A hunter can walk around invisible 3/4 all the time with only 10% speed reduction. Does it makes them overpowered?
Unique abilities have to be powerful. If they are not they are not needed in a group because other classes can replace it easily.

Gee, and i thought the 1000dmg lightning arrow with -25% group speed debuff, or the +50% max dmg group attack buff death sentence, or the "ignores steel skin" arcana strike were the 'unique' abilities Marksmen had. Oh, wait, i thought it was their UNMATCHED defensive buffs. So it's actually Ethereal arrow that is the 'unique powerful ability'?
How come marksmen also have 90+% of all the hunters 'unique powerful abilities' too?
SOTW-
Rep Shot-
Projectile Rain, etc, etc-
A marksmen gets ALL of that plus his own unique skills.
The problem is, Marksmen are loaded down with ALL KINDS of 'unique powerful abilities'. Too many.
They are overpowered, it's really quite simple.
Meanwhile since i started playing, hunters have been nerfed again and again and again.
As far as pets, they still have far too many bugs for me (They so love to drown themselves at bridges), and they have too many shortcomings. Like none of them having ranged attacks anymore, for one thing. Man do i miss the days of the Ghost Necromancer pet.
Lose your lvl 19 pet- which can be one shot killed by barbs, and 2 shot killed by Warlocks (really every class has a spell to easily deal with pets. For knight it's AoO and Taunt, for Conjs it's steel skin, for archers it's SOTW), and you're just a
VERY weak archer.
