Grinding Some Quick Gold With Your Hunter

As I promised, here is a tip on making a serious amount of gold in a short amount of time on WoW!

Tip 1:

Defias Windmill- This is a great place to farm that can be done at almost any level. This spot was revealed on the official forums right after release and to this day it hasn't changed and is still great.

If you head out to the Gold Coast area in Westfall you will find a windmill on a hill overlooking the beach (there is a murloc camp right below it on the beach). Surrounding this windmill are a ton of Defias mobs that you can kill and get a ton of linen and other good humanoid loot. They are only around level 12 so it easy to do.

What makes this area so great is that their respawn rate is almost immediate. Even at level 60 I can come here and farm linen cloth and they have started respawning before the first of them are even dead.

I'm serious when I say it is almost IMPOSSIBLE to kill them all before new ones respawn.

You can take them on one at a time or AOE if you have the ability and farm non-stop.

You can easily make a lot of money off the linen and low level greens that drop here. In fact, like I said above, this spot is so good that I still grind it at 60 when I need cash fast. You will get numerous stacks of linen and a ton lower level green rank items. This will work at even low levels.

Best Hunter Spec For DPS

Hunters are by far one of the most played characters in world of warcraft. Perhaps it's because of their fast leveling ability and high single target damage output. I'm more into the pvp aspect of the game and don't really find hunters useful for that purpose. However, I do have an 80 hunter with all t9 so I think i can offers some insight as to which hunter spec is best for DPS.

The beast mastery hunter spec is obviously your leveling spec. You'll want to use this spec at least until you hit level 60. The spec is to create survivability and a moderate damage output because of your pet. It makes questing very quick because your pet holds aggro keeping you alive and does a moderate amount of damage as well.

Marksmanship is a hunter spec geared more towards PVP and high end raid purposes. It has a vast selection of stuns and silencing affects. It focuses more on sustainable damage rather than burst damage. This build is designed to keep enemies at a distance for a more sustained fight. It's a great spec for one on one with a rogue or casters.

The survival hunter spec is the build that will give a hunter its maximum damage output. It increases the effects of all traps and explosive abilities. The main reason for taking talents in survival is to learn explosive shot at level 60. Explosive shot has one of the highest burst possibilities in the game. Using this whenever it is active is sure to keep a hunter high in the DPS rankings.

If you are looking for a hunter spec that will maximize your DPS for five man dungeons and raids then survival is the way to go.
