Ravager, Cat , Windserpent (Offensive).
Boar (Good if you are surv/mm since it generate huge initial threat)

Heh i still have that unique purple blue windserpent (Soulflayer) that i solo tame it in ZG.
Best looking pet ever.

Screw scorpids.
It got nerf like hell.

The poison damage is even worse than than Claw and its on 4s cooldown.
Definitely not worth it.

It ticks at 20 dmg per application at lvl 70 when i have 2.2k AP surv spec. (Used to be 70-80dmg per application)
Dunno how it goes for BM. Im not expecting much.

BTW, do you mean Dragonhawk?
Dont use them either. Their firebreath is a mini aoe and dot. Breaks CC etc. Besides that, it has a long cooldown. 10s

Ideally, if you are going BM spec, you want a pet with high focus dump skills like Claw, Gore, Lightning Breath which has no cooldown.

You have been hearing old news. All scorpid poison dmg have been normalized/nerfed in Patch 2.2. You wont see 700 dmg ticks anymore
The maximum tick is 150+ from a BM hunter. Thats what is reported in Nihilum forums.


The thing is if you are the cookie cutter BM spec, (which i assume 90% of all hunters are right now) you will have Beastial Discipline and Go For The Throat.
Your pet will be generating hell lot of focus to dump. If your pet has not enough focus dump skills, it will be a waste of DPS.
Just go to ElitistJerks forum and download their hunter DPS spreadsheet.


Just leave it auto. You dont need to click trinket and click skill. Only Scorpid Poison requires "Pop trinket + Start stacking poison". Well, screw scorpids anyways.
Keep in mind that your AP gain from trinkets will take around 2s before it has +AP/dmg effect registered to your pet stats
