Ya I'm definitely playing my hunter again in WotLK
Greetings.
I have some good news, and some bad news. First, the bad news. Unfortunately we won't be able to do the Aspect of the Viper change I discussed yesterday (passive instead of requiring you to attack the target) at this time because of technical limitations and its potential to shake up our current balance goals. However, we will evaluate it as an option for a future patch.
Now, the good news.
- Aimed Shot - This shot will now be instant cast, its effect/cooldown will remain unchanged.**
- Scatter shot - This will now be an 11-point Survival talent.
- Readiness - This will now be the 21-point Marksmanship talent.
- Trap Mastery - This will now be the 41-point Survival talent. Granted, not very sexy for a 41-pointer but we'll do some changes there in a future patch (after WOLK ships).
- Surefooted is swapping places with T.N.T. (so Surefooted is now in tier 2)
These changes will be live in an upcoming beta build.
Edit: ** We'll most likely have to reduce Aimed Shots damage if it becomes instant, somewhere in the ballpark of more than arcane shot/multi-shot on a single target but less than what it is now.

| Ya, I had a couple in there before I saw that blue post. Since the talent calcs haven't updated with what is said there I removed 'em and I'm just waiting for now to see what happens  .

| makes me jealous that now MM gets scatter AND readiness when surv was begging for scatter for the longest time.
i dont know if ill level my hunter first (i havent decided what to level first)
but if i do go hunter, i might actually raid since i sort of miss it.
readiness would actually make rapid killing + rapid recuperation an interesting combo to raid with. you could use rapid fire twice every 3 minutes.
as far as pvp, im thinking (assume that points spent in spots that will be changed are the new abilities in those spots, including the TNT -> surefooted switch):
MM super-mana drain spec Hello viper like 90% of the time. Too bad most of the points deep in the tree are throw away talents. not a big fan of wild quiver, rapid recup, piercing shots, or imp steady in most PVP situations.
Surv (updated) Might put points in MT somewhere else. Not entirely convinced that exploding shot is all that great though; it seems TNT is the only reason exploding is significantly better than arcane. Curious to see what the new 41 surv will be, though its stupid that itll be "after it ships".
Lock & Load is my new favorite PVP talent. Its beautiful because it doesn't increase PVE dmg that much (since its not much better than steady spamming, and you trap less often) but it helps a lot in PVP for on-the-move damage, which is what hunters really needed.

| Ya, the 52/19 MM spec looks good if Imp Rez Pet isn't really needed. But from what I hear pets still die absurdly fast, so I was looking at something like 7/51/13 to keep Imp Rez. With pet abilities like Roar of Sacrifice, Intervene, etc, keeping your pet alive is going to be immensely important for your ability to peel effectively.

| wow, the calc was updated in like the last 5 minutes.
Yeah, it would suck IMO if imp rez was necessary because then i couldnt get L&L which, like i said above is my new favorite PVP talent. I hope with blood of the rhino and hopefully future pet buffs that pets will be more survivable. i plan on a tenacity pet (probably like most non-BM hunters) so hopefully the survival will be good. would be cool if there was a surv talent to boost your pet's survival.
