The hunter's Ranged Weapon Specialization talent

[Ruvanal]

I guess this seems to be in line with a lot of people's impressions that the hunter talents were rushed.

The hunter class over all was 'rushed'; in spite of the great delay before they made available for testing. The first versions of the hunter that the beta testers had access to were so broken that most could not play the class past level 20 due to all the things that were not working in a reasonable fashion. I still remember the pet aggro bug that had me training a mob from near the Great Lift up to Crossroads before I took the time to break the chase off. Most players did not know how to break this so would end up being chased till they were dead from the mob nipping at them.

The first version of the hunter that I would consider moderatly as well balanced was the one rolled out to start the open beta test. This would put that version roughly on par with most classes as they were at the start of phase 3 beta (approximately 8 months before?). So until they sit down and really address some of the things that were intended for Hunters, I do not think we can hope to see a decent balance on things like the Talent trees.
