WHU Raids Thunder Bluff

Posted: by Frostheim in General, Videos

The WHU baby hunter guild finally targeted a horde city with the last raid of Wrath. On orders from the king we went to Thunder Bluff to kill Cairne. My big strategy for dealing with level 80 players defending was that our greatest weapon was our lag. So I told everyone to charge in with [...]

Tanks Ahoy!

Posted: by Arth in Pet Tanking, Videos

9-Man Sindragosa (Hunter Solo Tank – Patch 4.0.1) So the (admittedly sloppy) video above is from a few days ago, well after the 4.0.1 patch, and is my guild 9-manning Sindy with me tanking (and no other hunters).  Please excuse the multiple ice blocks, odd positioning, and general sloppiness of the fight.  We haven’t been [...]

WHU Guild vs The Outlands

Posted: by Frostheim in Videos

On Saturday the WHU Hunter Guild traveled to the Outlands to wreak some havoc. We started off by slaying a Fel Reaver — it took about 15 seconds. I really expected that one to be more challenging. We then headed over to the Dark Portal and took down wave after wave of demons, culminating in [...]

At long last, here is the new hunter song that I’ve been talking about, I Won’t Miss You. We focus a bit more about the pvp aspect of the game in this song (and it’s the focus of the video).  Music and vocals are by Balthazar, the same guy that did the singing for the [...]

WHU Brewfest

Posted: by Frostheim in Videos

The WHU Guild had a wee Brewfest party during the Hunting Party Podcast on Saturday. We mostly just hung out and drank, but we also did a couple of the Brewfest quests and we fought off the Dark Iron dwarves a few times. There were so many tankards flying that the Dark Iron dwarves were [...]

Pirate vs. Ninjas!

Posted: by Arth in General, Videos

So Frost is busy this week, leaving me to swoop in with the video. Frost will likely want to make his own soon, but this should keep everyone sated until that. For the past few events I’ve just been lending footage to Frost’s efforts, but it was fun to make a brand new video for [...]

WHU Level 30 Hunter Raid

Posted: by Frostheim in Videos

On Saturday night the WHU Dwarven Hunter Guild rocked out and marched on Blackrock Mountain to take down Overmaster Pyron. This was our first event with access to mounts, which was awesome. Many, many thanks to everyone who showed up and participated! Most epic-looking charge across the landscape yet, I think. Way back after the [...]

Dancing Fox!

Posted: by Frostheim in Videos

Note: okay, replaced the music and reuploaded again – hopefully we’re now working. The fox pet has, in addition to it’s standard special ability, a spell called “Play.” This is totally awesome. I wish all pets had a version of this.

Cataclysm Beta Hunter: Camouflage

Posted: by Frostheim in Videos

View all WoW Cataclysm hunter information Here. The level cap is 85 in the Cataclysm beta, and we finally have access to Camouflage. I have to say, for what is essentially a pure pvp ability– and I was a bit disappointed to learn our level 85 hunter ability was only for pvp — but despite [...]

New Multi-Shot AoE

Posted: by Frostheim in Videos

Here’s a quick look at how the new multi-shot aoe is working out for us. Right now it looks kind of like when aoeing quest mobs/soloing, MM has by far the best aoe. In instances with mobs that will be up for a while, SV may well have the best with the ability to put [...]

The Problem with the BM Rotation

Posted: by Frostheim in Videos

I’ve talked before about how the BM rotation feels too simple and easy in the current beta incarnation. I was a bit frustrated with a lot of comments that a simple rotation was fine as long as the dps was the same (and more on that concept tomorrow). I’m concerned I somehow failed to explain [...]

New Pet Skins in Cataclysm

Posted: by Frostheim in Videos

Over at WoW.com today: New Hunter Pet Skins in Cataclysm Beta. Note that the super special guy at the end has already been fixed in the beta in Friday’s patch (this is the problem with doing articles on the beta — by the time they’re actually published, info may have changed!).

YAAAAAHOOOOOOOOO!!

Posted: by Frostheim in Videos

SWEET BABY JESUS YES!!! Tom Cruise — use your witchcraft to put out the magical fire of AWESOMESAUCE!!!! In the current beta build there is… NO MINIMUM RANGE ON SHOTS!!!! After wrestling with some odd errors I was finally advised to delete some random folders here and there and got into the beta… rushes to [...]

The quintissential BM hunter ability — bestial wrath/beast within — has changed a bit in the current version of the Cataclysm beta. When you (or your pet) are big and red, you are no longer immune to crowd control. For the time being, big red pet still breaks you out of crowd control. Certainly the [...]

A look at soloing as a BM hunter in the Cataclysm beta, at level 80. I apparently picked a good place, since those mobs were respawning like crazy at one point and I was getting jumped from every side. Shows the BM focus regen pretty well, and ability to shoot on the move. I particularly [...]
