Although the Hunter class is one of the simplest to pick up and is a very
popular choice when it comes to pure firepower, it has its share of
complexities that not everyone understands. This guide is designed to show you
what the class has to offer, how each ability is used, and how to improve
yourself as a Hunter.

This chapter will help you get started by introducing you to what the Hunter
has to offer, what each selectable race has to contribute to the class, and
what each profession has in store for you.

——————————————————————————-
a. About The Hunter
——————————————————————————-

So what does a Hunter have to offer? Here is what you need to know…

————-
Ranged Damage
————-

The Hunter is basically the Archer or Ranger archetype of a typical role-
playing game. As such, they excel in inflicting ranged physical damage using
bows, crossbows, and guns. They can attack their targets from as far as 41
yards away, which is beyond the reach of most other classes, and can utilize an
arsenal of Shots and Stings that cause a variety of effects.

—-
Pets
—-

What makes the Hunter so different from the traditional Archer/Ranger archetype
is the ability to have an animal companion by your side. It typically serves as
a tank that soaks up damage while you fire away at your target, though with the
proper molding, a pet can become a lethal predator. There are plenty of animals
to choose from, some of which have their own unique spells and abilities, and
many of them come in a variety of skins and colors.

————-
Survivability
————-

As a Hunter, you have a lot of protection against enemy fire. In addition to
attacking from a distance and having a pet for a damage sponge, you can wear
leather armor until level 40. Once you reach that point, you can train the
ability to wear mail. With a full set of pre-raiding armor from the local
endgame dungeons, you can have an average of 30% damage reduction. If all else
fails, the Feign Death ability can save you from a painful death by completely
removing you from combat. No other class has that kind of life-saving
capability.

——-
Utility
——-

As a Hunter, you can do much more than provide firepower for a group. Your
abilities give you a lot of unmatched utility. For example, you can turn your
minimap into a personal radar, thanks to your Tracking abilities. Along with
Eagle Eye, Flare, and Eyes of the Beast, and an Ornate Spyglass, you can
carefully observe and spot enemies from afar. Your Freezing Trap and Wyvern
Sting can also be used to keep most mobs under control when the situation calls
for it. As you can see, a Hunter can do a lot with the tools they have.

——————————————————————————-
b. Choosing Your Race
——————————————————————————-

At the start of the game, you’re given the choice of faction and race. While
faction affects your allegiance and communication with in-game characters, your
choice of race will affect mainly three things: your racial abilities, your
starting stats, and your location. Between the two factions, you have seven
races to choose from.

 For convenience, here is quick Stats Comparison chart for each race.
 Assume that these numbers are for a level 1 Hunter.

  ====================================================================
  | RACE       | STR | AGL | STA | INT | SPR | ARMOR | HEALTH | MANA |

  | Draenei    | 21  | 20  | 20  | 21  | 23  |  42   |   46   | 100  |
  | Orc        | 23  | 20  | 23  | 17  | 24  |  42   |   76   |  82  |
  | Troll      | 21  | 25  | 22  | 16  | 22  |  52   |   66   |  81  |
  | Tauren     | 25  | 18  | 23  | 15  | 23  |  38   |   80   |  80  |
  | Blood Elf  | 17  | 25  | 19  | 24  | 20  |  54   |   45   | 145  |

The Choice Is Yours
——————-

There are lots of factors when it comes to deciding which race you want. Some
players choose their race based upon stats, racial bonuses, and abilities,
while others choose their race based upon their overall aesthetics. Others may
prefer the sleek finesse of the Blood Elves while others prefer the stalwart
composure of the Night Elves. In the end, what really matters is not which race
has what but how you apply your skills and knowledge to the game with whatever
abilities you may have. A character is only as good as its player.

——————————————————————————-
c. Choosing Your Professions
——————————————————————————-

Your profession will be a major helping hand to you in this game and choosing
the right ones will benefit you a lot. Here are your choices:

————————-
Leatherworking + Skinning
————————-

This combination allows you to skin the corpses of slain mobs and use their
leathers to craft leather armor. In the later levels, patterns for mail armor
becomes available. The gear is relatively limited for Hunters due to the fact
that there isn’t much in the way of Agility or Attack Power. In fact, most of
it easily caters to Shamans, though if you specialize in Dragonscale
Leatherworking, there are some very rewarding late-game patterns at your
disposal.

As a leatherworker, you may also craft a variety of armor kits, which can be
patched onto various parts of your armor. You also have the ability to craft
some ammo pouches and quivers early in the game, though you will find much
betters ones later on.

And on a side note, Comfortable Insoles do absolutely nothing.

——————–
Engineering + Mining
——————–

Engineering allows you to create a whole arsenal of gadgets and gizmos for you
to use at your disposal. You have target dummies, mechanical animals, explosive
sheep, shrink rays, teleporters, seaforium charges, goggles, and much more.
Some come in the form of one-time-use items while others are permanent
trinkets. As a Hunter, you can benefit greatly from being an engineer, thanks
to your ability to craft guns and bullets. While most of the uncommon guns are
easily replaced, the bullets that you can craft are significantly better than
the ones that are normally sold wow gold in stores.

The only downside to Engineering is that many of the best patterns require a
wide variety of materials and reagents that Mining alone cannot provide, though
the end results are undeniably beneficial.

Alchemy + Herbalism
——————-

With this combination, you can gather herbs and turn them into potions, and
this goes well beyond Health and Mana Potions. As an alchemist, you can create
potions that boost your stats, absorb magic damage, underwater breathing, make
you invisible, and much more. As you progress in skill, you can eventually
transmute metals, essences, primals, and gems into other materials of the same
type, though transmutes tend to have long cooldown timers.

————–
Enchanting + ?
————–

As an enchanter, you can disenchant items into powders, shards, and essences,
and use them to permanently apply buffs to your weapons and armor. It’s a very
rewarding profession but it’s also a costly one. Because the only source of
enchanting materials are weapons and armor, you must constantly find gear to
disenchant. Eventually, you can quickly run through low-level dungeons on your
own and walk away with bags full of items, but as you progress, you need
higher-level items, and those aren’t as easy to come by. You can try the local
(wow gold)Auction House for items but that can cost a pretty penny.

Since enchanting materials come from disenchanted items, you don’t need a
gathering profession to go with it, but some players recommend tailoring. Most
patterns only need cloth, which drop off of humanoid mobs, and you can
disenchant whatever armor you make. As an added bonus, being a tailor gives you
the opportunity to craft your own bags.

———————-
Jewelcrafting + Mining
———————-

Jewelcrafting allows you to create a variety of rings and neckpieces with the
minerals and gems found through mining, as well as statuettes that heal you.
Although gems can be rare, the Prospecting ability that comes with the
profession allows you to sift through ore to find the gems you need. At a
certain point, you will start finding patterns for figurines, which are
trinkets that come with different abilities. Once you reach Outland, you will
find gems that can be cut for use in sockets.

The speed at which your skill grows will depend on how lucky you are when it
comes to finding the right materials. Many mid-game patterns require rare gems
such as Jade and Lesser Moonstones, which are not easy to come by, and
depending on the economy on your server, the Auction House can be an expensive
source for those gems.

———————-
Blacksmithing + Mining
———————-

Blacksmithing caters mostly to Warriors and Paladins, since the profession has
you crafting mail and plate armor and melee weapons. However, there are a few
late-game patterns that may be useful to you as a Hunter. Armorsmithing
features a series of excellent mail armor for your chest such as the
Stormforged Hauberk. A few of the melee weapons also have stats that are
suitable for you. The problem with this route is that getting the materials can
be time-consuming, and most of the gear goes to waste on the way to 375. The
early mail armor is too weak to be worn at level 40, plate armor is worthless
to you, and the majority of the weapons are not well suited for Hunters.

———————
Secondary Professions
———————

First Aid
With First Aid, you can take plain cloth and turn it into bandages, which
recover a large amount of your health in just a few seconds. This is an
extremely important profession due to the fact that bandages can be used in
combat. There will be times when the healer in your group is either heavily
focused on other party members, or simply cannot reach you. When you find
yourself in such a situation, bandaging is the next best thing.

First Aid also allows you to make antitoxins, which remove poison effects, but
their uses are so situational that you can easily do without them.

Cooking
With Cooking, you can take the meats that you find from slain animals, and turn
them into edible goods. The big kicker to this is the buffs that certain foods
give, which show up as “Well Fed” on your list of buffs. The most basic form of
that buff gives you a boost to Stamina and Spirit, but certain foods will boost
your other stats as well. For example, the Warped Flesh from Warpstalkers can
be cooked into Warp Burgers, which give you 20 Agility and Spirit for 30
minutes. Although it’s tempting to feed your pet some of the raw meats that
drop, save them and work on this profession. Your pet can live off of vendor
foods.

Fishing
Fishing will yield raw fish, which can be cooked or used as reagents for
Alchemy recipes. Occasionally, you’ll find something funky, like a fish that
can be held in your off-hand. If you find little whirlpools or floating
wreckage, you can fish those areas to get some loot. It’s also something to do
while you’re waiting for a friend or a boat. The only problem with Fishing is
that it’s incredibly boring and it takes a lot of time to raise your skill.
Still, if you’re an alchemist, this is a must-have profession, and if you’re
not, it’s something to do when you have little else to do.

Choosing a car stereo can be a complicated and difficult task, especially for individuals with little knowledge on the subject. This process requires extensive research in order to determine you are receiving the best deal possible. Before going to a car stereo dealer, you may want to review and understand all the components of a car stereo. This way, you can personally choose which components you would like for your car. The following is a list of the basic components of a car stereo:

1. Decks - Car stereos cannot function without a deck. A deck constitutes any piece of equipment ranging from cassette decks and CD players to MP3s and mini discs. The deck is considered the glue that holds the car stereo together. The deck controls the overall output of the sound and allows you to control the music being played. All car stereo decks have a minimum 4-channel output for your speakers. If you want more power than what your speakers alone can hold, you may want to consider purchasing an amplifier.

2. Amplifiers – Amplifiers provide the power needed to blast the music in your car. The more powerful your amplifier is, the louder the sound system is going to be. An amplifier can have anywhere from 1 to 7 channels. The number of channels in your amplifier is the number of speakers you can hookup in a series circuit.

3. Speakers – Speakers are where the sound from the stereo is emitted. Different types of speakers are designed to produce different frequencies. Higher frequencies provide the capacity for more sound and produce a higher level sound as well. The efficiency of the speakers is what will determine how far the sound will travel. If you want the sound to travel far, you will need speakers with a higher frequency.

4. Subwoofers – Every high-tech car stereo system should have a subwoofer. Subwoofers complete the sound by providing high efficiency of low frequencies, through the bass. In other words, the subwoofer is the piece of equipment which makes the car vibrate. A subwoofer needs to be enclosed in either a box or possibly the trunk of your vehicle. Keep this is mind when budgeting the cost of your stereo system.

Now that you know the basics of how everything operates, you can ask informed questions as to which components you should have in your car.

We all know the game World of Warcraft Gold. The biggest mmorpg in the world with a subscriber base of over 9 million players. From it’s release, over 2 and a half years now many players have complained about other players cheating by buy WoW gold. Blizzard has agreed to take on the role to stop those who are selling the gold. As from what I can see, Blizzard has yet done much to stop and the gold selling has become an even bigger business than over. It comes to my attention that it seems as if there are now a larger portion of players who are looking to buy WOW gold than ever.

Could it be possible that Blizzard is somewhat behind the scenes of gold selling? Whether they are or not but players are accepting the ideal of buying and selling cheap WoW gold. World of Warcraft fans now even sell the gold personally themselves to make extra cash to pay for the subscription fee they pay Blizzard every month.

Blizzard also states that the account is theirs and you cannot sell your virtual account. I question myself, didn’t we buy the game and account? Blizzard may own the right to your character and etc but you still paid for the game, the key and you worked on the account yourself. You’re able to sell any of your other games that you don’t want to play anymore so why can’t you sell your account with the cd as well?

Sonly Online Entertaint has 2 of the most popular games which includes EverQuest and Star Wars Galaxies. SOE supports the idea of players selling their currencies and etc by providing an auction house in which they charge a small fee for players to auction their virtual items to another player. If blizzard were to pick up on this they would make quite alot of extra cash (not that they really need it).

The only work I’ve seen Blizzard doing is banning accounts of the gold sellers accounts. As many accounts as they ban it doesn’t seem to stop them. As long as there is a desire from a large number of players who wishes to buy, there will always be a seller who is willing to provide. Why not let the players decide what they want? Isn’t the game supposed to cater the players happiness?

Blizzard has threaten many sellers to stop selling with lawsuits but never have one site been shut down yet. I have spoken with several sellers that they’ve received a letter but nothing after. What good is a threat without the action to back up your words. At this point I believe Blizzard may be giving in to what players want and have let the players build the market.

Picture this: you’ve launched your website for a couple of months now and your traffic has never gone over 100 visits a day, but today, after submitting a link to 5 websites, your server just crashed because it can’t handle the traffic.

How would that happen? It almost surely isn’t search engine optimization, considering that these techniques take from 1 week to 3 or 4 months for their effects to show.

The answer: Social Bookmarking. Remember these two words, they are going to save your website! Now lets take a look at the top 5 sites that can bring you a ton of traffic when you need it - right now.

1. Digg.com - this is the Big Daddy of social bookmarking. Although not the first of its kind, it surely is the biggest one out there. Getting on the front page will submit your site to the so called “digg effect”, which can bring down even dedicated servers.

2. del.icio.us - it may not bring as many visitors as Digg, but it’s the second best out there and it still gets the respect of every webmaster blessed with a front page posting.

3. Slashdot.org - this one can bring visitors on par with Digg, but only to tech related articles and sites.

4. StumbleUpon.com - unlike the other sites in this list, StumbleUpon doesn’t rely on its website for the browsing but on browser plugins that send stumblers to sites matched to their preferences.

5. Reddit.com - although it’s the last on our list, you should still pay attention to it. Reddit has a more relaxed policy on what content appears on its site and with the free tagging folksonomy your content will be categorized exactly how you want it.

Now that you have the list, you’ll probably want to know how you can get that craved front page listing. The answer: good quality content.

I know everybody says that, but it’s actually true, and here is one idea on how to make great content: think of one problem that has been annoying you for some time and solve it. It doesn’t have to be something life changing; no matter how small your problem is you can be sure hundreds or even thousands of other people are irked by the same thing.

Another to get a lot of eyeballs is to attack a well known organization or person. Most times this isn’t the kind of attention you would want for your website, but if you think you can weather the bad criticism then this can make your site a traffic hotspot.

With all this potential, sometimes you may ask yourself if gaming the system could be an option. My advice is to play fair and have your links rank high because they’re good - being labeled a spammer and a cheater on the Internet is one of the worst things that can happen to your reputation.

Ok, so you know where to get your content seen, how to create that content and what not to do. Now go do it and enjoy the traffic!

Article marketing is not only a fantastic means of ’spreading the word’ about your company, or the services you provide, but also one of the best methods of building links back to your website. By building links to your site, you benefit from the two-fold implications of increased website coverage, and the obvious SEO benefits from increasing your back-links. Through submitting articles which are original and good quality across a number of various sources online, you effectively increase the scope of your linking coverage, which ultimately leads to an improved ranking and greater exposure for your website, and for your brand.

Articles increase back-links primarily through links to your website in the body text of the article, and links from the resource box attached to the foot of the article. By submitting these articles to article directories, you are effectively publishing links to your website, which would otherwise be hard to find. Links, in terms of SEO, are invaluable, as the cornerstone of off-site strategy. By creating a network of structured links from relevant sites under appropriate search terms, you are inevitably going to reap the benefits of improved search engine rankings. On top of that, many article directories, by way of their masses of content and links to the directory boast impressive PageRanks, which can subsequently benefit back-links through your articles, making it a more valuable process overall.

In addition to receiving links from article directories, it is also possible to have your articles picked up and published elsewhere by other webmasters. This means that you’ll have further coverage through your articles, positioning your links in front of more browsers, which can only be a good thing.

If you’re interested in adopting a link-building strategy through article submission and article marketing, the first steps you should consider are to draft your articles. A good starting point is to come up with one article, and rewrite it several times. This effectively increases the number of articles you end up with, which can make your subsequent links more valuable. After you have your articles written, it’s time to think about the appropriate keyword strategy you wish to adopt, and the directories you wish to use. Of course, it is possible to obtain profession help with the process to ensure effectiveness if you are at unsure, or alternatively there are a number of articles available online which can offer you some further guidance on article marketing.

Link building through articles is one of the most prominent SEO strategies used today, and is a great way of reaping direct rewards from time invested. It is a primary method for many SEO specialists, and is certainly a method than can be attempted by the less experienced marketers, or those with access to limited resources. Building links through article marketing is favoured for many reasons, including the fast and cost effective results that can be realised. Additionally, it really can vastly improve the image of any online venture, which can make an incalculable difference to customer perception and goodwill.

Why Should Documents be Stored and Retained?

Storage and retention of documents is a major document management issue. Documents need to be stored to meet different needs:
• For managing the business successfully: You need to analyze results and trends for making informed business decisions. For example, you have to compare current period sales with those of previous periods, as also against your own budget estimates, to find out how you are doing. You would then need to analyze the variances and identify underlying factors. Without documents and records, you would be unable to carry out these essential management tasks.
• For running your business: Product and materials specifications, operations manuals, production and maintenance schedules and quality assurance manuals are examples of key documents that are needed to keep your operations going and your quality at acceptable levels.
• For enforcing your legal rights: Business is a system of contracts. Contracts are evidenced by documents. If you ever have to take legal action to recover your dues, for example, you would need to produce supporting evidence in the form of documents. You would also need documents to defend against claims made by others on you.
• Regulatory requirements: Business laws require that you maintain certain records and retain these for specified periods. For example, you have to keep records of employee pay computations, disciplinary actions, health and safety incidents and so on. Then there are the tax laws that require you to prove your taxable revenues and income by documentary evidence.

Maintaining documents and records relating to several years becomes an unavoidable necessity in such a context.

We could say that it is this requirement that gives rise to the whole issue of document management and creates the need for efficient document management systems.

Document Storage Systems

You need rather elaborate systems for storing and retaining documents in a satisfactory manner.

Paper documents are typically stored in folders, which are kept in filing cabinets. Large drawings and other documents need commensurately large storage media, like spacious table drawers. Easily damaged documents like photographs need special protective storage.

You also have to arrange for protecting all these documents against fire, floods and other natural disasters. The systems should also ensure continued readability of the documents. If humidity or other factors make the documents undecipherable, it is equivalent to losing them.

You need space to accommodate all these, money to acquire the equipment, and staff to man the whole mess. Cost is thus a major issue for storing and maintaining large volumes of documents that are typical of even small businesses.

Document Retention Policies

On the one hand, there are the requirements mentioned at the beginning that makes retention of documents for several years an unavoidable necessity. On the other hand are the associated costs. It is these opposing pulls that necessitate carefully worked out retention policies.

The retention policies basically specify for how long documents of each type should be retained. For this, you have to identify the different kinds of documents that are created in your business. Then you examine the retention requirements for each category looking at the management, legal and other aspects involved.

This exercise is quite likely to reveal that a large portion of the documents could be destroyed without any adverse impact. You then decide how to remove these documents and what procedures should be followed. These decisions constitute your document retention policy.

Carefully developed policies could result in huge cost savings.

The Impact of Computers

Computers have made a huge impact on document storage practices and costs.

You could now keep records in a digital format. Computer records require little space. For example, 512 million characters could be stored in a flash disk about the size of your thumb. Even paper documents could be scanned and the images stored on digital media.

You could now remove the bulky paper and other documents to inexpensive locations.

Problems of Computer-based Document Storage

The observation that new solutions bring up new problems has probably never been so well illustrated as in the case of computer-based document storage. And the problems took many forms. Data could get corrupted and become unreadable. Or could be lost entirely if the computer system crashes. Virus attacks could erase voluminous data that had been created painstakingly over years.

New Elements of Document Management Systems

While the problems of data loss were more serious with computer-based storage, the advantages were too overwhelming to abandon it. This factor led to the arrival of foolproof backup devices, data recovery software and services and practices like data mirroring. These and more modern solutions have become standard in today’s document management systems.

With the arrival of the Internet, it has now become possible to store data at remote servers and yet be able to access them instantly. These servers could even belong to independent service providers who charge you a fee for providing the storage services. Being specialists, they could take precautions against data loss much more reliably than you. And the cost could be far lower compared to maintaining the data in your own equipment.

This could be a worthwhile document management solution, particularly where the data involved is not very sensitive. In fact, the current trend of business process outsourcing also moves much of the documentation outside the originating organizations.

Conclusion

Carefully developed document retention policies and use of computers and the Internet for document storage could make this element of your document management system a far more efficient and yet far less expensive exercise.

Next comes the issue of controlling access to your business documents. We will look at this in a separate article.

Bingo is another game that depends on luck to win and takes no skill except listening to the numbers as they are called. A player picks preprinted cards and pays a set fee for each card. The rest of the game is all about what numbers are called out by the house caller. In the US the total numbers that could be called come from a pool of 75 numbers. In the UK they come from a pool of 90 numbers.

The game is simple in that the player tries to get 5 numbers in a row and if this happens then they win. In the states, the card is a square with five rows up and down and five side to side. In the UK the rows are three across. The winner is still the cardholder with five numbers in a row. This game is offered online by some sites, but not by all. It s also played in live casinos, but more often in halls and meeting places within cities. In England it is played in almost every seaside town. In some cases the promoters tie the games together between sites in order have bigger prizes on these games.

This game while very popular in many countries is not a game that has ever had much of a following in live casinos or even in online casinos. There are sites on the Internet that offer bingo, but they are not the big online casinos. They are not like the ones that offer all forms of gambling and attract large numbers of players to the site.

There are specials that can be played such as special numbers or the playing until someone has the numbers in four corners covered. Another variation is to cover two rows of the card. This makes for longer games and may have an extra fee or a better prize to the winner. Another variation is the coverall numbers game. In this game, the player must cover all numbers on the card. This game will come with a larger prize and will take longer to play. There are also local variations that can be played, but these games are played at the local establishment and may not be common to other bingo parlors. Check the rules at any place you play to see if they offer a game that you are not familiar with.
A new variation can be thought up by any promoter and can be know only to that area of players.

Gambling laws in different countries control where and what can be offered to winners. The churches and other groups have done a very good job of making these rules as friendly as possible for the game. On the Internet the games can be structured any way the casino wants, as there are no rules to abide by that are mandatory.

Bingo is a good way for charities to raise money and have a social event at the same time. Churches have been using this game for this purpose for a long time.

Some casinos use this game to bring in customers they would no ordinarily get through the door. The way they do this is to have a bingo tournament. This will draw patrons online and to live casinos that would not be there except for the tournament. If the prize money is high enough, this can draw a large number of players. But remember casinos are using this game as an attraction and not as one of their more common specials. They are trying to attract a crowd.

Three-card poker is made up of two games being played at the same time. The player can bet on both games or one or the other. Each game consists of using three cards to determine the winner. The hand values are a skinny version of poker. There is no raising or discarding of cards like there can be in poker.

The player makes their bets before the hand is dealt and the winners are then decided by the luck of the deal. There is little skill involved other than knowing how to run a betting progression or when to play a hunch. The payouts from a winning hand are set and it is this feature that allows for progression betting.

The player makes an ante bet and a pairplus bet. If the hand dealt is better than a queen six and four then the player should bet the raise. The payout for different values of hands will be paid automatically if the player is dealt one of the value hands. If the player wins the hand against the dealer they win the ante bet and the raise. If they get a pair or better they win the pairplus bet. Each live or online casino has their own payout bonuses for pairplus bets.

As you can see there is not much skill needed to play this game. It depends on luck and money management to win. If you want to learn this game for free go to the Internet and find sites that will let you play practice games. You can try different strategies and progressive betting patterns without risking any money.
Playing the game for real or for practice is the only way to really learn to play.

Find a betting level that you are comfortable with and do not go away from it whether you are winning or losing. Winning sessions can turn on a dime and over confidence can be very costly. Wager in progressives steps and consider backing down if you have had a very good run of luck. Table games are fickle and can turn without warning.
