This Thing You Call Aggro.

with a single hunter, and now was painting the whole class with that brush.  [right][snapback]78868[/snapback][/right]

I've had bad experiences with dozens of hunters, and great experiences with good hunters. The good ones dps against main targets, and keep rogue targets distracted, and know when not to attack. Soloing isn't part of that.

I have the benefit of not being in an instance/battle with you 'yelling' at me.

Its clearer when the targets are obvious, and the healer , mage, and warrior are yapping at you to stop too.

Sounds to me like you need to learn a bit more about hunters. When I was 58, I was able to hold my own/kill an even level melee elite.

Hunters can solo a lot, but its not good to solo in instances, and definitely not against most enemies.

I haven't tried it against a 60 elite yet

Actually, it'll be more likely to be 61-62. They can have somewhere in the order of 10-30k hp. You simply won't be able to do damage fast enough. No single class can. Your best bet is stuns/distracts and CC's until it becomes a main target.

I don't tell the warrior how to tank, or the mage how to fight...I'd suggest doing the same with the hunter.

Actually, its common to tell them how to play often. Its called coordinating. For anything important, everyone is told what to do.

Not tell them what to do? That's ludicrous. You simply can't do higher end instances without such coordination.

Your proposal is as if I don't hold back on fear in instances. Fearing everything all the time will get wipes. SS will too.

We started with gentle asking. We lectured. Still no go. That doesn't work when you demand your 'don't tell me how to play _insert class here_' BS when it interferes with the rest of the party. Inexperienced players consistently do this.

Good players know when *not* to use their skills, listening when and when not take action.
