What has me interested is the change to Hunter's Mark, it gets more powerful with each ranged attack on the target? But is it gonna start off with the normal amount of rap (110, or w/e it is at 70) and then get stronger, or is it gonna start low, say 50 or so, and then work up to that number?
We dont get a talent point refund.
Also, hunter's mark now starts at a base 110 and stacks up to 30 times, 10 AP per shot iirc. Or something similar.
Note the stealth nerf of flare, a pretty bad nerf for arena, and also the increase in the gladiator xbow's speed as well. Also the nerf on entrapment is pretty annoying too. They only changed mend pet as a hunter managed to solo azuregos as well, though I'm not complaining about it as it is a neat upgrade for solo levelling.
Other than that its a fairly uninfluential patch, I would have said least of our worries is raid dps, which is being addressed with the hunters mark buff, and our current position as the worst arena class left unchanged. Sucks to be a pvp hunter at 70..

If I Remember Correctly
If I read it correctly (and I may not be), it looks like instead of standing around while my mend pet runs to completion, I should be able to instantly cast him with it, and then go about doing other things. Like killing. Or continue to kill. Or fishing. Or standing around doing nothing, enjoying the fact that I could be doing something if I really wanted to.
If this is a correct interpretation, I'll very much enjoy the change as it should add some survivability when trying to heal in the middle of a fight.

Can you stack your HoT to the pet now?.....
It's going to be broken if it does....

Yeah, also most hunter fight more then 1 thing at a time, maybe 3, and if you're trying to mend pet and have something hitting you, the cast isnt going to work so well, so imo this mend pet = sexually arousing.
Hehe, the new mend pet makes me all happy in my pants (to coin a phrase from a good friend)
Also, as I am very heavy into raiding/instancing, Avoidance is IMO the best thing to come to pets!! Cobra Reflexes, meh, might put it on My Owl, but avoidance is going to be instantly trained to Porkrind as that will be invaluable for keeping my pet alive!

I haven't read anything one way or the other but I would have to guess no. Probably the best we can hope for is if they make it so you can target any pet not just your own, and then have multiple hunters stack them all up on each others pets. I'm gonna guess that aint gonna happen, but we'll see.

Has anyone noticed a drop in their DPS? With AoTH and my pet out to get my extra 2% I was doing 305.4 DPS when I logged last night. Today i'm doing 300.2. I made sure all gear was the same. Did they nerf something else? 5 DPS is kind of a big deal when you're not the most powerful guy in the guild. I'm full BM spec.

98.29% of your original damage. Sounds like that talent either isn't working or isn't displaying on the paperdoll.
Edit: Can't log on yet, but on the Test server, different ranks of Mend Pet could be stacked.
This helps offset the 66% reduction in effectiveness for the Improved Mend Pet cleansing effect (although the talent does have other benefits now).

MP is no longer stackable.

Not even the different ranks? *sigh*
So now it'll takes three times as long to remove negative effects from my pet.
