hunters - IWT facing target problems

[boxblizzard]

Yeah Hunters are still really fun for PVE but not really ideal for PVP except maybe Night Elf Ambush teams.

Mages don't care about facing when focusing on AoE and Warlock DoTs make them more forgiving. If on a Warlock you want to make sure you are facing a target (like a Rogue trying to backstab you) I remember at least the Warlock Drain Soul spell keeping my locks always facing their target. I had a much higher Rogue taunting me to attack him in a safe zone and it was actually pretty fun sending all 4 pets on him and doting him up and fearing him and/or otherwise facing him continuously while he melted. He did kill one of my characters a few times but my graveyard was much closer and I think he finally gave up after getting killed 7 or so times...

warlocks are doing the same IWT issues as hunters, is this correct? surely i am not forced to move away from classes with pets....

Interact with Target Class Behavior

Demon Hunter	No Restrictions
Druid	No Restrictions

So there we have it, hunters and locks are not optimal and will create extra steps creating problems.

I am really down about this, ive not had this problem previously as ive always avoided hunter and locks by chance but not for any other reason. Only now after many years i hit a brick wall.

oh dear indeed.....
