Yes another WoW post, I will save you the need to urge your peni towards the keyboard in a desperate attempt to point this out...

Pretty sweet RPG so far, only a couple of hours in. Haven't quite seen why so many people have been fapping like porn monkeys over it yet but have been told by plenty you are no-where near scratching the surface of it yet (which I can believe by the sheer size of it so far).

Chose to be a Dwarf in the end, a Warrior Dwraf with possibly the ugliest face ever. Kicks ass in battle, spent ages at the opening of Dragonmaw fighting the wolves and troggs to level up a bit. One thing that is decent is that everyone who I have come across so far has been pretty helpful and not even slightly c*ck faced.

Interface is sweet, the layout was easy enough to get to grips with after the initial "this is just one area, wtf?!". The environments make Lisa Riley's mu*f saddle looking like a toddler's paddling pool.

Controls are easy, the magic areas aren't even slightly geeky from what I have come across so far, just drag it onto the bar and click it when you need it. Haven't really bought much yet but that too seems simple enough to use and from what I gather it nails other MMORPG's for its less geeky approach. For a first time MMORPG'er' I have founs it fack easy to get into and nothing like what I expected (only in a good way though).

Visually it is sweet, the soundtrack is awesome, the presentation is spot on etc etc *fap fap*

Wish I didn't have work tomorrow but life's a b*tch!

Must've been one gay Shaman.
My guy is absurdly difficult to kill, I'll totem your ass before you know what hit you.
And if I do get killed, then I'll self-rez and run away like a girl to get bigger kids

If the concussion shot would always stun the enemy then they'd be pretty decent but as soon as they get within close quarters you're pretty much screwed

Kawada was also a Hunter on the same server, think we both agree that single PVP they are pants compared to other classes.

But hunters suck a close combat, if you hit lag you are screwed, they have no moves that can be used to get out of a situation like this and although the pets are good for single player, in PVP people just use scrae or something similar to make them completely in-effective.

I was also bored, very bored of it.

I wouldn’t really have gone on the word of a mere three hunters, as there are many who PvP very well. It does take practice to get good a PvP’ing with the hunter, but in no way are they useless, with the a good understanding of abilities Hunters can be quite effective in combat. Plus with the forthcoming Pet Customisation, pets will eventually play a much bigger role in PvP’ing then they currently do.

The Rogue has to have a dagger in the main hand for Backstab and what not so the chances are providing you use a powerful first attack they will go after you initially, after 3 Backstabs in a row though I doubt it.

Looking forward to using stealth on those barstuard ship style sections. Gonna buy 5-10 of those water breathing things and just use them when needed. Already spent 5 talent points on decreasing the chance of being detected whilst using stealth.

Didn't see the problem myself, while they were happily wailing on you i'd be hitting them from afar nice and safe :-D

Looks like i'll be the focus of attention this time around as they were always going after me when we were questing as horde on Thunderhorn

I spoke to 3 level 60 Hunters who said in PVP against any 55 upwards they get nailed, even if they see them well in advance, especially Rogues/Priests or Mages.

Trust me, when there is lag in an area which happens a fair bit the Hunter becomes useless, a Hunter is only useful if you see them way in advance and have time to get away, if you get ambushed there are no escape moves and you just end up spending most of your time trying to resurrect somewhere where you can actually carry on playing without getting nailed again.

Hunters are not crap for PvP, there is a lvl 60 hunter in my guild who does very well.
