Daihachiro's Guide to raiding (Patch 1.11. And earlier )
Posted: Thu Apr 02, 2015 1:01 pm
Howdy
Please note this is for the upcoming Patch 1.11. It will still be useful now but there might be some items not existing yet
This is a guide that I hope will help alot of hunters .
Raiding in vanilla WoW on retail was pretty much the blind leading the blind . Sure some hunters were playing good and helping the raid/ guild alot but It wasnt until a horde hunter called Lactose started breaking down the hunter mechanics
Figuring out DPS , Crit chance , Pet damage , BiS gear and weapons and so on . We might still be low sometimes on DPS meters but after Lactose we were more then just kite and tranq bots.
Lactose along with hunters like Rangerr and Dysphoria showed what the class could do and 10 years later is why I still play hunter as my main .
This is the first version of the guide , if there are mistakes please help me to fix them and Im sure in the end
we will have something we can use for raiders and new players alike
( if somebody wants to help me figure out the exact % Crit on weapons with enchants let me know s )
