The hunter is one of the oldest classes in the game of Warcraft. They represent the old school mentality of power and skill that defined the vanilla players. The hunters of Warcraft are not merely a cookie cutter class. They are perhaps the only class that brings the allure of the game. You literally have to think like a hunter to play this class. Some players have expressed the necessity of using the environment to get an upper hand, and the Hunter class has proven to do just that.
Using your environment is key for the hunter in every theater of the game. Because hunters are a unique ranged DPS class in World of Warcraft, they were often regarded as OP (an over powered class) by other players. This QQ rose in symphony prompting Blizz to nerf the class significantly in Wrath expansion. Many hunter class players argued that hunters are the sole non-magical ranged damage-dealers, fighting with only bows and guns. The argument won hunters some of their old glory as Blizz introduced some tweaks to the hunter class in Cataclysm.
If you are still deciding on what class to play, you should seriously consider the noble hunter. The Hunter, a damage class, is a combination of the marksman/archer classes that are familiar in most other RPGs. In WoW, the hunters and their pets make a formidable pair that can do well in any aspect of the game, from raiding to PvP. Class "balance” has always been something that the WoW developers strive for, and the hunters are a unique class that has proven to have a slight advantage as a result of their performance. In every scenario, the ability to shoot a rival at long distance is going to be an advantage.
As we approach the upcoming new expansion, what can we learn from the hunter class and what can we look forward to in regarding this highly specialized class? Perhaps the hints at Blizcon give us some clues. The hunter class performs pulling, threat redirection, crowd control, and primarily ranged DPS. Developers touched on a long rumored specialized hunter class that has largely been speculation until now. The Demon Hunter was mentioned during the Blizzcon discussion panel but didn’t really go into juicy detail. Could this be an option for those hunter class lovers? And some fear it will simply be another stumbling block for the traditional hunter class. Time will tell.
