So, instead of everybody saying "Hunters suck! Kiting is for pussies! Mages are cowards! Rogues are wimps!", how about you offer some pragmatic solutions and strategies to deal with these classes? So far, I see a whole lot of QQing, and not a lot of (intellectual) pewpewing.
1) QFT....I dont see anyone QQing...if anything, i see people admiring the class they play
2) This post is for a) pumping eachother up, and letting people know there are still warriors out there that think the class is great, b) as stated earlier, feel free to post how to deal w/ classes/builds etc....
3) Hunters --> obviously the typical opener would be to charge the hunter, and hamtring him asap. If you can tell his pet will get to you first, i charge the pet to get some rage, hamstring it, then intercept the hunter (leapfrogging essentially). Same thing hamstring his in place and pound away. Watch for his traps, 90 % of hunters are noobs, place a trap and run straight through it and keep runnning forward....well, move a little the left or right, and avoid the trap (durrr). if he hits you w/ scatter shot and starts running, he will do one of 2 things...turn on the (aspect of cheetah? dont know hunter abilities), bust out your gun or bow, and shoot him to daze him, and catch up (since intercept is on CD). If he doesnt, keep chasing, and as soon as you are in range, pop int. shout on him, get close, and take this chance to bandage pending on your health, and before fear breaks, pop a hamstring and tear him a new hole.
With an arms spec, i find hunters easy meat. Just 3 shot the bastards.
4) Rogues --> lol...put on a shield, and get in def stance. If he manages to get the opener on you, hes gonna have a hard time keeping you stunlocked. Hit your trinket to break it if you want. if not wait for his little stunt to be over, rend him, hamstring, demo shout, thunderclap <-- hes gonna be useless after that. Bust out your 2 hander, and flatten his ***. If he vanishes, pop thunderclap or demo shout IMMEDIATELY (of course, if you were making sure he was constantly rended it would matter if you were late to get the demo/TC off) and continue to rape him
5) Mages --> With our new intercept buff coming, and our trinket dispelling polymorph.....charge him (you can usually get one hit off before he novas/blinks).
If he novas --> Use intercept and get a hit or two off before he blinks. Once he blinks, get in close asap, pop a swiftness pot, or free action pot (you do carry potions on you right?), get in close, hamstring and rape him before his CD's are up.
If he blinks, he is probably going to try to cast poly on you, so try to get in and pummel it. (dont use intercept yet, cuz then hell just nova you and GG) if you cant get close enough in time, use that trinket, and continue to chase him down. Again, use either a free action, or swiftness potion to close the gap. If he novas, use your intercept, and if his blink is still on CD, GG for the mage. If you are frozen in one spot, dont jsut sit there! SHOOT him with your gun/bow, use bombs if your an engineer etc..etc.. just dont stop hurting the ***** no matter what, he hardly has health, so it will help.
oh...and hope his coldsnap is on CD =) lol
These strats are w/ an arms spec, with some in fury...
