Hunter Talent Builds, Guides & Specs
Cataclysm Hunter Talent Builds
Hunters are the undisputed leveling champions of World of Warcraft. Their ability to solo and grind is uncanny. Almost every speed leveling contest that has been won, has been done so with the Hunter class. It's not just their ability to do DPS that makes them a viable soloing option. The primary reason they are able to level so fast is because they have almost no down time due to their pet tanking for them and their ability to heal their pet. When a hunter specs into the Beast Mastery tree their pets become supernatural beings and have enormous powers and strengths.
Besides being great levelers, they also have the ability to do a high amount of ranged DPS and have utility abilities for crowd control and threat management. Please feel free to submit your own build.
