Hunter Leveling Build (30-39)

Hello again! Time to look at the next 10 points in my Hunter Leveling Build. As I noted in the last post, I'll be giving alternate suggestions for both Ferocity and Tenacity pets. The main difference being the style you wish to go with. Ferocity pets kill stuff faster, but Tenacity pets can tank several mobs at once. Really your choice. Your hunter's talents won't be affected at all by the choice.

Tier 5

Intimidation - 1/1 - Command your pet to intimidate the target on the next successful melee attack, causing a high amount of threat and stunning the target for 3 sec
This is a good talent to keep the target on your pet (and not you), the stun is nice as well. The main point to this talent though, is to unlock Bestial Wrath!

Bestial Discipline - 2/2 - Increases the Focus regeneration of your pets by 50/100%
Yes Please! Basically this doubles the amount of special attacks your pet can do in a given time! Put your next 2 points here.

Spirit Bond - 0/2 - While your pet is active, you and your pet will regenerate 1/2% of total health every 10 sec., and increases healing done to you and your pet by 5/10%
An okay talent. We're going to come back to this as a filler later, but I'm skipping this for now. If you're having a hard time keeping your pet alive, you may want to substitute this for Bestial Discipline

Tier 3

Go back and pick up Aspect Mastery now with your next point.

Tier 4

Put one point in Improved Mend Pet now. Mainly because there's not a lot else worth picking up.

Tier 6

Animal Handler - 2/2 - Increases your pet's expertise by 5/10, and increases the duration of your Master's Call effect by 3/6 sec
This talent is actually supposed to change to a straight up attack power boost(5/10%) in patch 3.2, so in forward looking, I'm putting my next two points here.

Frenzy - 3/5 - Gives your pet a 20/40/60/80/100% chance to gain a 30% attack speed increase for 8 sec after dealing a critical strike
Put your last 3 points from this section into Frenzy. It's a great talent to boost pet DPS. 60%(3 points) is supposed to be enough to keep the buff up pretty much 100%(the better your gear, the better chance of this)

Now onto your pets:
Ferocity

Tier 2

Bloodthirsty - 2/2 - Your pet's attacks have a 10/20% chance to increase its happiness by 5% and heal 5% of its total health
A great place to put your next 2 points! This heals your pet AND feeds your pet, all in one step!

---

I'm only going to go over the pet talents that we are taking, not the ones we're not taking, to save a little space1

Tenacity

Tier 2

Blood of the Rhino - 2/2 - Increases your pet's total Stamina by 2/4% and increases all healing effects on your pet by 20/40%
More HP and 40% more healing = a must have talent! Put your next 2 points here

---

As you can probably see, the main difference in pets is that the Ferocity talents will be leaning towards increasing DPS, and the Tenacity talents will lean toward survivability
