Cataclysm Class Preview: Hunter, X-53 Mount

[ketzil]

Flippin' Fantastic!

[etubrutei]

Additionally, hunters will now start with a race-appropriate pet at level 1 and will be able to tame a different pet at level 10 ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

[Irony]

Kinda lame, Trap launcher is neat with it being off the GCD but Cobra shot is for Bm (Bleh) and Camouflage seems... odd.

[Deleted]

I'm not a hunter so idk, but you guys seem alright with it :-) i guess its nice then :P

[Raur0s]

one talent to increase the cast time and an other talent to decrease it back

pretty damn good job...

[Elipium]

Focus FTW ;D

[Rifee]

Camoflage seems awesome for pvp. disengage, pop Camo and laught at the enemy trying to ranged snare you or finish yopu off from range. Then load up some burst and BAM.

Awesome.

[Velasco]

Heh, why did I know they will reintroduce Camouflage. Luckily they made it more balanced than it was originally intended.

Will it be a stealth like state? Unlikely, as melees can obviously attack them according to tooltip. I suspect it to be something inbetween, where the hunter is transparent and you may select him, but no nameplate will be shown, unless clicked.

And regarding the mount...I really ask myself what could have prevented the launch. That really sucks.

[wee]

most boring list of changes of all time....

Hardly any effort went into the new abilities at all. and once again....................99% aimed at pvp.

been same on all classes. face it, in blizz's eyes, pve is dead.

bring on Old Republic

Pisses me off hate the changes especially the pet at lvl 1 crap

[Spitbag]

The changes could be interesting but i fear the worst...

Would be a shame to dump my hunter after 5 yrs

[Mokona]

Disappointing.
Trap Launcher's cooldown should be lowered to 30, or at least 45 seconds and I still don't know how Camouflage works exactly. Is it actual stealth?

The rest is.. okay.. but still "meh".

[shockedandawed]

At first I really was like what then I thought hmmmmm how exactly will Camoflauge work...Will I be stealthed at a distance or what? I AM SO CONFUSED.

Cataclysm Class Preview: Hunter (Hunter Forums)
[blizzquote="Nethaera;http://blue.mmo-champion.com/t/24261186675/cataclysm-class-preview-hunter/"]

Camouflage (level 85): The hunter enters an obscured state that prevents him or her from taking ranged damage. The character would still be subject to melee or area-of-effect attacks, and dealing or taking damage will break the Camouflage effect. The hunter can move and set traps when under Camouflage, and will receive a damage bonus when attacking while under Camouflage (which will then break the effect).

So does that mean they can still be seen when under the effects of camouflage? So it's not like a rogues stealth?

[Leowyld]

I do like to melee with my hunter, so I am not thrilled with them removing melee abilities. I can cope with that, though, because the rest of the changes sound awesome!

[Televators]

This includes spells too. Maybe only spells that are more than 10 yards though.

Ranged damage =/= spell damage.

[treston323]

All very nice changes. Can't wait for the druid preview. Maybe they'll announce some worgen/troll forms?

[CenVan]

Hopefully it will look like a rogue looks in stealth, only you can spot them normally, you just can't attack them from range.

Seriously? SERIOUSLY?!

You get to be an actual hunter at level 1, with pet and ranged abilities and you COMPLAIN?!

God, screw you! I bet if someone offered you a bag of money you'd still whine like the spoiled brat you are!
