4 hunters hit 70

[accretion]

1. Feeding pets, monitoring 4 different pet happiness
2. Dealing with ammo on 4 hunters
3. Changing from guns to bows on 4 hunters
4. Aoe fears
5. Rogues
6. Hard to play to full potential in pvp, always relying on getting the jump
7. bc instances are frickin hard without blowing cooldowns and being overleveled

pluses:

1. lots of burst dmg (4x aimshot instadeath anyone?)
2. every prebc instance (except strath/scholo) is easymode

1. I set up a quick macro and just pop it frequently -- Fur's mod is probably better, I'm just lazy
2. I HIGHLY recommend buying the biggest quiver available. 24 slots means you only refill once a week or so
3. For my sanity, I decided to go bows/xbows only. Non-negotiable.
4. AoE Fear sucks, especially if the slaves run beyond /follow range. I usually get 2-3 "back" by re-following, but it's a huge annoyance, even in PvE.
5. Freezing Trap + AoE Fear is a nice foil, though they still pwn me eventually. (I run a Priest + 4 Hunters)
6. Agreed. Hunters are a ton of fun, but I'd think DoT classes would outshine them due to mitigation, etc.
7. Again, if you want to run instances, I'd recommend swapping out one hunter for either a Shaman or Priest. At that point, you should be able to do most instances at level. Prayer of Mending (Priest) is terrific for the Hunter pets that trade around aggro. It's not uncommon for me to cast that as my only heal and finish a group of 4 elites with all pets above 90% health. I've completed all instances up through Sethekk and once my team dings 70 (69 now) I will attempt the other 70-level instances.
