I'm leveling up my warrior now, was going to hit 60 on my hunter, but he can slide into 60 easy from farming shit now. Most people in my guild are a good 20 levels behind anyway, so I'll lap them and save the day to tank for ZF and Mara when they there.
Fuck hunters, at least until there some kind of fix. I'm not knowledgeable enough about the class to figure out exactly what is going on, not so much the FD/Trap issues, but pet threat is unreliable. I know for a fact that there is a major issue with pets being able to tag/aggro moving npc's for me, I even have the points in pet move speed, pet still runs along with mobs like they best friends. If pet is on defensive, it will sit where the mob died for a few seconds, and usually that's enough time for another to aggro him. Have to run off mobs because you overwhelmed? Shit will chase your pet halfway across the zone like EQ, no matter how many times I FD. Rare occasions the threat from pet will dump onto me after a FD. I recall my vanilla hunter leveling experience being easier than a combat rogue, I'm just annoyed and irritated all the time, I don't remember most of this being an issue at all.
Warrior will be my main class, just went hunter first for a decent farmer, and warriors are torture starting fresh, easier for me to level another class to support it first. At least with warrior shit is black and white, kill or be killed, I'm finding it much more relaxing, outside tanking instances with a bunch of random twerps. I'm used to that shit from tanking most of WotLK.
