I hate flowers.

Correction.

I hate flowers that try to kill you.

So since I have my flying mount now, I decided I'd take a trip out to the Botanica! I mean, the Beast Lord Tunic is out there, and I'd REALLY like to get two pieces of that to get that hawt -4 second trap cooldown set bonus.

Well, the group starts a little sketchy - I've never been there before, and our group leader decides to let the other Hunter in the group - another 70 Hunter decked out in all sorts of PVP epics - do the trapping and Hunter's Marking and whatnot. I inform the group leader that I have 5/5 Improved, but he doesn't notice. His loss of 110 ATP, IMO.

Well, I decide to look at this Hunter's gear again, and I notice something earth-shatteringly frightening.

His hit rating is atrocious.

Yes, that's right, a Hunter in mostly epics has 36 Hit Rating, compared to my 132 (hit-capped for a Draenei). Plus, someone apparently didn't inform this guy what Steady Shot is - it was not present at ALL on his Recount break-down of damage done.

So once all was said and done, the charts looked like this:

Epic Hunter (Kittymaster) versus me, in all blues, one green, and one epic.

I mean, what IS it with Beast Mastery hunters that don't know how to play? My god!

BM hunters are good if they know the 1:1 combo. i dunno wtf that hunter is smoking. Even for pvp, hunters NEED 80 hit rating. In my pvp gear i think i have 84? Oh... btw.. you know the hit cap for hunters that dont have surefooted/are ne? plz and ty :)

142 Hit Rating. Remove the following if it applies to you:

-15.77 if I am Draenei or raid consistently with a Draenei Hunter/Warrior/Paladin in my party
-47.31 if I am Survival, specced for Surefooted
-47.31 if my raid has a reliable, consistant Balance Druid specced for Improved Faerie Fire
