I have been in channel since i transferred in. I apologize for the special character name, i was forced to change it. The ù is alt+151 for those who care. As sson as i think of a cool name i'll change it.

In the mean time Grasen, i just want to say that it's been a blast having the oppurtunity to run with you guys in the ratred bg's. One of Blizz's better ideas imo. :)

I'm going to be on the road

I'm going to be on the road for the next few hours, but I have some questions for you that I hope you can answer before I can get back to a computer. Please answer them all.

1. Do you pvp as Survival, Marksmanship, or Beast Mastery? Do you rotate through them at all (on a BG by BG basis)?

2. What glyphs do you use for pvp and why do you use them over the other options available? Include options for SV, BM or MM, if you run with anything other than one spec. Please list Primary and Major glyphs. Minors are not necessary to list.

3. What pets do you use in pvp, and what do they allow you to do that you could not do without them? (specific abilities please, and list as many useful ones as you can)

4. How do you deal with a melee in your face 1v1? Warrior? DK? (full strat please)

5. How do you deal with a spell caster 1v1? Healer?

6. How do you deal with other hunters 1v1?

Hi Derchion, ty for the questions.

1. I pvp in mm spec, i have spec'd and played the others but i'm most comfortable and effective w/mm. After everything shakes out from the expansion i'll run the best of the two spec's.

2. Primary's: arcane, steady and kill shot which i change from chimera which i run in PvE. I like back to back kill shots over the chimera cd which is more effective for raid dps. Majors: disengage, icy trap and I haven't determined wether I like concussive shot or freezing trap better.

3.Pets: I have always used a pet with a stun ability for pvp. I ran with a crab for a longtime, pin ability. Now using a monkey's bad manner. lol

Hunter's mark and Serpent sing are a given for my spec, therefore it's assume that they are up whenever possible.

I'm honestly not a dueler and when i'm in a bg I really try not to fight alone. So i don't know if i can storyline a fight shot by shoy but i'l try.

Since i'm a ranged dps player i obviously want to distance myself from melee in my face. I throw up whatever suits the moment whether it be a trap, a wing clip or scatter shot, deterrance, disengage and roll from there. Mixing chimera, steady shot and arcane shot with concussion and scatter shots, tranq for enrages, pet kc and kill shot to finish up.

For the casters it's avoiding spells with Silencing shot and dps'ing again with my mm rotation shots and mixing the dps with all the stuns and slows available.

With hunters i feign and md to pet and keep his focus off me and work him with available stuns and dps shots.

I hope this helps you understand how i understand my class and play my toon. I'm always looking to improve my toon and progress as a player. All suggestions or advice would be most appreciated.

Thanks again for looking at my app and I hope to see you in game.
