Warcraft Hunters Union is the internet blog home of Arust and Frostheim, two hunters from Icecrown. Here we blog about raids, questing, theorycraft, create hunter guides and gear guides, and discuss how to squeeze the last ounce of dps out of our class. The goal of the WHU is to help the hunter community improve performance with the aid of science, testing, and facts.

Warcraft Hunters Union is not a blog for every hunter, however. It is exclusively a community for those hunters who have paid their dues.
Hunters who pay their dues by being the only class in the game that must spend gold with every attack, in the form of ammo. Sometimes 20-30 gold worth in a single raid. And then we listen to mages complain about the cost of making a mage table, and refusing to deploy them in battlegrounds.
And WHU hunters also pay their dues by playing one of the easiest classes to solo play in PVE. I’m serious, this makes our lives hard. Our class is popular, and draws the worst of the worst to it, people both mechanically and socially inept. People call us huntards because of these morons. Hunter members of the WHU have to put up with this stigma every day – and any accomplishment we achieve is then perceived as a benefit of our class, rather than our skill, preparation, and hard work.
Our hunters pay their dues by rising above the huntards of the world. We know our class: we can kite, jump-shot, and chain trap effectively and reliably. We study the raid strategies and are prepared before hand. We show up to the raid early, with potions and food and pet food and the best possible gear that we can grind out and everything else we need.
Hunters in the Warcraft Hunters Union pay our dues by playing our class well, and playing the game well. The primary benefit of our membership dues is that we pwn.
