Being "try-hard" with a hunter is piss easy:

Mongoose + ManaOils + Juju Intellect.
Later on you can add Mageblood Potions.

If you really wanna grind...the you would need more.

Scrolls of Agility + Blaster Land buff (for yourself)
Scroll of Strengh/Agility + Juju Power + Juju Might (for yar pet)
Add rums and Scroll of Stamina for you and yar pet.

Hunter is really cheap when it comes to consumables.

Keep in mind Juju should NOT stack with castable buffs (at least wowwiki says so).
I really hope the "buff stacking" is working properly here or you will be right and melees will dominate charts.
If "buff stacking" will be blizzlike, using a feral druid for "Leader of the Pack" in the hunter group will permit "us" (hunters) to compete for #1 DPS in the raid.
Sure, no TSA for melee...fuck melee....

EDIT:
You can add "Winter Squid" to the buff list (10 agi).
Hopefully it will work....not like on ED.

I think iirc, squids override mongoose/agi pots, not to mention seasonal catches are a pain in the ass.

I also know the tryhard consume list.

Mongoose pot
Int pot
Mageblood (zg release)
Major mana pots
Flask of wis
Zanza pots (zg bijous)
Scrolls of str/agi/stm/int
Heavy RC bandaids
Mana oil
Nightfin soup
Darkmoon fair buff (+10% dmg)
BL Scorpok Assay
Fire res pots
Rumsy rum
Dark runes
Tubers
Ungoro crystals
Savory Delights

You really only need about half of these tbh, and I left out jujus because only the melee ap and str for pet is worth your time (attack speed buff puts rapid fire on CD, int doesn't stack with mage int, and the rest are garbage for hunters in any regard). Also since raids might bully you into using a wolf for the melee party, getting dmging buffs when your pet acts like an imp is kinda silly.

My experience tells me that the Wisdom Flask is kinda useless.
Mana Oils + Mageblood + ManaPot/CD is enough for most fights.
You could farm some DarkRunes for the rare occasion you end up OOM, but that's it.
Till ZG you could use Nightfin or Sagefish to cover the Mageblood Pot, but probably, not really needed.

Zanza and Titan Flask could be usefull, but you mostly need them for AQ/Naxx.

Scrolls are for tryhard, same the Scorpok. Sure it's like (17+25)x2 AP, but you can manage without these 84AP.

About Jujus and Crystals:
Accordingly to wowwiki ( http://www.wowwiki.com/Useful_zone-spec ... did=307361 ), these should not stack with castable buffs.

It shouldn't. Food buff != pot buff. On Feenix this was broken. No idea if fishing even works on Nos, let alone seasonal lol

Back about the UG crystals, we normally only ever got the -200 armor ones, since others were useless (as you pointed out, as well as the site, the +spi doesn't stack with priest +spi). The others were also too minimal to be worth the farm. Then again, this whole 8 debuffs only shtick is really off putting for these kinds of things.

Nightfin > squid, regardless of it stacking with pots or not.

You should be able to use Nightfin and Squid/Sagefish at the same time.

^ I sure hope so, but I always assume the worst until tested. No need to get hopes up to be crushed later.

years after lol, but anyway.

All depends of stuff, with a T1 stuff Marskmanship is the best spec

With a T2+ stuff the Agility benefits from Survival is the best spec
