The first live podcast from a couple weekends back, with special guest Hrist himself! We interviewed the hate tank, took questions live, and generally bungled our way through the live experience!
As I mentioned earlier, we have a new site! www.huntingpartypodcast.com, for all you hunting party podcast needs. Our live shows will be hosted there when we start them!
As always, here is the iTunes store link, the Hunting Party Podcast feed, and the direct XML feed. If you email us comments or questions, we’ll read them on the next show. Send an email to [email protected] Also, we love iTunes reviews. Frost, in particular, watches them for mentions of the words “uncommonly” and “good looking”, and performs Fourier analysis on the frequency. Keep him busy, we’re safer that way.

Thanks for letting us know about the podcast. I know a lot of us wanted to listen but weren’t around when it was live.
One point, when one of the other guys was talking, he was complaining about DK tanks, and that seems pretty common these days. I have one, and it’s actually incredibly hard to tank with one. Not to the affect that it’s difficult to hold threat, as that part is actually quite easy. Bliz won’t let them hold shields, so they have to rely on avoidance and a few abilities in order to evade damage. They aren’t clicking the buttons to get into instances. Any new tank just has to sell his soul to a blacksmith in order to get enough defense blues to hit the defense cap and this will still only give him between 22-25k health. This puts them in the awkward position of having to do heroics to improve their gear, and having to deal with everyone’s shit from being ‘undergeared’.
And we wonder why there’s a freaking tank shortage.
Awesome, I missed the first 20 minutes or so, so this will be nice to give a listen. I wish I hadn’t missed the one saturday, but I had a drunken bowling date with my coworkers on the bosses dime! yay!

I felt a need to mention the words “uncommonly good looking” so I wrote a poem to my favorite hunter:
Ode to a uncommonly good looking Huntsman:
From the darkest of dungeons in old Azeroth
Comes a lingering whisper that fills every spot
“Beware of the hunter with his beard and his gun,
Rest assure that he is wicked and up to no fun”
To all the beasts and dragons out there,
the damage he does is truly severe.
And even at rest, enjoying his stout
Letting the golden brew fill his mouth
He still thinks of ways to increase the pain,
Marvelous tricks that more damage will gain.
Once admitted, and forever a DPS-whore,
more addicted to damage than to the Molten Core.
He would sell his mother to enchant his wrist
Even take a swing at his best friend Hrist
If he for a minute would start to believe,
that more damage it would make him achieve.
But switch to a bow and sacrifice his gun,
will never happen, no matter the damage done!
Cheers M8, thx for all the good work!
I would love to see some testing of wasp vs wolf as you mentioned frost.
Thank you for answering my question; happy to be part of the 1% that leaves a comment.
I think hate must be a tank thing; my guild tanks all sound just like Hrist.
Is it really pronounced “Doon more-ogg”?
