Hunter Hero talents prediction

Classes Hunter
1

Hey,

They’ve started revealing Hero talent trees already, and we’ll probably see the first Hunter ones after the holidays.

Here are my predictions

  1. Dark ranger will be MM/BM
  • Will revolve around Wailing arrow (hopefully makes it instant cast) as it’s a shared talent between MM/BM and fits the theme
  • Serpent sting becomes shadow damage
  • Arcane shot becomes shadow damage
  • All shadow damage increased
  • Gives the pet some undead look/attacks
  1. Pack leader will be BM/SV
  • Enhances the main pet
  • Focused on group buffs (similar to feral “Leader of the pack” buff) f.e. when kill command resets for SV or Barbed shot resets for BM, all party members gain a small buff
  1. Sentinel will be MM/SV
  • Enhanced death chakram
  • Focused on Mongoose bite/Aimed shot (physical damage as a whole)
  • Bleeds?
  • Better stealth?
  • Better traps?
    Overall this is the hardest one to predict, but the theme is stealth/ambush/agility/metal glaives

I really hope Dark Ranger doesn’t force MM/BM into the horrible wailing arrow playstyle, because nobody takes this dead talent

Having sentinel revolving around chakrams would be so cool, while you are at it give survival a choice between glaive toss and bomb :smiley:

I expect a MM design like:

1- Petless

2- Not dependent on Arcane Shot (I don’t like this skill whatsoever). Heavy hitter with Aimed Shot and Rapid Fire.

3- Fancy aoe. Not dependent on Volley, Multi-Shot etc.

4- Fancy utilites. Like better and useful version of Sentinel Owl.

I think it was MoP Hunter that had Glaive Toss as an ability. Wouldn’t be surprised if they brought that back.

It is coming back, apparently the covenent abilities are getting a make over on a few classes and that is one of them replacing the necrolord look.

In Wow lore sentinels are these night elf npcs:

that hold the 3-edged glaives that very much look like chakrams. And indeed next patch death chakram gets a metallic animation instead of the necrolord green one.

It’s returning, sorry took me a few mins to find the video;
