The Hunter<br />
The hunter is a unique class in World of Warcraft because it is primarily a ranged<br />
attacker. Even though other classes can learn to use ranged weapons, none of them<br />
is as proficient in their deadly use as the hunter. To support the hunter's ranged<br />
attacks, this class has two main advantages: a loyal pet and a wide array of<br />
movement-restricting spells.<br />
Allowable Races: Dwarf, Night Elf, Tauren, Orc, Troll<br />
Primary Attributes: Agility, Spirit, Intellect, Stamina<br />
Common Weapon Skills: One-Handed Axes or Daggers, Guns or Bows,<br />
Unarmed<br />
Advanced Weapon Skills: Crossbows, Fist weapons, Spears, Staves,<br />
One-Handed Swords, Two Handed Swords, Thrown, Two-Handed Axes<br />
Armor Proficiencies: Cloth, Leather, Mail (Advanced)<br />
Class Abilities<br />
The hunter is a combat class, like the rogue and warrior, but whereas those classes<br />
rely on melee attacks, the hunter relies on ranged power. It does have spellcasting<br />
ability, but the hunter's spells are supportive ones, used to enhance the hunter's<br />
natural abilities.<br />
To complement its ranged attacks, the hunter has a number of spells that imbue its<br />
gun or bow with additional damage, damage over time, or other magical effects.<br />
Hunters also have a unique line-of-buff spells he can cast only on himself, which are<br />
called aspects. These spells emulate features of certain beasts. The aspect of the<br />
cheetah spell, for instance, boosts the hunter's movement speed, while the aspect<br />
of the monkey increases its dodge ability.<br />
As a master of animals, the hunter also has a selection of beast control spells, in<br />
addition to spells that enhance his animal pet.<br />
Hunter Pets<br />
Pets are a key component of the hunter class. After the hunter gains some<br />
experience he can learn to tame the wild beasts of Azeroth. Using the beast taming<br />
spell, the hunter can select a beast in the wild and turn it into a loyal companion.<br />
The hunter's pet can then attack the hunter's target and keep it occupied while the<br />
hunter engages in ranged attacks.<br />
A hunter's pet must be kept happy, or it will leave you or even turn on you. A<br />
hunter's pet has a happiness rating that you can see by clicking on your faithful<br />
beast’s icon. As the pet fights, its happiness decreases, but happiness can be<br />
replenished by feeding your pet regularly.
