The el oh el Hunter.

Hunters have been mocked as being one of the "easiest" classes to play in WoW by many people. So much so, that they gained a nickname to demonstrate this lack of skill: Huntard. What these people don't realize, is all of the thought processing that a good hunter has to go through in order to maximize DPS.
The naturally built in damage that a hunter gets is Autoshot. Autoshot takes .5 seconds to fire, but has a cooldown based on weapon speed. Hunter's have several shots in their spell book, that are used regularly, that do damage besides the naturally built in Autoshot. These include Aimed Shot, Arcane Shot, Multishot, and Steady Shot. While Aimed Shot does the most damage of the three, it has the longest cast time with 3 seconds as well as restarting the autoshot timer. This means that its really only good for an opening shot with Misdirection, or a fight where you REALLY need the Mortal Strike debuff that it brings to the table. Arcane Shot is an instant shot that deals decent damage, and Multishot is essentially an instant cast as well, that does damage to three targets and is about on par in damage with Arcane shot. Steady Shot is a 1.5 second cast shot that does decent damage, but it is your most mana/damage efficient shot. The biggest problem with Steady Shot, is that while casting that 1.5 second shot, your autoshot cannot fire, and thus, cannot start its cooldown time. You will want to use this shot as often as you reasonably can.
How to grind rep with the Derchlon faction:

Alright so its late, its been an interesting day for me, and I'm not entirely coherent right now. That means this is the perfect time to give all of you a good way to grind your way to Exalted status with Derchlon. This is just an on the fly list of things I like, and conversation topics that I relish.
1. Baseball. I enjoy people who can discuss the inner strategy of a 3-1 ground ball to shortstop, and why the hitter got fooled by the high heat again when it was the last two pitches thrown. Common phrases from these people include "I just said that! These announcers should give me their job," and "I knew they should have benched that guy earlier" Also, trash talking Bill Bavasi with an intelligent reason is worth bonus rep.
2. Misa Campo. She happens to be one of the most attractive women I've ever seen. Way back before I got involved in WoW, I was labeled as "The guy who really likes Misa Campo" on a message board I was on. I pretty much pushed her image on the site before she was as known as she is now, and now she's decently popular. Chances are if you've heard of her before, thank me for it. She's best known for her picture in the green shirt with the sprite logo. Have fun on Google Images ;).
3. Hypothetical situations. These can't just be simple "what if we replaced a mage with a boomkin?" kind of questions, they need to have more meaning, and likewise, consequences. A good example is as follows: Two girls love you very much, but you only love one of those girls in return. However, if you choose to be with the one you love, the other is banished and tortured for eternity, but if you pick the one you don't love, you can never see the one you DID love ever again. So, which do you choose?
4. Quoting from movies in common conversations. This is self explanatory. If its from a movie, and its in the conversation, done deal.

This is one of those few times that a comedy skit made me laugh until I had a headache.
