what would be the bis gear for a 39 hunter any links to the top level 39 hunters would help too
and what professions would benifit a 39 hunter the most?
Hi.
Firstly, don`t copy my gear precisely as it is not finished and is a pseudo PvE mish-mash for dailies/dungeons. I am assuming you are after a PvP set, so you can base it on my armory but make the following changes (this assumes you have access to BoA`s, as it ain`t BiS without them):
Note: There is no overall BiS, as it depends on what you are trying to achieve. The following is based upon good survivability, as the bracket is now more bursty. This should make you hit capped, with good health and good burst:
Head:
Stained Shadowcraft Cap
Back:
Inherited Cape of the Black Baron with
Enchant Cloak - Stealth on.
Hands:
Revelosh Gloves of the Monkey 9 Stam/8 Agi ideally, with
Enchant Gloves - Superior Agility on.
Waist: As per armory, but also get a
Gem-Studded Leather Belt if you do arena/wargames for the heal.
Legs:
Leggings of the Verdant Oasis with
Thick Armor kit on.
Finger 1:
Aquamarine Signet of the Monkey 8 Stam/7 Agi variety.
Finger 2: As my armory, or there are alternatives for more survivability like
Tarenar's Token.
Trinket 1:
Inherited Insignia of the Horde or the alliance version. If human, stick with my armory trinkets, although there are variables for even more survivability like adding
Heart of Noxxion to AGM.
Tidal Charm seems to have been grandfathered, but that and AGM would be BiS for human, if you have it.
Offhand: If it`s possible, (there`s debate if you can) another
Militia Hatchet if you are willing to faction change, or as per armory if not. Also get another
Nordic Longshank with a
Steel Weapon Chain for when facing disarmers.
Ranged: There is still some debate and things to be checked regarding this, but for anything other than troll
Nail Spitter is thought to be BiS, although it is no longer available unless you completed the quest Pre-Shattering. Failing that,
Bow of Searing Arrows is generally next best, but there are alternatives. See this thread
BiS Hunter Weapon Discussion for further details.
With regard to professions, I would say Skinning and Enchanting is BiS, but 375 is no longer available so there are alternatives. I`d guess Skinning, then a choice of Mining or Engineering. I dropped Herbalism for Enchanting after the "nerf", I wasn`t impressed with the haste adjustment, but I have yet to test a haste set and find a sweet spot that may even be achievable with Herbalism. More to come on that later.
Personally I`d take Mining/Skinning for Arena and Engineering/Skinning for Bg`s. The cloak and bombs are probably more valuable overall than 10 Stamina. But the choices are pretty open.
With regards to Engi Parachute and Disengage, I had trouble on an alt getting them to work properly as it
seemed like the cloak was on a GCD and my macro wouldn`t work properly. But then again the macro could have been off so don`t quote me on that
Anything else, just ask away.
Regards.
