Here's one I built for BM, I built it myself and never tested it on the PTR...so it may suck the big wang.

http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?hunter= ... 0000000000

I may also go with a different one at 2pm...if I find better. I just want to be able to max out BM for the 51 bonuses, without completely gimping myself. Unfortunately that spec. sacrifices aimed shot. It also sacs Imp. mark (which I had for raiding) but the note on it no longer states the melee bonus, so fuck it. /shrug

I have a non raiding lock I'm going to go full out demonology on, for shits and giggles. I'm not posting that spec. because I seriously doubt anyone would want to use it, it's a balls out 'let's have fun in the bg' spec without even being the best pvp spec. I'm sure.

Oh, and I know a lot of hunters are not going to stay BM. I have enough agi gear to go w/ that respec...but I really like BM so I'll see how viable I can keep it. :)

Me? Only trash. :lol: We're up to Mother at this point. Hopefully we'll finish up before WotLK but we'll see how far we get. We're still raiding.

I have no idea what spec I'm going to use today. There is too much stuff, and not enough points/levels atm

If I were you I'd get the top talent in your spec of choice and go play. you should be testing the mechanics of new abilities to see which you like. The minor stat-increasing talents will be pretty pointless since your gear will change wholesale. Personally, I'm going to play with the new prot war 51-pointer and my hunter's exotic pets.

I'm sure I'll be blasted for not going Combat, but since I came back to WoW, I've been playing on a PvP server and having more fun than I thought. I don't plan on ever looking into Raiding (had more than my fair share of it in EQ), I'm just after some good ole fashion PvP'ing.

http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?rogue=00300000000000000000000000000050000000000000000000000000320232030322121350105001000

I'm 58, and it's nice to come up to someone and pop them for a 2k crit Ambush. Is it cheap? yea sure... is it fun?... well, for me it is! It is awesome when you come across a good PvP'er that doesn't lose composer. I've had some close battles.

When I'm lvling i'll use Remorseless Attacks, but for now, i'm letting my friend catch up to me so we can dual PvP.

Enjoying the new specs, the achievements make even a 15-minute WoW-break "productive", and the freed-up bank space from all my mounts and pets is great. Sure, there's lots of changes, and my crit % isn't as high as it once was, but it'll iron out. =)

I am really digging the warriors soloability in prot spec now. I specced prot and now I've been able to do elite quests with no problems. Sword and board is an absolute beast of a talent, that and shockwave makes multi mob tanking super easy.

The glyphs are overpowered, or at least seem to be to me.

Free heroic strike and the additional sunder on a second mob seem way OP. I love it, though. If either of those were prot talents, they would be some of the best prot talents, heh.

Some glyphs do seem strong but I almost think we're to view them as another flavour of talent points.

So anyway... content is totally trivial right now. I think we did heroic MGT in record time last night with no cc (an occasional sap) and I just AE tanked everything. And my prot war has only kara and some early badge gear, since I put him on the shelf.

Makes me wonder if WOTLK content will be harder in some way, because threat generation seems much better now. I think my dps was much improved as a tank, too. From revenge, shield slam and shockwave, there's a lot there.

There's a difference between "being able to solo" and "being able to kill crap at better than a snail's pace".

5/3/53 will be my final spec, am currently 1/3/52 though. 1/2 in spell reflect just for the utility other wise pretty straight forward. Currently rocking socks with it.

11/50/0 Fire mage. Good times. If I run Mage Armor with the Mage Armor glyph, I never have mana issues. With Molten Armor sometimes I run into some trouble. Living bomb is nice in places like Hyjal with AE packs, in other places it's kinda strange.

Tried out a 9/52/0 MM spec just for kicks. I was interested in seeing how I would do in Hyjal which has always had Mages and Warlocks at the top of the meters for the waves.

Exotic pets overall atm are a waste of talent points due to not being able to get Go For The Throat for the energy gain to maintain the pets dps. id just get a cat ( one of the top dps pets atm) for raids, you will be happy with its dps.

I use http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=ctbMzgxRVu0gsZ0eVb atm, noticed a pretty nice dps upgrade and broke 3k dps on gorefiend this week.

I see alot of hunters use http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=ctbMzgxRVu0ekx0eMo so ill probably respec to it and see how much better it is. Worry me bout losing out on 18% crit strike damage and 1 pt in gftt just to get 20% xtra pet damage. But who knows. Also alot of people do not go with animal handler cause blizz posted that pets share a % of the masters hit. Not sure if it has gone in or not, but if it has not then im not noticing a drop in its dps.
