Modern PvP: Your Hunter Can Rule
Player versus Player (PvP) combat is in your Hunter’s future, even if you’ve avoided it so far. Wrath of the Lich King (WotLK) has brought more advanced, real time battles to the game.
The first real time PvP battle zone is Lake Wintergrasp. There players go at it on the live server (no instancing) to earn points that allow them to buy a wide variety of special items such as the new Heirloom items that any of the player’s characters in that account from level 1 to 80 and beyond can use.
Given the popularity of Lake Wintergrasp and the increasing amount of PvP combat in other popular games, you’ll surely see more even more PvP in WoW in the future. Here’s what you need to know to handle your Hunter in this new world:
Playing a Hunter class character in World of Warcraft Player versus Player combat requires many of the same skills real hunter possess. You need to be able to quickly pick out a target and understand its likely behavior so you can anticipate what it will do next. In addition, you need to know your own capabilities and the capabilities of your gear. And you need to be able to maneuver into the optimal position to take out your target without becoming a target yourself.
But playing a hunter in PvP involves much more than that. Understanding the best time to deploy your Freezing and Frost Traps and essential crowd control devices is necessary but not enough. You need to know how to maintain the ideal distance between you and your prey to cause the most possible DPS damage in each battle. And you must do all this against an intelligent character, rather than a wild animal.
If you want to be really successful in Hunter PvP combat, you need to know the strategy and tactics for killing each class of opponent. In particular you need to understand how Druids, Warriors, and Rogues are most likely to approach you. And you need to know how to respond against those classes that can charge into melee combat range quickly, such as Warriors and Rogues.
You can learn much of what you need to win as a Hunter in PvP simply by spending time in the arena. But I can tell you from personal experience that if you try, you had better be prepared to get crushed and humiliated for a long time. I spent many frustrating hours ranking last or near last in the standings when I tried. Once I started reading a Hunter PvP Guide, I started climbing in the standings rapidly.
Even if you do decide to learn the ins and outs of Hunter PvP combat yourself, you’ll find that a quality PvP Guide will contain information that you’re unlikely to discover on your own. It will teach you the most important things to know, saving you a big block of time you would otherwise have to spend dying in battle before you become good at PvP combat.
