Yeah they should remove all the pet stuff from SV that was stolen from BM.

Re: It doesn't matter how many cool pets we will be able to or could tame

Having self-heal either from ferocity leech or SB heal matter in pve. Being able to move fast, slowing down or causing mortal wound, and freeing yourself from cc matters esp in PVP. Pet skills matter. I said "usually doesn't matter". For most of the content people do, especially on this f...

Huh? This is quite a sizeable buff to Hunter survivability which is something the class needs a lot right now.

Re: It doesn't matter how many cool pets we will be able to or could tame

While I do agree that you should be able to respec pets, with the damage normalised it usually really doesn't matter what pet you take. The only exception is requiring Ferocity when you're the only Bloodlust in the group and I don't think that's too bad.

Re: Wishlist for Hunter Pet System Changes in 10.0

Sv gets to stay the rexxar build It's hardly Rexxar because it uses a spear and bombs while all its pet stuff is just watered down and lifted from BM. BM's existence makes a separate Rexxar spec for Hunters pointless. We already have a pet spec with all the things Rexxar actually used from Warcraft...

Re: Neutering of BM spec? (removal of families, etc)

Replace Barbed shot with Beast call. (summons an extra beast) And every time you use it, it summons an extra one or refreshes the duration of the active secondary pets. This is kind of what BM was in Legion. I see that's probably what you're basing it on but as a reminder to readers in Legion we ha...

Re: Neutering of BM spec? (removal of families, etc)

Honestly, BM needs an overhaul like Survival. I don't see how this is the way to go even after reading your post. BM's design and foundation are fine. The main problems are surface-level mechanical and tuning issues such as every active talent option being tuned to be garbage. Otherwise it actually...

Re: Wishlist for Hunter Pet System Changes in 10.0

I dont think SV should go ranged really. MM is the petless range BM is the pet range. That's good enough. SV would benefit from Duel wielding though if they are insisting on this weird pseudo ranged crap. Unless for some reason our shots never use ranged weapons. Then it's gonna be... weird seeing ...

Solo content is easy enough for this to really not matter.

Re: Wishlist for Hunter Pet System Changes in 10.0

6 years in and Blizzard still evidently has no direction or plan for melee Survival :D Note to Blizz: if you can't properly reconcile the baseline class talent tree with SV and have to make special exceptions unlike every other class in the game, maybe your core design philosophy (...whatever the he...

Re: Neutering of BM spec? (removal of families, etc)

On one hand, BM's proficiency/viability is not dependent on exotic pets. All exotic pet families have 1 additional passive which is utility only. You can run a non-exotic pet and do just fine. In fact the optimal BM Hunter setup in PvP right now is a Raptor, non-exotic, because it's Cunning with a h...

Re: Wishlist for Hunter Pet System Changes in 10.0

The only reason Camouflage isn't used is because it takes up the same slot as exhilaration. I guarantee you if it was BL everyone would use it. Exhilaration is baseline. Camouflage shares a talent row with Trailblazer and Natural Mending which is a cooldown reduction on Exhilaration. Camouflage doe...

Re: Wishlist for Hunter Pet System Changes in 10.0

The ONLY change needed to the existing pet system is respeccing. Everything else about it is fine, to be quite honest. It's close to the ideal mix of uniqueness of family capability yet freedom of choice. 1. Exotic pets being removed. I posted in the Community Council forums a while back my thoughts...
