Also lol @ the best 2s class in the game especially coming from a Warrior whos been the #1 seed for all the brackets for the majority of the time since BC came out, even if the change does make that big of an effect(which we don't know for sure if it will or not) it's 1 bracket and has nothing to do with the cost of a hunters equipment.

You're a level 60 commenting on the viability of stat sticks in a level 70 arena. Hunters use the 2hander to melee (welcome to 1500+ raptor strikes), 1handers are for 30 int. And yes, instant cast fear with a 30 yard range is even more game changing in MULTIPLE brackets than the MS effect on aimed shot AND the dispel effect on arcane shot taken together. Imagine if blizzard gave warriors an instant cast single target stun on a different DR than everything else that lasted 6 seconds and had a 30 yard range? Now put that on a 30 second cooldown and you'd have a similar situation as hunters in 2.4.2
Let's also not forget that the hunter-only 1handers are *barely* worse than the normal onehanders, and in fact, are so barely different that this cryfest is hilarious. You actually gain AP over the non-hunter axes, albeit at the loss of crit and ArPen.
Hunters don't need buffs, they're on par with warriors/warlocks and slightly worse than rogues in terms of arena viability. The fact that they are harder to skillcap than these other faceroll classes has nothing to do with the fact that your crying about a statstick at the same point you get an INCREDIBLE pvp buff.
