Quote:Our most frequent hunter, Teeth, survives most wipes. His costs mostly just come from arrows and mana pots, not that those aren't costly enough by themselves.
I'm guessing he raids with folks who don't think that it's fun, cute, necessary or their outright perogative to drag bosses over to FD'd hunters/vanished rogues?;)
If I avoid a wipe, it's because something else went wrong. Tank died, and the boss is pounding on the melee, giving me time to get away and FD (usually). Being FD'ed and then Graved while Morogrim is wiping folks is always fun. Or seeing a spate of FD resists is always 'nice', too.
The 'cheapest' raid I can ever recall cost me 15g between repairs and arrows. I think it was an MC speedrun we did towards the launch of TBC.
I realize all sorts of folks have all sorts of costs, what I'd like to see is folks stop bitching about how others have "no" costs.
If you are dead set on thinking that hunters are 'free' in raids, consider this. Most of the higher end ones I talk to (BT/Hyjal) tell me they spend 1.5-2g on a stack of arrows (Depending on how rich they are feeling) and go through a full quiver (24 stacks) and then some per raid. I hear it's quite often 'easy' to go through 30 stacks of arrows a raid. And that's JUST the ammo. So yeah, we all have to spend money to raid, and we all do 'cause we love raiding anyhow. Grass/greener, and all that.
I'm not going down the farming path, as some classes/specs clearly have it easier than others. Let's just say I'm very glad that dailies have come along to help a lot in this regard.
