Comments on: A Very Odd Opponent http://www.warcrafthuntersunion.com/2009/12/an-interesting-opponent/ A gathering place for WoW hunters who have paid their dues Wed, 08 Feb 2012 17:57:47 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Talaramhttp://www.warcrafthuntersunion.com/2009/12/an-interesting-opponent/#comment-15349 Talaram Thu, 17 Jun 2010 13:48:42 +0000 http://www.warcrafthuntersunion.com/?p=3317#comment-15349 There's only one Horde Pally on there, and he's only 18. maybe he switched his name, race, or faction? Also, not only would a Frostheim-esque tank site be great, but oh what a wonderful, less noob filled world it would be if there were somehow such an in depth set of guides and info for every class. Hunter is one of my top favorite classes, mostly because of such a font of info and help such as this site provides. Warlocks, Death Knights, Druids, Warriors, Shamans, and Mages should be so luckey. (Did I forget Rogues, Pallys, and Preists? Hm, oh well. Lol.) There’s only one Horde Pally on there, and he’s only 18. maybe he switched his name, race, or faction?

However, if he feels that Tankspot could do better than him don't force him on something that he will not enjoy. Unless your TRYING to get his rage boiling 24/7. Interesting note that annoying Horde Pally that you apparently owned in that BG seems to not exist anymore. Guess he changed his name in shame after that #$* kicking. lol A Hrist tanking blog would be great if it was of the same quality as yours.

No good being able to dish out the damage if you can not stay long enough alive all arena players use resilence gear and the vendor in wintergrasp has some ok stuff to get you started which you trade for shards i think ( boots , helm and chest ) . In pvp its more about staying alive which deals more damage overall and resilence is a must if your serious. Jim

My hunter hit 80 yesterday and the best gear I have is the swiftarrow set. This is beginning PvP and is not doing my DPS any favors (although I hit 2.1k in heroic CoT which was my first heroic after hitting 80!). My PvP strategy is to hang in the back and pick off the low HP or squishy targets -- I never get tired of ciritcal Kill Shots :D. Anyway, this strategy lends itself to not being hit much (until the mage I popped off three times in a row comes back for hunter revenge). I'm toying with running PvP with DPS PvE gear instead... just to maximize damage. Was wondering if you do the same. l8r! So Frost do you run PvP with ur uber PvE gear, or do u use a PvP set?

Every kid with an opinion can state it as ABSOLUTE FACT when given a medium to say what they think; 'Twins? WeCANNOT tank them on top of each other. You just can't count on the DPS of our raid team to switch targets fast enough' 'lol tank twins in toc on top of each other and you get more damage if you dont your a nub twins is easymode kthxbai' The success of the WHU is because Frost has always had his posts as 'This is relevant to today, this is my opinion, this is what I believe'. You have always provided examples, following with 'This is the science I have tested with, feel free to do things your own way' A Hrist-based tanking guide/site would be very geared to the types of people that read your blog, using this formula. As long as you can talk him into it ;) Notable bias : My 2760 GS tank is a Warrior, RagingDaddy! :) The problem with tankspot, is that it is Forum-Oriented.

I hope not. I aspire to the ranks of Hirst tanking, but my tank has a blue bar, not a red one. I think Hate is just being efficient. Is rage required to be a hate tank? I hope not.
