It's a lot easier with an AoE class or one that does not need to face the mobs to hit them. Also hunter pets can rob you of loot if you don't tag all the mobs before the pet nukes them. I mean, it oughta work OK but there are a lot better classes to do it.

As for key vs mouse movement, keys are easier as mouse movement gets out of sync over time. You'll still have to "align" your toons back up after you turn a corner or somehow end up facing the wrong direction but it shouldn't be too big of a deal in the lowbie dungeons.

in bfa hunter pets kills are lootable (as "aggressive" doesn't exist unlike classic where if you don't hit a mob you won't get loot)

That has not been my experience, but maybe I'm just misremembering.

maybe I don't get your point but for OP, who is talking about BfA/Legion hunters

a) your pet won't attack anything by default unless you make it (assist)
b) if somehow you put your pet in defensive and it is the one aggroing, I just tested that (it's hard with scaling to get a mob to attack your pet and your pet to solo it, I had to heal it but I didn't do anything else)

both case you get loot (if there is any) even if the hunter itself did 0 dmg

Hmm...well, I just tested that in the classic beta and even if I get hit and heal the pet, if I do not actually attack, I get no loot. Admittedly, I haven't tried it in BofA lately.
