Welcome back to the Scattered Shots, the weekly World of Warcraft Hunter class column. This week we continue our “So you want to be a hunter” leveling series as we look at Levels 60-70 and see why I really feel they’re the best class in the game. So join me, Eddie Carrington, Brigwyn from The Hunting Lodge blog and podcast, as we explore what’s in store for us hunters.

Maybe one day hunters being able to tame duids as their very own pet. Wouldn’t that be awesome? I want to thank Dwarffinator and Lissana of Restokin.com for making this picture and sending it in for me to use.

This is part six of our, now eight part “So you want to be a hunter” leveling guide series. In what was originally to be our final guide, we will now instead cover 10 levels, 60-70, with levels 71 through 80 coming next week. Part of this change is in response to your feedback wanting a bit more information on the skills.

As we do in each, this week we’ll review what skills you learn, suggest talent builds for both you and your pet as you level, we’ll highlight some suggested dungeon quests that match your current level.

We’ve 6 previous installations in this series. Here’s what we’ve talked about so far.

• Part 1: We reviewed racials and their impact on the hunter class. Reviewed each of the current races and what the benefits were of each racial.
• Part 2: We quickly talked about the first nine levels. We also went on to talk about each of the three hunter talent trees and their basic play style.
• Part 3: Last week we discussed what happened from levels 10 through 20. We also went over the quests to learn how to tame your first pet.
• Part 4: We covered some of the covered attacks, buffs and spells. We also began looking at how to teach your pet new skills by applying pet talents.
• Part 5: We covered levels 21 through 40. We ended up with you getting your epic riding mount and you now can wear mail. From now on completing quests and gaining levels will be much faster.
• Part 6: Is where we started to see that we were learning more new ranks than new spells as we leveled from 41 to 60. We ended our time in Outlands with our first flying mount.

That’s where we’ve been. But where are we heading? This week we’ll be levels 60 to 70. We’ll wrap up Outlands, head out to Northrend. Next week we’ll wrap it up by reaching level 80. Then we’ll focus on gearing up join everyone having fun storming the castle to tackle the Sindragosa, the Lich King and his Scourge minions and anything else Blizzard can through our way as part of Patch 3.3.
