Is 5 hunter team good for anything?

[Murlocky]

Was just wondering if it's any good, or should I just roll 5 paladin and exchange them to 1 pala 4 dks in the long run?

[dupheadss]

It depends what are you wanting to use them for ? Pve, Pvp ect ect

[Jakkre]

Depends on the expansion.
5 BM hunter are decent for pvp on cata.

[Murlocky]

Oh sorry about misinformation, that would be WOTLK and mostly PVP.

5 Frost DKs (I have tried all combos, best one is frost)
Make all, including main, Interact With target (IWT) and Click To Move
Use free ISBOXER http://forum.warmane.com/showthread.php?201828
Watch example of 5 Blood DKs owning https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_lDIAPStxg at 1:55min

Note: It will take you a year to master these and set up ISBOXER and macros correctly, so you can silence, heal, stun efficiently.

Don't know what 5 Frost DK from Cata has to do with Hunters in WotLK or where you got the "year to master" from. O.o

Anyway back on topic.

Have heard of a few people using 5x hunters in WotLK as twinks but I can't remember the last time I saw them at max level.
Generally speaking you want some good healing abilities so I don't think they would fare as well as other classes in PvP. They'd be good as DPS in raids ofc since they are easy to manage.

Best 5man PvP setups imo are 1x DK with 4x Ret, 5x Shaman and 5x Druid. 5x DK or 5x Ret will also work pretty well.

I have seen one guy who is levelling 1x Ret with 4x Enhancement Shaman but I have no idea what that is going to look like at 80 tbh. Never played Enhancement before.

I like my 4 bm hunter and disc priest combo...but Im using em for PVE and its pretty strong. Not sure how familiar you are with buggtracking, but huntards have some bugs that would impact on PVP, like deterrance (which doesnt really work like it should ex: cheap shot goes thru when active) or traps dont have the radius they should have. Hopefuly they would fix those soon. Anyways I regret not rolling orc, but I guess Night elf will pay off as soon as I tame those spirit beasts.

I already have a multiboxing setup, but have never tried hunters for real. Thanks for the initial guide tho, others might find use of it. :)

I wouldn't try hunters on wotlk since you have to deal with the deadzone/minimum range to your opponents to be able to shoot them, also the lack of heals won't help you at all especially in PvP.

On cata or panda hunters work much better, no deadzone. The instant damage from hunters works great.
I've tested a 20x hunter + 5x druid setup somewhere else, this was the result :

If i were you i would stick to dk's, shaman & paladins on wotlk.

Seems legit. 5 frost/blood DK's might be fancy dandy.

[Jakkre]

4bm hunter + 1resto shami might work.
Bestialwrath+bl/hero for imba burst dmg.
Main problem is that its super hard to kite enemys as a multiboxer so once a few melee sit on ur *** u gonna have a problem.
Imo best 5 man team on wotlk is 1dk 4ret followed by 5frost dk.
There is a intersting mechanic with rune tap on wotlk. Glyph of rune tap heals the party by 10% so 5 DKs can heal every 30sec the whole party by 60%.

5 frost DKs are very strong if you're experienced but if not, you'll die very fastly. I think it's better to start with a Blood DK team, you'll get less kill but you'll be more resistant.

Frost dks are extremely strong, time to time I multibox my 403 x5 frost dks, but does take time to learn. My UI consists of 60+ keybindings, and having a keybind for each Lichborne, Frostitude, silence, deathgrip for each of my toons to play efficiently.



As you notice my main character (Everdeath) does the lowest damage, strange? The reason is because, everyone aims the head of the dragon, therefore I keep my distance from my main character from my other characters so when my main is being attacked I can simply use my other characters to deathgrip the enemy away from the main, and repeat the process which ultimately stops you dieing.
