Daddy blizz please,
don’t force me to raid/pvp as surv/MM - I want to play BM but we need a buff.
You buffed paladins, now buff us.
I’ll send pics of my feet if you do.

At least you have other specs that are good, some classes don’t have that.
Specs? According to WC Logs MM are only one step above BM for damage.
Hunter is pretty good compared to other classes. Even if you don’t want to play the good spec.
Compared to what Classes? If you were to say Druids & Warriors, I would completely agree, they deserve a buff as well, i’m glad you support the idea.
As for “the good spec”, Surv literally only outperforms the other specs due to bugs- stacking of multiple rank dots, and its main ability proccing more than 3 times as much as it should. Do you think bugs like these are a good thing?
I don’t want to see Surv fixed as it’s better to have one mid-tier spec than three bottom tier specs, but you must be able to see that class balance is way off compared to this point in original Wrath.

This point? Buddy, the horrorshow we are playing atm aint near the old experience. Its a different game now.
Liked the old game better, too much junk added now
Personally I like that BM is worthless. BM being the god-tier spec of all of TBC was the worst part of TBC for me.
Hunter has always been the game’s tutorial class, there should never have been a time where hunter was also the game’s strongest class.

I always figured Warrior was the tutorial class. Always seems to be the default in most RPG’s. Most people I know started the game as a Warrior, normally human.
BM were a tad overpowered in TBC but finding that the worst part in a very flawed expansion seems pretty odd. The steam tonk bug should have been fixed though.

Warrior is the ‘basic’ class, rather than the tutorial. There’s a new game, you don’t know what anything is and can’t be bothered to research the lore behind individual classes or roles? Just go warrior and hit stuff.
Hunter is the class that you’d use to learn the game and it’s mechanics, given how forgiving it is and how easy it is to solo things; even as a new player. You don’t have to mess around with stances or clunky rage mechanics, there’s noneed to make weapon/shield swpa macros and the only things that add ‘difficulty’ to your class (melee-weaving and trap weaving) are completely unneccessary outside of top-level play.
Sometimes flaws to games are what add their charm, I loved Classic for it’s many flaws.
But there was absolutely nothing charming or fun about the literaly 1-button spec also being the strongest spec in the game. That was stupid beyond belief.
And why pro-Wotlk should suffer for another expansion that they like and don’t play ?
Idc about TBC so, no reason to let BM suffering like that.
Difficulty is what you make of it. Sure you can set your pet on a yellow mob & auto shot, alternatively you can try red elite quests, or solo dungeons (which is what bm is best for these days), pvp is trickier for Hunters than most other classes.
It’s true basic play is easy & forgiving, but also you have vast toolkit all of which comes in useful in some way. Like I say though, I know far more people who learnt on Warriors than any other class.
As for the one button macro, I don’t think that even worked with the newer macro system used in classic TBC, at least I don’t know anyone that used it. Even in original TBC it was a big dps loss to use it, getting even bigger as you geared up.
It’s true the BM rotation in TBC was simple, but there were 9 separate rotations depending on varying levels of haste, with bloodlust, rapid fire, IAoTH, DST, pots, etc to account for.
Adding melee weaving to the mix, BM Hunter was far from easy to play at a decent level.
Yup I agree, I don’t think performance in another expansion should affect class balance now. It’s like saying Warriors were OP in Classic so should be nerfed two expansions later.
