Holy traps batman

[Areox]

People seem to be walking over my traps repeatedly, without them setting off. Did they increase the arming time(which i think is stupid anyways)? Anyone else having this problem? Its bad enough that I have to scatter, then land the trap, but for it to not even go off...its just frustrating.

[Malgru]

Haven't been having this problem, but just FYI to all hunters out there... petpassive --> intimdation --> focus blinkstrike --> trap off stun gg.

edit: warr just walked over a snake trap, the snakes attacked the hpala on the other side of the map..

Yeah Op, same thing happened to me: I got scattershot by a hunter and he layed down a trap, it didnt activate. Lol.

[Illana]

i've noticed it too. It's more to do with the arming time rather than the radius I think.

Think the arm time was extended, intentionally or unintentionally we will never know

Buff hunters!

I despise BM and am not playing it

[Sarevoc]

I noticed this today, and I'm also having problems with my pet getting stuck at places where it shouldn't happen. For example in the center of Eye of the Storm or at the Farm Flag in Arathi...

Also, thx to Blizzard for cheating us by taking aways the Glyph of Concussive Shot for no reason. It wasn't even a nerf, it was just an oversight after reverting the failed merge of arcane shot and concussive shot in MoP beta, that's the sad part. Without this glyph, playing a hunter in PvP is only half as much fun as it was.

QQ more. Hunters are OP, crying about anything should honestly get all of you laughed at. Brb while I go do pvp and watch BM hunters macro CDs and kill everything. Delete this mongoloid spec if they aren't going to fix it. Watching all these backpedaling, FoTM hunters is BS. Then I armory them and sure enough they are high rated despite being backpedaling, keyboard turning baddies that have no place in high end arenas, yet are currently there due to being extremely imba.

Also, lol hunter pvp is only half as much fun now cause of some glyph? Please, if you think being OP one-shot macroing people is fun, I'd hate to see what you think of balanced gameplay and how fun that is.

Sure, my stampede will kill you. Maybe lynx rush too.

But when my cds are down? I will smack you in the face with some 14k (CRIT) arcane shots.

I hit harder in 4.3 with arcane shot.

also, what's the point of damage if you can't CC during it?

just because one part of the class is unbalanced doesn't mean it justifies breaking other parts.

Does this have anything to do with the topic?

No, but I had to take out my hunter rage somewhere. Didn't feel like finding the appropriate topic, the first hunter thread I saw served just fine. :P

I always thought scatter trap was the most annoying CC of all, am I correct in thinking its the longest pvp CC outside of fears?

I certainly wouldn't miss it if it was stopped.

you would be correct, however it has a 30 second cooldown unlike all the other "long" ccs like poly and fear.

not denying it's not a good cc, it's one of the best but its also quite easy to stop if you know how

Or unlucky for that matter, which as noted in above posts, seems to be happening quite often to me. I"m noticing it with all traps, Explosive going off but not activating any knockback at all with enemies surrounding it. All traps literally being walked over when the arm time should've have been done for at least a second or 2. Scatter pathing still being really annoying and making traps miss. And then the radius at which it arms, which absolutely has changed.

I"m not saying that hunters aren't strong or anything like that, the point of the thread is to discuss this annoying QoL issue that is plaguing us. Also, as Illana said, stop saying Hunters are OP, BM is OP/Very Strong right now along with a multitude of other specs. Unfortunately, I don't care for the feel of BM in PvP and have gone back to try to make Marks work again. It still feels really good playing, just needs some damage tweeks.

Remove traps from BM hunters!

[Malgru]

Remove traps from BM hunters!

Remove Cyclone from druids!
Remove Strangulate from DKs!
Remove Poly from mages!
Remove HOJ from pallies!
Remove fear from priests!
Remove blind from rogues!
Remove Hex from shamans!
Remove fear from warlocks!
Remove fear from warriors!

Scatter trap is actually our only cc. ONLY.

[Vvulf]

Yes, I noticed it a few days ago. People walking right through traps that have been on the ground for 2 seconds already. No, I'm not including DKs with AMS up or bubble/freedom'ed paladins. Characters with no reason to have avoided the trap are just walking right through.

BM burst might have needed a nerf, but sustained damage is absolute crap. Survival isn't really viable in arena (BGs it's fine) although it's the only spec that can now benefit from Entrapment (which tbh, all hunters need to be effective in pvp). MM pvp - lol.

Hunters have one glass cannon spec for arena, and as people get used to dealing with the burst, you'll see the ratings numbers for hunters overall drop. Sure, some really good hunters will still manage to get good ratings, but honestly Hunter isn't a very strong pvp class atm (now that spirit mend was nerfed by 75%).

Check out Swifty's latest burst video before complaining that BM Hunter burst is OP (nerf hunter's my a$$, nerf Resto Druid, lol):
