Hello!
I’ve made a full STR archer2->hunter1 so far.
Now I am thinking how can I proceed with this base. Would hunter3->falconer->musketeer be a solid choice?
Your build is pretty much the same as mine, with only rank 7 being different.
Right now I am a lv91 Hunter C2.
I can’t really say if it’s solid or not since all the attention is being given to Scout C3 and Quarrel Shooter C3, but I had no issues on leveling the build so far.
The utility hunter gives is amazing. Coursing makes the opponent not being able to move, attack and use skills for the duration and Retrieve stuns. Aside from the pet AI being a bit clunky now I can say the path is strong pre 100, on both solo and teamplay scenarios.
I’m in process of leveling similar build but instead of going Hunter C3 i plan to
Hunter has suffered a lot since iCBT2 because pet doesnt use Rush Dog automatically anymore. Wugushi is there because i want more AoE and falconer for even MORE AoE (and pets ^_^).
As you went full Str path, you might want to consider Wugu for yourself too since poisons now scale properly with character’s Atk
If I stay Hunter - what will be my AOE skill? Rush dog? Seems weak.
If I will go Wugushi - what pros Hunter will provide to Wugushi build?
Monsters will gather around your pet as it aggros them instead of you =)
Pet doesn’t autocast Rush Dog but now the skill does more damage.
Coursing and Retrieve now does damage and a LOT.
are you going all out str lol?
maybe rouge C2 for your last couple of ranks so you can crit more often, your pet can distract while you sneak up behind and 1 shot stuff
this would be good as a PVP build but not sure about PVE
but they bug your pet if target dies during skill while its duration hasnt expired yet. They are also single target skills and pet selects whatever target he wants (probably closest to him).
Yes, that is a bug that needs to be corrected.
Retrieve has like 5 seconds duration so I barely notice the bug…Coursing in the other hand…
The pet AI can be enhanced, but even with the AI pet has atm the class is still strong damage-wise.
At least it is fun to watch swordies die to Coursing > Rush Dog > Rush Dog > Coursing combo in duels while you sit next to campfire and yawn =)
And here I was thinking I was losing it. What do you guys do for boss fights? As Coursing doesn’t appear to work on bosses, and instead he’ll target a trap. I was going to go Archer > Archer > Hunter > Hunter > Fletcher > Falcon > Falcon the C2 dive bomb in falcon. I had in my minds eye of rush dog, coursing into dive bomb when I wanted to pvp.
Lol besides that, on the hunter side. Rush Dog and Praise seem to be about it for commands that he’ll listen too. And he doesn’t seem to want to attack consecutively. But ranter do a rush dog, then hang out with me while I kite and unload.
Havent really tried myself, but i’ve heard that Snatching works on flying bosses.
Hmm might be worth respecing out of praise for snatching then. Didnt take it cause it seemed meh…
For bosses I use Multi Shot and Dog Rush, Snatching is too circunstancial to add a class point on it.
Oh wow! Then, I assume a single point is worth it. Good thing I have like 4 to spare :0
What about full CON hunter, pet oriented? Anyone tried this?
Hello, wanted to ask…is Growling good ? I’m not interested much in PvP so i’m not sure about going for Hunter C3 or staying C2 and taking something else like Scout. (if growling isn’t much needed for PvE i would take hunter C3 only for rush dog lv 15…and even if it’s a strong as hell skill with nice dmg and all, even if targeting sometimes is kinda hard, using a rank for only 500 more dmg on it feels meh.)
At begin I was thinking about taking musketeer instead of cannoneer, since cannoneer didn’t work earlier with falconer circling, but now does…so i might have to re consider about it (the dmg is pretty high honestly…and even if musketeer have snipe…it have a much longer cd and the dmg is pretty much like two cannon shoot only, canoneer stuff have insanely low cds XD lol)
So scout was a kinda good choice…I mean…the 50% phy dmg attribute while in stealth + snipe would have been op XD Maybe I could still use it for letting the pet take the aggro thanks to stealth and camouflage. Gah! all this class choice is amazing, yet it’s killing me XD
What’s your opinion on it ?
