PvP: Hunter v Rogue

[KiloVictor]

I can see a gear based solution: potion of swiftness and two talent-based solutions: Improved Wing Clip (20% chance to Immobilise) and Scatter Shot (the description of which implies it can be used point blank). Can other Hunters comment on how they deal with being surprised by a rogue? Is there anyone who can reliably win?

Just to confirm, Scatter Shot is useable at zero range. And it sucks when you get hit with it PvP. :(

There's a post on the WoW Hunter forums about how a 31 Beast Mastery build with a bunch of points in Survival (?) for improved Wing Clip makes a great anti-rogue melee hunter build. Sorry I can't find it right now, but you might want to look for it. The poster was claiming that the health return from the top BM skills meant that outlasting a rogue was much easier, and the improved pet damage meant that the rogue (or other PCs) couldn't just ignore the pet anymore. Oh, and a high attack speed on the pet was a must, so I believe they were going with cats.

Disclaimer: I know next to nothing about hunters. I play with a pretty good one, and I was reading the boards prior to rolling one, but I've certainly never tried these tricks myself, so I have no idea how well it works.
