RACES.​

When choosing a race for the passive/usable abilities, take in to consideration personal play-style, the needs of the bracket, and how cool you will look.

That last part is important.

HORDE.

Pandaren:

• [Bouncy] - Useless in WSG.

• [Epicurean] - Maximum of +12 stamina from food buffs to replace Rumsey Rum Black Labels.

• [Quaking Palm] - Great when a melee gets too close, and you need some time to back up.

Goblin:

• [Rocket Jump] - One of the best FC racials.
• [Time is Money] - Practically useless.

• [Better Living Through Chemistry] - Useless.

• [Rocket Barrage] - Great when paired with Explosive Shot, or Arcane Shot. Averages around 100 dmg

Orc:

• [Blood Fury] - 15 seconds attack power increase, great when bursting down an EFC.

• [Hardiness] - Keeps you stunned less, extremely useful against warriors and rogues.

Troll:

• [Berserking] - Amazing ability, rape button.

• [Da Voodoo Shuffle] - You won't be slowed as long.

• [Regeneration] - Practically useless, should have food with you.

Tauren:

• [Endurance] - Minor health increase. Tauren is the best horde race for max HP.

• [War Stomp] - Great when you're surrounded by little melee people.

Forsaken:

• [Will of the Forsaken] - Great for removing fears, although it shares a cooldown with any PvP trinkets.

• [Shadow Resistance] - Great against locks, and priest fears.

• [Touch of the Grave] - Excellent when soloing, or providing passive off-heals.

• [Cannibalize] - Now that bandages have been rendered practically useless, this will become a valuable ability by hunters, as we have no healing abilities at 19.

Blood Elves:

• [Arcane Resistance] - Great against spell casters, and even other hunters.

• [Arcane Torrent] - Excellent for silencing healers in melee range, or gaining a bit of focus.

• [Arcane Affinity] - Useless.

ALLIANCE.

Pandaren:

• [Bouncy] - Useless in WSG.

• [Epicurean] - Maximum of +12 stamina from food buffs to replace Rumsey Rum Black Labels.

• [Quaking Palm] - Great when a melee gets too close, and you need some time to back up but don't want to waste Scatter Shot or Disengage.

Worgen

• [Darkflight] - Great for getting out of tight places, or catching up to the EFC to fire of a Concussive Shot.

• [Viciousness] - Buff to critical hit, proves very useful with hunters.

• [Aberration] - Like the Blood Elf, worgens prove to be resistant against casters and other hunters.
• [Flayer] - Will help when leveling skinning in order to get the extra +9 Crit.
• [Two Forms] - Purely cosmetic. Useless, but cool.
• [Running Wild] - Not available at level 19.

Draenei:

• [Gift of the Naaru] - Helpful heal.

• [Heroic Presence] - Small but useful passive to hit.

• [Gemcutting] - Useless at 19.
• [Shadow Resistance] - Excellent passive resistance against fears, warlocks, and priests.

Night Elf:

• Shadowmeld - Makes for a quick getaway, or, if strategically used, can be used to distract a target.

• Elusiveness - Only really useful with Shadowmeld, here. Great for rogues, though.

• Quickness - Useful against many horde players who have yet to become expertise-capped.
• Wisp Spirit - Useful when returning to your body in a strategic location.
• Nature Resistance - Superb resistance against Druids, Shamans, etc.

Dwarf:

• [Stoneform] - Great for when you're in trouble, though, as a hunter, you should be staying out of range of most trouble.

• [Crack Shot] - Great advantage for hunters, although not one I would consider game-changing.

• [Frost Resistance] - Anti-mage, although mages are primarily CC at 19.
• [Explorer] - Useless in WSG.
• [Mace Specialization] -Useless in WSG for Hunters.

Pandaren:

• [Bouncy] - Useless in WSG.

• [Epicurean] - Maximum of +12 stamina from food buffs to replace Rumsey Rum Black Labels.

• [Quaking Palm] - Great when a melee gets too close, and you need some time to back up but don't want to waste Scatter Shot or Disengage.

id personally use a human hunter overall just because of the racial now everyman for himself, and also because that will allow you to be able to farm up to 2 trinkets like lets say to of the haste heirlooms
