Imo there is no point of using s+s all the time. Even with spear switching back to shield between attacks is useful. 2h sword dmg is not that bad but s/c debuff and some slash resisted enemies hurt as ppl mentioned above.
Even if your opponent moves like headless chicken you have high rate of side styles but back styles can be easily counter strafed by moveing backwards (even moonwalk) and mouse turning continuesly. Still duable with reaver since you have cap or nearly cap swing speed but its different for spear. It's also ok to fail on levi couple of times but one or two failure on back stun makes you end up dead. |

Just to keep this mega Hunter thread growing...
BAck stun style I have given up on. We know the rangers/reavers etc can get their side stun but they are using quick weapons. What about our side combat speed debuff. Anyone use this in practice with good effect? Or do our slow swing speeds still hamper us? |
|
Debuff styles do not work imo or not correctly.

Like anything it requires some practice and there are several methods of getting it too to counter someone's.. "Counter" technique. Also you can either grab a fast spear or use the swing speed advantage and stop melee for a moment to get a better chance at next swing. I loved this on my hunter on Live but then sword dealt way more damage and I went with that. And fully buffed pet ...lol.

As far as the side stun style debuff is concerned that is easier to perform. I will admit with Celteen that I dont see it having much of an effect, but its hard to tell in the heat of battle alot of times. I know Intimid used it alot and I have used it on occasion and will probably switch it with my rear stun style on my hotbar once I hit 8L0.
As far as the "use a faster spear" method is concerned, that is not possible for me. I'm using the 2 fastest spears available to me. There is one a bit faster, but its only 16.2 dps. I agree with you though Ist, that it can be done and done effectively if practiced alot, but like I always tell people.... Figure out what you do and do it as good as you can. If you have tried and tried to get the back stun off and you cant do it consistantly then focus on what you can do well. |

Wanna know how to be a good hunter?
Ask Intimid what his spec/ras are and copy him. No lie, he is the ONLY hunter on the entire server I have any trouble in a straight up 1v1.

I will admit that you get my hunter more often than I get your assasin, but I have killed your Inf multiple times in a straight up 1 vs 1 fight. If you dont evade 50%+ of my attacks you die, if you do evade more than 50% of my attacks you win. Its that simple. Intimid's spec is not important. What makes intimid tough is 2 things mainly. 1) PD4-5 which Siarien has and he is also VERY tough now. 2) He can perform the rear stun effectively in combat. Those are the 2 main things that set him apart from me at least.

If you catch me when I don't have all buffs up, if you manage to shoot me from max bow range from an odd angle and I don't get to you fast enough, or if you manage to get 2 pets on me at once(that was pretty epic) Intimid can run up to me and kill me. Thats the difference. Thats why I say ask Intimid how he is specced.

hunter can charm mobs, the process is:
- he charms a mob and send it to u - when u hit the pet u get agro and he realease the mob with u having agro (or u release it just before mob is hit? ![]() - he call his castable pet and send it to u...tata 2 pets and 1 hunter on u ![]() It's the thrill of the chase
and I'm coming after you. |
