Choosing a hunter spec

Well Gnometosser is 44 and speccing survival so far. Sure BM is said to be better for leveling but I wanted to try survival for fun (to annoy AF in world pvp with wyvern sting and long traps actually) and it has been great. Maybe a survival hunter is somewhat gimped for leveling but compared to my prot pally, leveling my survival hunter has been crazy easy.

I may respec to BM at 50 and abuse beast within for a while, but end game I suspect I’ll go marks or survival.

So I found this thread extremely interesting.

I love survival, but my big concern is that pvp gear has relatively little agility. And everyone says you need 600+ agility for survival. But that’s for expose weakness in a raid setting – what about pvp?

Well on the thread I link to they talk about survival in pvp with a big question about whether to take readiness or scatter shot. One guy skipped marks altogether and mentioned 23/0/38 – pretty interesting…

At level 44 I still have time to think. And who knows which friends I’ll be pvping with – I prefer bgs but will arena for better gear. I have 2 friends active in arean 2v2 – lock / shammy combo. Maybe I would make a 3v3 team with them. Or I have another friend with a lock – a lock and hunter 2v2 would be interesting – with locks overpowered fear and my traps and wyvern sting (+ readiness?) we would have tons of cc…
