BC Hunter Talents Released

[Lissa]

I'm not quite sure what you mean by this. While it may be true, it's also been said that actual amount of +crit% that crit rating gives you goes down as your level goes up. So it does scale, but in a way counter to your apparent argument, unless you're saying that hunters still gain enough agility per level up to effectively increase their crit% despite the scale.

No, what I mean is that both the talent based crits and the crit base off of Agi will continue to give the same effective critical rating. 8% crit from Talents will stay 8% crit be it level 60 or level 70 otherwise it totally breaks those talents and makes them waisted points in effect. Likewise, as you scale upward in level you Agi will scale upward as well. You should end up with a little more crit through base Agi than you would have at lower levels with equivalent levels of gear (lv 60 gear on a level 60 will be less effective crit than a lv 70 in level 70 gear). Overall, not counting degredation of crit rating due to gear level vs. Mob level, ie, being in lower level gear compared to your level and mob level, you should have a significant increase in critical rating at lv 70 vs. lv 60.

And then you have to factor in the target's resilience rating, and any points they have in the talents that are popping up that reduce your chance to be critically hit. And all the additional +stamina on items. The sky isn't falling in just yet.

If present mobs are any indication of the kinds of resists and the like you would see, most mobs and bosses would have little to no resilience unless Blizzard wants to make a specific crit resistant. Resilience will be more for PvP than PvE in the end. The big effect of crit, and thus Expose Weakness, will be in the PvE arena and not so much in PvP (PvE will likely have little in the way of resilience while PvP will have a great deal of resilience).
