Hunter was the first toon I ever rolled. Been my main since i started playing. Yes changing from feral to resto is like changing classes. But changing from dps feral to boomy isnt. Its not much different from changing hunter specs. Gotta learn a whole new way to play. As far as gear? Yeah you gotta have different gear. But the gear I need as SV and the gear I should have for MM are different. I can use some of the same gear but not all of it. My gear which is 98% optimal for SV only lists as 57% optimal for my MM spec.
