Best Hunter Pet (Level 20)

[Sanctuary]

Self explainatory, what is the best pet I can have as a F2P hunter? I've heard spider due to pin, any inputs?

 

[Whyzo]

scorpion, bird, or moth.



scorpion and bird for their disarm, moth for silence, u don't really need the web because its so easy to kite things. spiders are really helpful with druids though.

Depends on the situation. A bird is useless against casters. Thats why I keep a wasp (2 sec stun, 45 sec cooldown), and a bird (disarm) at all times. I also use a worg/cat combo for dungeons.

disarm pets are really, really fucking annoying



that is all

 

[Karazelle]

All hunter pet abilities have situational usefulness. I run with a Croc, for it's Ankle Crack, a 6 sec. 50% slow with a 10 sec. CD. This allows me to stick my pet on a FC and focus-burn the healer.

This is my opinion:

• bird for disarm. better than scorpion (dive instead of charge)
  
• moth for silence.
  
• bat for stun. better than wasp. (20yard stun instead of melee stun)
  
• spider for locking
  

Usually i use bird & bat. If there is many huntars/rouge i choose bird otherwise bat.

Snare (Crokolisk), Ankle Crack-50%

Root (Dog), Lock Jaw {Controlled Root}

Root (Crab), Pin {Controlled Root}

Root (Spider), Web {Controlled Root}

Stun (Bat), Sonic Blast {Controlled Stun}

Stun (Wasp) Sting {Controlled Stun}

Lockout (Moth), Serenity Dust





The {bracket} is the diminishing return category. Note that the Moth doesn't silence, it locks out of the casted school.



Edit: holy poo! the wowhead mouseovers finally work!!



editedit: this doesn't include disarms.

For PuGs I use lockout + disarm. For a full on annoying CC hunter bat.

If I made a hunter I would get a little pony from Hillsbrad foothills. Just because they are so itty bitty and cute. Who would want to fight after seeing one of those?

Seeing some lousy info in here.



You want a Bird, Spider, Moth, and possibly Bat.



I'm running bird/moth, but a non-BM hunter will want a Spider or Bat to chase down runners and get them into concussive range.



A slightly shorter cooldown is never worth giving up range. Charge is absolute trash compared to Dash/Dive.



Bird > Scorpion because charge is awful.

Bat > Wasp because of 20yd range.

Spider > Dog (> Crab) because of 30yd range

Moths are awesome.
