This is the hunter class page of World of Warcraft

Inescapable Stalkers

From an early age, the call of the wild draws some adventurers from the comfort of their homes into the unforgiving primal world outside. Those who endure become hunters. Masters of their environment, they are able to slip like ghosts through the trees and lay traps in the paths of their enemies.

Class Information

Hunters battle their foes at a distance or up close, commanding their pets to attack while they nock their arrows, fire their guns, or ready their polearms. Though their weapons are effective at short and long ranges, hunters are also highly mobile. They can evade or restrain their foes to control the arena of battle.

Features

Melee Damage

Hunters are rugged trackers who can use venom, explosives and traps to damage enemies up close.

Ranged damage

Whether wielding bows, guns, or crossbows, hunters are deadly with ranged weapons. They are capable of dishing out consistently high damage.

Pets

Hunters tame the beasts of the wild, and those beasts serve in return by assaulting their enemies and shielding them from harm.

Thanks to their pets and damage output, hunters are effective at completing quests and leveling quickly, even when they’re alone.
