1 edit | 19 Hunter Twink advice wanted
Lost all interest in doing any pre-Ulduar raids. Arena partners aren't on much. So now only raiding Ulduar. I have more time, so I dusted off my 19 twink, and had a blast. My 80, horde alt and my twink...all Priests.
So I rolled a baby hunter, and want to twink her out for the 19 bracket.
I looked up gear recommendations for the 19 bracket and found two different schools of thought. One was to stack stam and Int to the point of wearing cloth. The other to stack Agility.
Any words of wisdom are welcome. Boe 19 items are fairly low priced on the AH lately. My spouse will run me through WC and DM. I already banked the +4 stats to chest enchant.
For those that have not looked at thier 19 twinks since the nerf, blizzard gave back to clothies. Spidersilk boots are now level 19 (instead of 20) and there are BOE green shoulders with stam and +5 spellpower. |

1 edit | The whole grind of leveling additional chars to 80 is making me think of rolling a 19 twink. Is there a class that is markedly more OP than the others at that level? What are the most common classes for twinks? (Engineering for goggles? Herbalism for lifebloom?)
edit: Is it also worth putting the BoA stuff on a twink or are there more powerful gear available at that level? -- If you analyze it I believe the very heart and soul of conservatism is libertarianism. - RONALD REAGAN, Reason Magazine, Jul. 1, 1975 |

| reply to Phedre_ ok hi guys 
as for most op class in that bracket then it is a hunter. for gearing him/her out u should always stack agi. Really u do not need intell, agi is best for crits. Hunters are easily playable btw so if u get the right gear and chants all u would need then is to faceroll keyboard and bam....u win!
hope that helped  |

  Krisnatharok 0311 Scout Premium join:2009-02-11 Sterling, VA | Does it matter what pet you pick? I've never played a hunter before... this is going to devolve into "what bow do I use?" and "what gear from what instances to farm?"
Is the STV hat still better or should I go with the engineering goggles? |

| For a pet i strongly agree with a spider...this is because of there ability to net pple, great for chasing down enemy fc (flag carriers). For bows you should get venomstrike or if u got the badges then get the boa Bow. For head you should get the stv one definately. for shoulders get the boa ones too. For chest get blackened defias armor. Thats all i know from top of my head, will finish list soon once i get on pc cause i'm on mobile now. |

Is that not that much of a trouble? |

join:2009-04-15 | lol, i had no idea the goggles detect rouges....thanks for the tip but really the stv hat wins hands down due to that deliscous stam! |

| I'm pretty sure they do--can't tell cuz I'm at work atm. Something like "slightly increases your stealth detection" is usually found on such items.
I'd assume a defensive hunter wouldn't need to worry about rogues if you keep your back to a frost trap. |

| reply to Phedre_ For making a real twink hunter nowdays takes so much time and money. First off, agility and stam are your friends. Half the part of being a twink is staying alive...forever. 19 hunters now with the right gear/enchants are pulling right around 2k health. Aspect of the monkey with the right agility/stam combo makes for 1900+ health and just slight of 30% dodge!
Lucky Fishing hat+libram of constitution. Have to do the chain quest and get the quest reward staff from WC. (can't remember what its called). I made my hunter over a year ago so its been awhile, but there is specific gear to really be a twink.
IMO you are only a twink if you go with the best possible, or very close to it. A couple decent gears and cheaper enchants with 1k health in the 19 bracket doesn't cut it as a twink anymore.
GOODLUCK! |
