Howdy everybody, here we have the Blue posts and class discussions for the weekend and today. Druids, Warriors, Death Knights, and Hunters all got a little something their way.
Druids
As far as the previous poster who likes the Feral as the tank / dps hybrid, I don’t think anything we’re doing will really hurt that. You [...]

Hunter & Warlock - Pet management
There are 2 additional slots in the stable. Integrating hunter / warlock pet management into the new mount and companion UI has certainly come up already. Let’s give the new UI a whirl and see if it works and then we can consider if it makes sense to integrate the [...]

All of this looks like great news for Hunters. I’m still not sold on the 51pt Beast Mastery talent, but then again I can only assume that all my BM hunters out there are doing backflips over taming a Devilsaur.
Stable slots are getting expanded, on the fly stables slots as well perhaps?
Master’s Call will be [...]

Currently the pet/mount tabs are bugged to all hell but they should be hotfixed soon according to Tigole on the official Beta Forums. Otherwise here’s a glimpse at the interface where you can store/choose your mounts and vanity pets. I notice in the screenshot too there is a tab just called “pets” perhaps Hunters will [...]

Howdy everybody. It’s the end of a Monday for the most part and here is your daily dose of blue posts that you may have missed over the weekend. Sorry it’s taken me so long to get this up today but I’ve been pretty swamped.
First up we have more Death Knight comments. Expect this to [...]

It’s not really anything astronomical, but with the onset of Wrath of the Lich King it only makes sense that Wowhead would begind developing this kind of calculator. In WotLK Hunter pets (as announced in the WWI) will have their own talent trees that will follow a Tanking/DPS/Utility format. More on this in a later [...]

Priests actually need a lot of love. They’re a class that’s always been hands down meant to be the best healer and yet they’re pretty underrepresented in the end game raiding scene where a resto shaman, paladin, or druid can pick up the slack and outperform with certain spells. Luckily it seems that all around [...]

I’m almost tempted to not post this due to the audio quality. But I have to admit that the Huntology and pretty much all things Fubarius has entertained me greatly. There really aren’t many good machinimas out there at this time. All the big hitters are on their own little projects and the only thing [...]

So this is just for the Hutners out there. Blizzard clearly doesn’t have to explain themselves when they make a class change, hell most of the time they don’t and say something like “The developers felt this change had to go through and we don’t have any plans at this time to XYZ”
However with the [...]

A bunch of my hunter friends are going nuts over this new change in Patch 2.4.2 which I really don’t seem to understand. Obviously the change to Scare Beast is amazing. It’s now instant cast, has a 30yrd too, basically they’re right; hunters might become the anti-druid in Arena combat. But druids are getting all [...]

Boubouille over at MMO-Champions managed to do something or another on what seems to be a private server. Either that or somehow changed the skin on his bow to simulate the new legendary bow Thori’dal, the Star’s Fury. This guy is 100% just about all the time and to his credit I have yet to [...]

There was some confusion where Hunters were thinking that Hunter’s Mark could be bugged but apparently it’s not. Players with improved hunter’s mark were worried that a hunter without the spell talented would overwrite the debuff.
This is working correctly, once improved hunter’s mark is on a target any Hunter’s mark (improved or not) will [...]

For those that don’t know, there’s a current bug that can be exploited by the hunter snake trap. On a PVE server it really becomes an issue as a hunter can drop a snake trap and if you walk over it (activating it) then you will be attacked by the snakes but he will remain [...]

 
Legendary Ranged Weapon
    There’s no confirmation as of yet I can find where it WILL drop from one of the bosses in patch 2.4’s Sunwell Plateau (25 man raid) but Kil’Jaden would be the best candidate.
Thyvene (EU forum CM) who posted excerpts of 2.4 patch notes last week just confirmed that a legendary ranged weapon [...]
