Sting and Wyvern Sting by
6/12/18/24/30%, increases the mana drained by your Viper Sting by
6/12/18/24/30%, and reduces the chance Stings will be dispelled by
6/12/18/24/30%.
POINTS: 5/5
TIER: 4
