I'm currently leveling a 5 man mixed team with a hunter in it and I find the only annoying thing is utilizing the traps, If I lay them without trap launcher I have to have the tank walk the mobs through them, if you use repeater it slows things down a decent a mount while leveling.

As for the rest of their abilities I use ISBoxer and have never used HKN so I'm not sure if you're able to do this but I simply do

for single target:

When I press 2 send to my hunter

2 - Serpent Sting macro (/castsequence reset=target Serpent Sting, Null)
3 - Explosive Shot
4 - Kill Shot
5 - Black Arrow
6 - Arcane Shot
7 - Steady Shot (will be changed to Cobra shot at 81)


This will basically cast serpent sting once per target, cast explosive shot and black arrow on cooldown, cast kill shot when the target is below 20% health. If everything is on CD it will cast Arcane shot to eat focus and if there is no focus it will cast Steady shot to build focus.

I'm sure there's ways to optimize this more but while leveling it does ok.

As for the traps the way I'm managing them for single target is as I approach a mob I will press my spread key to stop my 2 mages and shaman but the hunter will stay on follow. I'll get the hunter to drop his trap (without launcher) where I'll be tanking the mob, then when the fight starts I'll have him cast step back and deterrence to get away from any cleave.
