Hunter buff 4.3

No they are not, hunters are not viable in arena they can only get carried by shit like feral and dk.



Arena being the environment I mentioned.



The main reason Hunters are so powerful in large maps with few LoS opportunity games (ie Battlegrounds) is that Blizz tries to make a 'Archer' class 'work' in Arena, when it's ipso facto not going to be as good as more close-quarters classes, without having rather absurd repurcussions for those larger map-games.



In other words, it's basically a design-conundrum created by Blizzard's silly stance that every class-concept should be viable in Arena, when there is a reason you aren't e.g. that likely to see a pit-fight scene in movies with one of the combatants being an Archer - it makes no fooking sense.
 
The fact that one of the best hunters there is can do well at 3k does not mean hunters are well off



Perhaps being an exceptionally forgiving Class only goes so far, if e.g. Traps and Pets where switched, Huntardism would be a much less common affliction (like in other games) and more would do well at Arena.
 
Braindeadly is one of the very few exceptions to the hunter rule in arena.



Hunters shine in RBGs, could you possibly guess why?



Even on AJ, the tips they give for arena as a hunter: reroll.
