WoW = definately NOT "wow"

Mage easily outdamages a hunter. And the only slowing down of damage is done to not take the agro, which a mage can easily do if they nuke the mob. I have yet to see a hunter in a full party take the agro while everyone else is attacking it aswell(with or without a pet).

And im a very clevar mage myself and i can easily beat hunters. All i have to do is poly the hunter, kill the pet, jump with in 7 yards of the hunter and nuke him while keeping him forzen in place. When im 7 yards away from him he can melee me or shout his ranged weapon.

BTW im a lvl 50 mage.
Uhhh, why don't you just polymorph my pet and kill me? That's what the 50 mage I dueled last night did (I'm 50 as well). :x

And my pet can hold the aggro off of two mages nuking and a priest healing so I dunno what yer talking about there (specifally, talking about the giants before princess in Maraudon where my pet tanked one while the paladin held the other at bay until that one was dead). In fact, the only one who ended up getting a little too much hate was me, but a disengage or feign death fixes that... either your hunters have been dumb or your mages have, 'cause hate control is one of the hunter's strengths.

Well I've been playing the game for hours.

The game isn't really hooking me.

I prefered everquest for PS2

The graphics are not very good

the sound effects, while more realistic than everquest for PS2 don't really sound cool - everyquest was small low quallity samples but they really sounded right satisfying

the animation isn't very good

the weapon animation and moves is dull and the special attacks are wierd and choppy.

I hope I find a character I like soon, I've got a level 6 hunter and a level 4 shaman.

I hate to think how much I spent on this game that cannot be played offline and is 15$ a month

I think I want to try a character with a wooden weapon - it sounds cool when they hit the mobs

I think I was expecting way too much from this game

Maybe I should have got EQII or guild wars


Can you give me your account information? Maybe people with more sense than you can play... Oh and you can pay for it too.

If your pet was holding the agro off two mages then there werent nuking it, casting spells doesnt mean they are nuking it.

And the reason i would kill the pet first is cause once the poly breaks its so annoying to try and cast a spell (although i could kill ya quick without even touching the pet, but thats not really dueling its more of an ambush in real pvp when you doint want to stick around for too long)

You can beat a hunter in PvP, grats, I don't think there is anyone who can't beat a hunter.

I was saying that because people were talking about being a clevar mage.

Ah okay... so my pet can hold aggro off of smart mages, not the idiots that 'nuke' it so they can commit suicide...

Mage don't "easily" outdamage a hunter, infact i don't even reckon they get close...i could kill 10 mobs of the same level as me twice as fast as any mage could of the same level. I was in a team in BFD yesterday and i could take aggro from anything in there quite easily over the level 30 rogue and level 29 mage while i was level 29.

Oh and all a hunter needs to do is crit strike you with Aimed Shot and you're dead instantly.

Mages outdamage the hunter BY FAR.

Now as to you killing 10 mobs faster than a mage, i completely agree. If your talking about killing 1 mob, a mage will beat you everytime. A mage completly depends on mana, which they have to use wisely because if they nuke one, theres nothing left to kill the other 9 (or anything for that matter) mobs.

A hunter on the other hand uses mana but also can still put up decent damage by just shooting its bow/gun, plus they have a pet which the mobs could attack while you regen some mana.

So yes, mages EASILY outdamage a hunter.
 
don't worry. i played wow for abit and hated it. quit. then i started playing it again and loved it for some reason...........

No not really. A critical shot with Aimed Shot only gets close to 300 damage. but it also takes another 3 seconds to use so its almost not worth using.
 
My bro hits for about 1400 damage one shot of aimed shot (critical shot) and that wasn't the level 60 aimed shot either. The level 60 one hits (critical) for around 1800 damage...which is most of a mages health at level 60.

Oh ok, i'm only at lvl 37, so....yeah that makes sense

Oh and BTW, anyone on the Crushridge server whose on the Alliance side and has tons of gold, and has nothing to do with it, feel free to donate to Opus :D

Thats "Opus" on the Crushridge server, don't forget it :thumbs:
 
My bro who is a 38 Hunter hit for 971 damage yesterday on an even con mob with aimed shot, his average crit seems to be about 700, as a Shaman my highest spell crit is 511(elemental specced too).

At lvl 50 my HP is around 2500.

It all depends on the gear your wearing.

Oh and BTW, incase you guys are getting the sense that i dont like hunters that isnt it at all, infact Hunter is one of my favorite classes. I have an Orc hunter but hes only lvl 14. I wanna just get my mage to lvl 60 before i start working full time on the hunter because i want to be all set for Battlegrounds. Although the hunters are going to be amazing in Battlegrounds IMO, so we will just have to wait and see what happens.

BTW once i gain another level (15) im going to tame one of those barrens hyena. What pets are you all using?
 
I did'nt think you hated Hunters at all :p It's just my highest character i've ever had since i first started playing WoW in the beta's back last year so i'm protective over him, even though i know they are'nt a 1v1 class in PvP. They work best for raiding definately over solo.

I don't hate Mages either :p infact i've got a mage too but he's only level 13 and like you i don't wanna level mulitple guys at the same time (well...i do sometimes log him on to burn his double XP to nothing, then log back to my main). I'd rather level one and get good gear for my next one.

Edit/ Oh, my Hunter is using a Twilight Runner (a cat in north Stonetalon mountains) which is pretty quick chasing people down. Soon as i'm level 35~ i'm taming a Swamp Jaguar, a cat almost as fast as King Bangalash ...another cat, but level 46 elite, not even the 1000G mount can outrun it, my bro's 59 Hunter has it. Check http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.aspx?fn=wow-hunter&t=77035&p=1&tmp=1#post77035 it's a good thread for checking out fast pets.
 
i just got the game right now, after months of deciding i finally got

im so excited right now :bounce:
