Blog Azeroth

Blog Name : Survival Hunters Anonymous

Address : Survival Hunters Anonymous

Blog Purpose : I couldn't find a resource anywhere, outside of massively complicated theorycrafting sites, that could explain what the benefits of picking the Survival Tree were.

Furthermore, most of that number-crunching was complicated, and while crucial to understanding the advantage of Survival, could possibly frighten off future Survival Hunters.

So I decided to fill the gap created by lack of awareness and readily diffused, yet detailed knowledge on the class by creating a resource for Hunters who wanted to know about the Survival tree, which would be ideally easy to understand, funny, and informative.

Character Name : Trackhoof

Dec. 2007 - March 2008.

R.I.P, Survival Hunters Anonymous.

I accomplished what I set out to do with it; as such, I regard it as a success, and it will stay in its current form.

However, much like Yogurt from Spaceballs : The Movie, I will live on in my new blog; Back-Track.

It's been fun, guys.

-Track.

*sighs, puts a mark on the whiteboard*

You know have the Approval of the Penguin.

I'll have to give this blog a look-see. If survival looks interesting I might even consider getting my hunter above level 2!

That was rather short.

True.

I'm sure there's plenty of nuances I missed, and inaccuracies up the ying-yang, but the meat and bones of basic and intermediate survival hunterage is right there, encapsulated in roughly 3 months' worth of posts.

Advanced stuff would've meant me going into great and tremendous detail about shot-rotation specifics, weapon speeds, et cetera, which would've no doubt helped a few people out to a great degree, as well as proper raid etiquette.

I honestly thought I'd be going on longer than I did; I had planned to outline gear choices pre-Kara for several other bits of armor, using every hunter trap (including Immolation and Explosion traps), Readiness as a primary asset of the Survival Hunter, raiding, educating other hunters, and a few other topics, including extensions of my "Know Your Role" posts, but it doesn't make sense to keep going when your heart isn't in it anymore.

*shrug* besides, as I said earlier, it's a success in my eyes. I may have not made it into the definitive Survival Hunter-ing resource, but it's a damn good one.

But going into the deep material is al that much more interesting.
It's what i'm digging into a little bit right now on my own blog, but it's slow going.

And there's always new patches and other related material that can be written about.

A good artist is never done.
