The WHU guild is an all-dwarven-hunter guild on Icecrown that gathers periodically for big in-game events. Hunters in this event were levels 80-90. Gordok Ogre Suits were gathered in the hundreds and stored in the guild bank, along with Elixir of Giant Growth to make us the biggest ogres possible for the raid.
A group of 8 hunters were assiged to PvP duty & horde killing, while the rest butchered Garrosh while our pets did tanking duty. About 100 hunters participated in this raid.Hunters Are Just Awesome - Boom De Yada SongWarcraftHuntersUnion2012-12-07 | Hunter community song with music & sound design by Balthazar, and singing by prominent members of the hunter community.

The cranes were recently made tameable in the MoP beta and they came with a bonus pet ability "trick" which is essentially just the ability to jump really high.
Crane hunter pets are found throughout Pandaria in the beta, and come in a variety of colors that are more attractive than the brown-red of the crane shown here; however, most of them are not yet tameable. The cranes can be found in green, white and bright pink and no doubt by the time Mists of Pandaria goes live all of these will be tameable as hunter pets.MoP Beta Hunter AoE and Self-HealingWarcraftHuntersUnion2012-05-08 | A look at AoE mob grinding in Mists of Pandaria, and how our new abilities and new self-heals make it amazingly awesome.
In this video I was BM specced and using only Spirit Bond to keep healed up with hordes of mobs attacking. AoE was a combination of the newly buffed Snake Trap, Explosive Trap, Multi-Shot, Beast Cleave, and A Murder of Crows.
This potent combo makes for some impressive AoE -- smaller numbers coming from a huge amount of sources.Dire Beast / Call Beast MoP Beta HunterWarcraftHuntersUnion2012-04-24 | This WoW video shows the new Mists of Pandaria talent Call Beast (now called Dire Beast) in action, as well as describing exactly howt he ability works and how it scales with hunter stats.
Dire Beast is one of the new level 75 hunter talents available in MoP. One of three different beasts appear -- a large bug, a white tiger, or an orange tiger -- but all are mechanically identical. The beast acts like a hunter pet in Assist stance, and if the hunter is actively attacking the beast will attack a total of 6 times during the ability, and restore 12 focus to the hunter.
The beast can be targeted and killed, and has health equal to 20% of the hunter health. The beast summoned by Dire Beast does base damage plus 41.7% of hunter RAP, and appears to inherit 100% crit, hit, and expertise from the hunter. The beast is not affected by hunter haste.
Overall Call Beast does around 1/3 the damage of A Murder of Crows, but can be used twice as often, and restores 12 focus, and has no focus cost. Right now at level 85 in the MoP beta, Call Beast looks a bit worse than A Murder of Crows, but we don't know for certain until we see how the numbers look at level 90.
As always in the MoP beta -- and in WoW in general -- everything is subject to change at any time.Kill Command MoP Beta HunterWarcraftHuntersUnion2012-04-24 | A WoW video of the Mists of Pandaria hunter changes to Kill Command - which are awesome. Also, I should have stopped recording halfway through and never tried to daze my pet. Especially since if you look carefully it was dazed a couple of other time earlier.
There are two big changes to Kill Command in MoP that make BM hunters' life much easier. The first is that it has a 100 yard activation range -- your pet still needs to be in melee to actually damage the target, but you can trigger Kill Command when you're pet is a bit away and it will save it up for when it gets there.
The other big improvement in MoP is that if your pet is not in melee range when you trigger Kill Command, the pet will speed to it's target as if it's under the effects of Charge (even if dazed -- really). This is a huge boon for BM hunters, especially during target switching fights.
Now BM hunters will no longer need to wait on their signature shot and nerf their rotations while their pet is moving from one target to another.
Also, it turns out there's a limit to how many giant wasps your pet can have attacking it without any heals or dps, before the pet eventually dies. Who knew?A Murder of Crows MoP Hunter BetaWarcraftHuntersUnion2012-04-23 | This WoW video shows the new Mists of Pandaria hunter talent A Murder of Crows in action, as well as describes exactly how the ability works and how it scales with hunter stats.
A Murder of Crows is one of the new level 75 hunter talents available in MoP. From testing it appears that a total of 15 crows appears during the first 15 seconds of the ability, and then continue to attack for the next 15 seconds.
The damage of A Murder of Crows scales with 4% of hunter ranged attack power, and 100% of hunter hit, expertise, and crit. It does not seem to scale with haste at all. The crows in the murder do base damage in addition to the 4% RAP, but we don't yet know what that base damage will be at level 90 (at 85 the base damage was 790 on a level 85 creature).
The crows in A Murder of Crows can be targeted and they do have health and can be killed -- their health is equal to 5% of the hunter health.
Overall A Murder of Crows is a pretty sweet new dps cooldown for WoW hunters with a nice graphic appearance. The dps of it does ramp up a bit, so in burst dps situations hunters will want to trigger it a bit early so that the damage is hitting hardest when we need it to.WHU vs SylvanasWarcraftHuntersUnion2012-02-21 | Hunter open collab music by Sharm: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYBxikpbhDs
WHU Guild vs. Sylvanas. It turns out that her multi-shot ability one-shots level 75 hunters, and is not limited by the AoE cap (which is what usually protects us and our pets from higher level hordies).WHU vs. the Whale Shark level 65 Hunter EventWarcraftHuntersUnion2011-09-18 | In this WHU dwarven hunter event we went to Vashj'ir and conquered the Whale Shark! The fight was long, but went pretty smoothly.

The problem with BM right now is that their PVE rotation is insanely simple. I demonstrate here by turning it into a single-button macro.
Note that at higher levels it's *possible* that BM may want to use imp steady (depending on the damage diff between cobra and steady). In which case BM would need to use two buttons.Hunter Tanking Rotface & Kiting SlimesWarcraftHuntersUnion2010-08-20 | WoW: Hunter pet tanking rotface while kiting slimes in ICC.

This was normal mode, and with the 30% buff, but probably even doable without the buff. Hunters are great at slime kiting, and rotface hits lightly enough for pet tanking. Pet had about 40k health, buffed, in this video.Cataclysm Beta Hunter: Big Red Pet ChangesWarcraftHuntersUnion2010-08-19 | WoW Cataclysm beta hunter preview: changes to bestial wrath and beast within remove the cc immunity.

http://www.warcrafthuntersunion.comWHU Level 19 Hunter RaidWarcraftHuntersUnion2010-06-15 | WHU guild level 19 dwarven hunter event. The idea was to hit the arena and face off against a level 80 prot warrior, and then a level 80 hunter. However we picked up a bunch of followers who liked to wait until we were engaged and then jump into the fray. Level 80 mages and ret pallies really hurt level 19 hunters.
However, the day was ours. We killed off all the griefers and managed to kill our scheduled opponents as well!Utgarde Pinnacle Speed RunWarcraftHuntersUnion2010-04-22 | Speed run of Utgarde Pinnacle: 10min 50sec.

Over 300 hunters leveled up to level 10, trained pets from across Azeroth, and embarked on a legendary event of epic fun and dragon killing. The raid wiped once on the world dragon emiriss, and had a couple 80s helping out. The level 10s did the vast majority of the work.
