If you have a Mage in the group he will Polymorph (Sheep, Turtle, or Pig) Humanoids and Beasts.
If you have a Rogue he will Sap any Humanoids.
But if you have a Hunter, he can trap any kind of mob.
Of course that some mobs are immune to any kind of crowd control and they can also be resisted.
In order to trap you will use Freezing Traps.
What do you need to know for Chain Trapping:
If you are pulling for a trap don’t use misdirection on the tank or another player.
Don’t use serpent sting.
After mob is traped make sure to turn off your auto attack or hit Escape.
To pull a caster mob hit them with silencing shot.
Don’t place a trap in the way of other mobs.
After placing a trap, try to wait for cooldown before pulling so you have a trap ready in case of resist.
Once mob is trapped, move away to give yourself time to put another trap.
If mob is running to you and cooldown is not ready use scatter shot to give you some time for another trap.
Your pet can help you out if you needmore time to place a trap. Just call him back when trap is ready.
Here’s the video I made for chain trapping. I will try to add other videos inside Intances on the future.
The following video will show you why is important to use your pet when kiting some mobs.
I’m not really kiting here so i don’t dps or use the jump learn in lesson 1.
Kiting is an important skill used mostly in higher instances and raids. but also will help you do some group quests on your own.
But you can laso kite for fun. Just try not to bother other players, mostly newbies when kiting. If you bring an elite mob to a city to kill everyone inside it may be fun for you but not to others that can be kill when you do that.
So, you are a hunter level 70 and you still don’t know how to kite? Not possible. Let’s learn how.
If you are a low level hunter some of this exercise are not for you but you still will learn the basis.
To learn how to kite you must follow this simple tips and practice. If you have a quest that require to kill an elite mob, before grouping try to do it yourself as a hunter.
Remember that you can kite a mob that you need to kill or you can kite a mob just for the pleasure to do it and bring him to a city.
Depending on your objective you will have to use different shoots. more damage if you intend to kill him or less damage, using rank 1 shoot if you want to kite him for a long run. Whatever the reason is always fun to do it.
This is not the same as chain traping, that will be another day.
So let’s start with a few tips:
Pick your target.
Get a spot clear of mobs. Or adapt on your way.
Mana up before starting to kite.
Put on Cheeta is the mob is fast.
Have your pet ready. Depending on the mob sometimes your pet will avoid that the mob evade. Or if his getting to close send the pet, feint death and continue.
If you intend to kill him use Aimed Shoot first, turn and start running.
This is the key aspect. While you run, jump, turn around 180 degres and shoot, then turn around again and keep running.
Use serpent sting on him all the time if you want to do damage.
Arcane Shot to keep aggro on you.
You can use rank 1 shoots so you don’t use a lot of mana if you want to kite him long distances just for fun.
Use autoshots when possible and if you want to minimize distance a bit.
If you get stunned, send pet and FD, then remove growl and keep kitting once Feint death is almost up again.
Use your enviroment. Cliffs and narrow passages will allow you to make more distance.
Check your map so you don’t run to a dead end or hostile zone.
If you arrive to a town just watch guards kill him. If you kite more than one sometimes they will kill all guards as well. See the last part of the video.
