Hunter - what skills are good?

[ncvr]

Kill your pet by targetting the new pet you want and facing away in combat stance. Or unequiping your arrows and attacking it. Your pet will attack but you won't and the mob will attack your pet. Then, when your pet is dead, turn around and tame the mob which should be at half health.

Ensnare arrow in scouting is your most powerful single target attack.
Tricks has stunfist, very useful for lvling or for war.

also ambush is very very very useful even at lvl 1 it really helps stopping people who try to get away

Most if not all shortbow users do this, I'm sure.

It's fun when I see someone running away from my realmmates with low hp while I'm looting. Especially when they think they're out of range.

Equip longbow, (optional) Mobility, Parabolic Shot, Ethereal Arrow. RP

Every single experienced hunter does this...

As you say, you keep your head up.
ALMOST every hunter i find will use a long bow first to keep me out of meteor distance
Simple, its called recalling battle knowledge ^^

"You are out of range"
"Valorious has hit you, Normal hit: 146 damage"
"Fucking pet has hit you, Normal hit: 317 damage"
"You were killed by the fucking pet, next time kill it first douche-bag"

Rather, I've seen it on the forums and in-game.

Every hunter carries a range 30 bow.

If you feel the need to flame because somebody stated a fact, then I feel sorry for you and you need to go outside.

EDIT: Didn't see this.

go look at some kangaroos.

What, you think we have kangaroos bouncing down our streets?

[ncvr]

LOL, call me asshole then say you're not flaming me?

You obviously have different definition of the word "flaming" to me.

[ncvr]

What is this then?
