Hunter spreadsheet results is a topic that I get a lot of email on, and recent discussions of how ICC loot affects MM vs SV has sparked these questions into overdrive. I feel like spreadsheets are massively misunderstood, frequently misused, and I’d like to take a moment to explain what they do as well as [...]

It’s a crazy weekend full of posts. If I was a bit smarter I’d probably save them for the Christmas holiday and schedule them to go live one a day during the break. Ah well. Hunting Party Podcast episode 17 is here! I think this is one of the best shows yet, and we had [...]
Click to embiggen I have to apologize to Shadowstreak for this – I thought this was a fun way to introduce AFK Rogue, but ended up with a much longer strip than I had intended. However, I’m absolutely delighted with the end result!
High Priest Thekal in Zul’Gurub drops the coveted rare Swift Zulian Tiger mount. He’s a fairly straight-forward fight and not terribly difficult. And with the 3-day reset timer, you can farm him twice a week. Personally, I think the Swift Zulian Tiger is one of the more distinctive and attractive of the rare mounts. YouTube [...]
Bloodlord Mandokir in Zul’ Gurub drops the rare Raptor mount. He’s entirely soloable for a hunter, but has a couple tricks up his sleeve that you should be aware of.

Attumen the Huntsman drops one of the coveted rare mounts: his horse, Midnight. Fortunately for hunters seeking this mount, Attumen is very easy to solo, and is located right at the beginning of Karazhan.

I love my Shatter Rounds to death. The dps boost may very well be bigger than any single 1 tier upgrade I can get. Perhaps better than two. Spreadsheets say they’re about 150dps better than Mammoth Cutters. Raiding without ‘em is worse than raiding without a flask. Yes, they are better than a flask. They’re [...]
Well, it’s a new patch and once again we need to take a look at where the different specs stand in relation to each other. The patch only brought us a couple of changes that directly affect our dps. These are: Culling the Herd: this new pet talent boosts the dps of our pet and [...]
The Gunship Battle is the third boss encounter in Icecrown Citadel. The fight is pretty easy and massively fun for all involved. This strat guide focuses on the hunter perspective. For a complete raid strat I recommend Tankspot’s Gunship Battle Video. The value of actually seeing a video of a fight cannot be overstated. In [...]
For much of the last several days I have been like a 5-year old at the grocery store, tugging on Hrist’s pantleg and asking, “Can I have it? Please? Can I? Huh? Huh?” Specifically I had calculated that if we reset our 10-man raid twice after clearing the pre-Marrowgar trash, our raid team would reach [...]
