Any class has a weak point, that when touched, renders that class basicaly helpless - except hunters (low dmg? rather not that low - I think even if hunter could do 150 dmg max they would be impossible to kill with camo/stalker/so much defense and speed and very strong pet that doesn't vanish until killed).

Regards.

leveling alone in the war zone is a bad idea
crying at death is for the weak unfit gamer
Hunters often hunt deep in the enemy realm and must choose targets that will die fast with little attention / mana cost.
This is war, so if you are in the warzone expect to die. Hunters don't run out of cowardness. We retreat mostly because people bring 5+ more people to kill us while we are in combat. Fight your own battles and cry less.
Hunters weak points?
1) kill the pet and they lose 70% power
2) do not level alone - it's a waste of time really because you can make 100k+ xp/hour doing group area leveling
3) hunters have other weak points but that's for you to discover. I am not here to make things easy for people that do not test many options themselves. You don't go from noob to pro overnight.. it takes blood swet and many tears.

For a hunter to use camo/stalker that hunter must put 8 seconds of travel time between him and those following. (mainly because the +20% mobility increase) Most camo/stalker attemps fail because of how much distance you can travel now in less than 5 seconds.

Warlocks / conjurers can rape hunter with ease if they stay on their toes. Barbs and knights can rape hunters if they kill the pet first.

If you die to a hunter one of few things happened
1) you had low life to begin with... and in that case consider that the hunter did you a favor. Now you are revived at save with 100hp and mana!
2) you do not have mobility enchance/decrease skills
3) you have bad skill timing/setup
End of story...............

Now you know and knowing is half the battle! GI-Joe

I don't hate hunters.

I don't hate hunters. I just hate some hunters. It's not so much about their class as about their playing style. Hunters do indeed have the potential to be the most annoying class in the game (and so it should be). But some people just don't know when to stop..

But then again - it's the exact same people that taught me how to fight! Nothing can teach you how to fight better than un-prepared fights where you are low on health and mana from the start. With the "old" SotW I learned how and when to use Darkness efficiently.

Thank you for your concern about my hunter. And you are worng, not first time not last time. I don't play as much not cause TrE was removed. But to know why... you would have to play hunter. I do for more then 1 year... and i play conj from time to time.

If i was able to survive 5 confuse in row. 5 attacks in row from same lvl 50 hunter, while supporting my friend then i am sure that so good conj as you also can do that. As ppl said before, stay buffed, use mental (even low lvl ivy or beetle).
Don't stay in one place, don't walk alone, don't walk alone, don't walk alone, don't lvl alone and never ever level alone. We say that for more then 2 years but yet i see ppl crossing bridges without buffs, ppl riding horse alone, leveling solo near bridge etc.

If hunter will run away? For me it is not a problem, he will come back and i can change spot or fight with him next time. I didn't died he didn't got rps so who care? I know barbs hunting in pairs did you ever tried to catch them?
You whine cause we do our job. And omg conj talking about others being OP.... like wtf just look at your spells. I always feel like god while casting most of them.

And for God's sake i play this game for 2 years and i really know what OP mean. I was one of those who didn't used SotW cause it was OP and i tell you that hunters are not overpowered now and we use camu not cause it is so cool but cause our power is in suprise.
If we would fight like knights we would die just like that.

So once again, stay buffed - if you don't know how i can show you. Don't walk alone - it is stupid. Don't level alone - it is even more stupid.

+1 for an offhand comment? Nice.

I voted for "I hate hunters" (on a ... how old is this poll?) not purely for the reasons I mentioned (By the way, barbarians have sucky areas now but we're still overpowered in some respects, or would be if not for the position lag), but because I have a low-level hunter and it's a pain in the ass to grind. Can't wait to be able to buff my pet.

Hunters are hated because they attack you when you are not prepared, when you feel safe. They are hated because they get away so easily.

With the right gear Hunters are indeed overpowered and i understand ppl who hate hunters as they just can make you feel helpless when they leave you no chance to get away no matter what you do.

Theres no class who can survive 1 on 1 such Hunter when he comes stealthd.

Which class isn't overpowered with the right gear ?

Combined with Tracking, speed and Camo it makes them overpowered in a way that pisses others royally off. Others may be "overpowered" too but you have a chance to spot them, chance to react, chance to hunt em down.
