Another Hunter nerf

Pets no longer receive World buffs. What are the Devs even doing? Did a Hunter touch you in your no no area? We’re the most nerfed class in such a short space of time.

Lone Wolf got nerfed pre launch
Explosive shot nerf
Chimera shot nerf
Scorpid pet nerf
Pet Scaling nerf
Kill Command nerf
And now pets can’t receive WBs but they can in classic era.

This isn’t a season of discovery for Hunters, we’re pretty much just playing classic era again but with some below par Runes. GGWP.

Looks like a skill issue to me

Could be worse - you could be a shaman (near bottom of the class list, yet still appears to have receieved a nerf)

Indeed, I used renew rank 1, thats my bad.

Where are these documented? And this new change?
Why are devs ninja updating the game?
Oh it’s right there on the US forum.

Gosh darnit…

Now i want to find out if Blizzard are actively employing ninjas as developers… :sweat_smile:

Pet scaling was nerfed a while back. They no longer scale with the Hunters AP

good but still not enough, the pet is still too powerful.

My friend, anyone with a big brain only needs to cc/slow WS or full nuke in group PvP and then Hunter dies easily

Welcome to the world of “not completely batsh*t” broken classes.
No sympathy from me. And it’s still pretty strong all things considered.

You kill 3 players in the timespan of killing 1 stupidly tanky and op hunter pet with 1.5x the hp, armor and resist of anyone.

thats why premades look to stack 3+ hunters in warsong?

PvP scenario: Pet arrives (from few yards away, LB for 400 crit). As priest, fear. You got 8s without pet, but hunter is attacking you and you dont have fear.

Dot dot, survive the hunter while wanding him because offensive casting is not an option.

8s has passed, pet gets out of fear, again, x2 LB for 400 and 300 while you get a multishot for 200 from the hunter; rip, skill issue.

Even hunter mains themselves admitted in this forum that pet with the WB is just broken, yet here you are. How delusional can you actually be?

I’m pleased that they are making balance changes but hoping they compensate in the other direction towards the hunter character.

its not balanced, hunter is still significantly stronger than shaman. (shaman that just got nerfed for no reason btw)

who?

who asked?

Also, as ex hunter main, I’d be ashamed of having my pet doing 90% of the job, because its like a NPC with no counterplay at all that does everything for me; so the difference from me and a pleb hunter is a meaningless 10%.

I don’t want to play a class where Rabbit seems as good as me just because a NPC is doing all the job.

As hunter, get some ego or self respect, ask for pet nerfs, outplay people with your own skill, git gud at huntering, and then talk about skill issues.

you’re claiming its balanced, and hunter should be compensated as a result. blatantly false.

To the priest and warlock here; skill issue. Get gud and get in a team that supports their healers
