PvP Hunter - Talent distributionFollow

#1 Nov 27 2004 at 8:03 AM Rating: Decent
Hi,

I am very much in doubt about the best talent distribution for a Hunter (for 1v1 PvP play): the spirit bond looks very tempting, but is it really all that?
My idea was to go for it and just run like hell in duels while my pet deals DMG; if the opponent attacks the pet it's perfect since hunters are much stronger at range than in melee.
On the other hand, as a hunter the most important thing is to keep away from melee fights, so the Scatter Shot, Wing Clip and Counter Attack abilities are extremely usefull for that...

So now my question is: is 20 HP/pet strike enough or isn't it worth wild? If I look at some high level weapons dealing 40+ DPS I'm not so sure about it anymore ...

I made 2 talent distributions and I wonder which would be best for PvP play:
