Tribunalx sent us this great video about something that's fallen out of fashion lately: Hunter soloing. Back in the day, when Mend Pet was still affected by plus healing (back when there was plus healing), Hunters would routinely take down Azuregos (http://www.wowwiki.com/Azuregos) by themselves, but they've since had to sit on the sidelines while other classes stepped into the solo arena (http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/05/30/paladin-lays-the-solo-smackdown-on-onyxia/). But now, with Mend Pet and Bestial Wrath glyphs (http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#cVbGzggRbzheotcbZxc0i:ciV0cM), a Hunter stacking Stamina in PvP gear, the new version of Deterrence (http://www.wowwiki.com/Deterrence), and pets with their own Tenacity talents (http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/08/14/scattered-shots-pet-talent-trees-in-the-wrath-beta/), Hunter soloing is possible yet again.
As Tribunalx says in the video, it's not really easy, and there's a lot you have to keep track of (and Hunters definitely aren't the only class that can do this -- there's probably a Paladin soloing UK and/or a Death Knight out there as well). But it is definitely possible, as you can see above. Maybe we're experiencing a renaissance of Hunter solo possibilities -- next up, The Nexus? Good luck with the Ormorok gauntlet.http://www.wowinsider.com/media/feedlogo.gif (http://www.wowinsider.com)Hunter solos Utgarde Keep (http://www.wowinsider.com/2009/04/27/hunter-solos-utgarde-keep/) originally appeared on WoW Insider (http://www.wowinsider.com) on Mon, 27 Apr 2009 19:00:00 EST.
