How to beat me in PvP

[Lissa]

Yes, I forgot hunters.  Probably because I own them so much.

9) Hunters
  Your pet is a critical element to this: a fast-attack pet obviously helps to stutter my attacks.  Without Focused Casting, I need to have Shield on me to get off a clean spell cast.  The only other way is to fear you.
  How to beat me: stay AWAY FROM ME.  Remember that my fear will send both you and your pet flying, giving me all the time I need to waste your mana away and go into turtle mode, self-healing while my SW:P and occasional Mind Blast whittle you down.  When you lack mana, a good bunch of your DPS and special moves disappears, and you become much easier to handle.  Burn as much as my mana as you can, since that will prevent me from performing the aforementioned turtling.  I'll be dispelling any magic effects you put on me, so the key here is to keep your distance as long as possible.

If you're a hunter, and you're thinking "well, I have mad DPS and can burn down his mana," remember that I have a LOT of mana, can dispel a lot of junk you throw at me, and can self-heal extremely well.  Rogues have mad DPS too and it's only the stuns/mana burning that cause me issues.  I don't know, I never seem to have too much trouble 1 on 1 with hunters.  In group PvP, hunters cause me no end of grief, of course, sic'ing their pets on me from long range, draining all my mana off, and generally sniping me while my teammates are busy with others (and I'm busy with them too, keeping them alive).  Jerks!  :)

The reason you win in 1v1 is because most hunters think, "ooo, I should use Aimed Shot for the mad crits". When it comes to 1v1 fighting as a hunter, Arcane Shot and Multi-Shot are the two damage abilities to use along with Concusive shot to keep the Priest for closing. If you saw my bar I have setup for PvP, you'd see how few of my abilities I use there compared to what I use in PvE.

In PvP, standing in place for a hunter = dead.
