Hunter problems exists really only in 5s, and they're pretty much the same problem as raids.

As a phys dps class using mana, often in raiding, your group composition looks like Spriest, feral druid, resto sham, and 2 hunters.

Compare it to casters or melee in raids:

3 locks, elemental sham, boomkin
2 rogues, arms warr, fury warr, and enhancement sham

In arena, if you have a sham, windfury is better than GoA for rogues/warrs/ret palys. Rarely do you see a feral in 5s too. So we have no real synergy (drain team is probably most synergistic). In arena 5s, we do provide a 100 AP buff, which isn't spectacular, but we get no benefit from just about every other class.

Not saying teams with hunters can't be gladiators, just pointing out the mechanics.

And even if you were running circles, if you think about it...Why would you WANT scarebeast to be on a 30 yd range? I'd rather have it short range instacast if I'm a druid.

I think you're confusing druid with arena spec resto druid. :P

As a druid I'd rather it wasn't changed at all. Pre 2.4.whatever if you were within range of a hunter's scare beast and could see their cast bar you could pop out of form. Now things are more difficult as BG's are generally swarming with hunters. It's one thing to keep tabs on the hunter in front of you but them all? I'm just glad it isn't instant

People say feral isn't the pvp spec well that's hogwash. Feral is not the arena spec. I have no problems being competitive in pvp battlegrounds

That's true. We all enjoy PvP in different ways. But the way you have it now, think about hunters fearing you from the back on whatever target you're on. Still doesn't fix the fact hunters rock shit like AV. I'll just take the time out from my 350000 damage to laugh at druids as I fear them from 30 yards away just for enjoyment. :p

so its 30yd 1.5sec now? thats still a huge usability boost even if its not instant, the way it was a druid could just keep running through you if you started casting and out range it every time

still not enough to make me want to play hunter again though, the class has too many fundamental issues with arena
