Really alot of new hunters from Wotlk will be having to relearn alot more of there class. Considering in ICC the mechanics are alot of tank and spank. Just pew pew and volley the trash. Besides Saurfang and dream walker which gives a fun, kite the blowing up zombies. So though ill miss volley.. hopefully MS will be better then it.
thank you Ashaine and Kurenio!!!!
Re: Good bye Volley, It was nice knowing you... : (
After that, it will be a matter of mixing Cobra Shot and Multi-Shot for AoE packs.

Re: Good bye Volley, It was nice knowing you... : (
I will miss volley on my MM hunter - especially times when I'm close enough to combine it with an improved exp trap <3Sasrei wrote:I.. will still miss volley. Mostly cause by time its finished volleying the cooldown is up and you can just hit volley again. It.. was my dps *snicker* I enjoyed it alot to see my hunter go up to 15k-17k. Multi shot looks cool now. I am glad they fixed but I heard that the new dungeons are going to be hardcore so again we may be ccing alot and I heard kiting is coming back! Wow.. I just thought back about General in UBRS.. the kite across the bridge, into the beasts room. It was epic.

But that being said it seemed a little "too easy" to just stand there spamming volley - especially as that tends to put my hunter on the top of the DPS chart, which leaves me feeling a little dirty...

Re: Good bye Volley, It was nice knowing you... : (
Improved traps are in survival, though. O_o At any rate, we have trap launcher+explosive, trap launcher+snakes, AND multi spam - yes, you can do all three in rapid succession. Trap launcher seems to not have a cd, at least on the PTR. You're only limited by trap cooldowns. Oh wait, what's this? Gogo readiness - that's four traps AND multi spam.Worba wrote:I will miss volley on my MM hunter - especially times when I'm close enough to combine it with an improved exp trap <3

This is correct. No CD and no cast time. It's sorta like fan of knives.Fayos wrote:Having some problems with logging in to the beta right now, but there is none right now if my mind does not decieve me.Sukurachi wrote:Are they changing the cooldown on Multi-Shot?
Nope, mine hits everything.zedxrgal wrote:I'm not sure if it's me or what but in the PTR multi shot still only seems to hit three targets. Is it that way for anyone else in the PTR?

Re: Good bye Volley, It was nice knowing you... : (
If you click your traps: /cast [button:2]Trap launcher[button:1]Explosive trap
right-left on the button then left on the target gives a relatively smooth launch.
If you keypress them:
/castsequence Trap Launcher, Explosive Trap
double-tap then left on target
I find it's led to a much smoother trap launch for me, rather than 2 different hotkeys/clicks - smooth enough to use on trash without it all being dead before you're finished casting.

Re: Good bye Volley, It was nice knowing you... : (
In larger packs I'd opt to single target anyway. Works well.
