5 Hunter Viable Again?

[Firstcow]

I have some hopes that they will be able to do at least some instances with the pets tanking. With the zero-cooldown Misdirection thing it has possibilities, though I'm expecting them to put a cooldown on that before too long.

As completely OP as my 3-hunter sub-group is right now in at-level BC content, it'll be interesting to see how they do in NR instances. The skeptic in me says "BAH...they won't scale...don't get your hopes up" but the wishful thinker in me says "just...maybe..."

Let me kick the wishful thinker in you in the nuts right away. Hunter pets can't tank heroics, period. Even if you have 5 of them.

This proves nothing useful.

Yes, when you grossly overgear content, you can do nifty things...

i dont know how grossly you can over gear the current tier but fair enough. though i think the point of the post is you said it was dead as though not a chance it would work and he was showing an example of viability. also dont take it so personally i think it was posted more for the "here watch this its fun" effect than trying to prove you wrong... it turned a thread of nay saying into a fun read for those that had never seen such things as a worm tanking sindy.

agreed, nobody "grossly" over gears Sindy 10 man hard mode.. that's pretty much on par with BiS gear :P

So wait, that means 4 hunters + priest is viable now?

Yes. It is a perfectly "viable" comp. It is ideal for those seeking a mediocre battleground team, a dismal arena setup, and a marginal PvE team that will barely tackle content (if at all) unless it considerably over-gears the stuff.

They can!
Just a few days ago I posted a thread telling about my first heroic; and I used four bears as tanks.
