I know LM and Slytin have mics. Pop, Grenn and Cheeto?
Should we meet on Vent, or is the WoW voice chat good enough?

I can always go Holy if you don't like the priest, so that shouldn't be a problem.

I've got the crappy mic built into my monitor. It should work.

What is this "Vent" you speak of?

Points:

- "Built in mic" is tantamount to you saying you don't mind taking a crap in someone's ear. Buy a headset.
- Make sure if you're healing, you use an addon. I use HealBot, and like it quite a bit.
- Feel free to skip Mauradon when you get there. It is the devil.

Also: Monday Night WoW(tm) is a copyrighted term by RabbitIndustries. You guys totally have to call yourselves something else.

I use the same one, works perfectly.

Edit: This is a must read for vent users. Trust me, follow those instructions and you'll thank yourself later.

I just looked at this thread more closely. You are tanking Ret? Would you rather me or someone go tank?

Well, Hello Mr. Fancypants. Any mods I should have being a hunter? I'm rockin' Bartender, Quartz, Decursive, Combuctor (I LOVE this mod), Auctioneer, and BigWigs as my main stuff. Also some smaller convenience ones like hit assist and cartographer. Although, I'm tempted to re-up Questhelper as we're leveling again but its kind of heavy and the new map and quest system in game seem pretty solid. Also, any hints towards what pets i should tame and talents specs would be nice.

Sidebar: Its kind of weird being lvl 5 and having 200g and all Netherweave bags.

I have a nice Hunter mod. I'll get the name when I get home. It reminds you to swap Aspects when your mana is low or too high to warrant a certain aspect.

The pets have been severely simplified since the last hunter I played before 3.x.x. Given that we have a warrior in the group now, and assuming he'll function as the off-tank, you should go for a DPS pet over a balanced or tank type pet. I forget the three names, Tanacity is the balanced one I think.

This is actually an excellent point. Knowing what aspect you currently have active and knowing when you should change it is central to good hunter play. Personally, I use PowerAuras to track this information along with other buff and cooldown information. Have I mentioned how goddamn awesome PowerAuras is?

The three types of pets:

Ferocity: DPS focused pets. They have talents that make them the only type you want for group play, unless you REALLY need your pet to be a strong off tank. They are also fine for soloing, even though tenacity pet are better. If you only have one pet, it should be a ferocity pet. In the endgame, wolfs are currently king as their special ability is an AP buff for themselves and the hunter. At lower levels just tame whatever you like (or whatever has a special ability you like), as you really don't need to worry about min maxing so much.

Tenacity: Tank pets. They have talents that make them tough and can hold aggro on multiple mobs once you get the thunderstomp talent (I don't think you'll have the pet talent points for that until level 30 or 40 or so). If you have two pets, one should be ferocity and the other should be tenacity, and if I was leveling a new hunter, I'd have at least two pets. Bears and crocolisks make ideal tenacity pets since their special abilities will also provide AOE threat, but other than that once again pick what appeals to you or has an ability that sounds cool.

Cunning: PvP/special utility pets. Their talent tree is designed to let them provide niche functionality. Unless you plan to PvP as you level, you'll probably want to stick to the other two types of pets, but if you do take a liking to a particular cunning pet you'll probably still be just fine for leveling.

Well it looks like Zero is all over that I am not a big add-on person. I do use them... just as little as possible. I have Healbot up on all my toons (just cause i never disable it from non healing toons) and recount and DBM and mandatory mods.. but I like simple. I just make lots of macros.

I guess I am old school due to playing back then.

I was going to suggest Petopoia, but Zero already did that. I also like to use weird pets that most people do not use. So I used Clackle (my crab) most of leveling up...cause until about level 50, he could do more damage then my ferocity pet cause thunderstomp was AOE and crit all the time. I switched then to a moth, just cause I thought it would really be annoying having a moth attack you or follow you in PvP. I do not play my hunter in raids though, so it is a fun and mess around toon.

Hey guys...I haven't played in a few months but I'm going to resub this weekend. I've got a warrior in BOA gear around 12 or so that I can bring to the party. Can't remember the toons name but if you see Aquemini/Blackguarde online thats me. The group looks heavy on mdps so I wouldn't mind rolling a mage either.

Week days I'll be around around after 8 (the later the better).

Forgive my noobness, but what does BHA stand for?

I am sure we will not have everyone every week. I know I have a bowling banquet coming up and it is on a monday. I believe April 26th? Things come up, you never know.

Over 5 we can always PvP for a change of pace (pvp gives xp now) or rotate people. I have absolutly no problem sitting out. I can still keep up in leveling. Which brings me to....

I made my toon last night. Openminded is the name, I hit level 14. Just a few more quests and I will be at the 15 mark for Monday. I hope to be able to do that Sat. evening or Sunday evening. I have a lot of yard work to do while the weather is nice this weekend.
