5 Hunter Viable Again?

[Mokoi]

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.

We'll see how things scale with NR instances, but I just plowed Underbog with 3x level 65 hunters. I'm sure some of that is the new talents/mechanics but I'm still in shitty greens with the warlock chest/shoulder cloth heirlooms. I think a pet died like 3 times; twice due to tweaking macros so it kept Mend Pet rolling and once due to me pulling 3 groups of 4 at once. I can see this being seriously crazy once I get misdirect.

My problem was never pet threat, it was the fact that pets couldnt live through heroic trash in northrend. BC dungeons were a joke however.
