 | Frost Mage/Discipline Priest | VS. |   | Healer/Hunter |
Difficulty - 4/5
Frequency of Encounter - 3.5
This combo is not as difficult as many people who run Mage/Priest make it out to be. The hunter is our kill target for about 95% of games. (Only at very obvious situations should burst be applied to the paladin for either bubble or death opportunities). Chains of CC are put into the paladin while massive amounts of damage are dealt to the hunter. We do not play a pet game. After we are oom and evocation is down we normally begin to give up. The hunter needs to be burst down asap. Paladin healers are generally a lot harder for us than Shaman healers for this combo.

| I dont think I gave enough details for this comp. I will give a few additional tips for all the healers. Starting with Paladin. Do not chase retards around a pillar - you will lose (this goes for all hunter/healer teams). Either run away or land a fear into the open. With paladins we often start on hunter to attempt to blow CD's and maybe even get a kill. Once it is obvious that the hunter is not dropping we will quickly swap to pet, and often get a kill on it. Depending on situation we may reset or continue on hunter. Dont bother burning the pally, its pretty useless imo. about 80% of our games we will get a pet kill and then work on hunter. Shamans - Hmm. Pet kills are probably needed, especially with the shocks/grounding to stop burst on hunter. Once hunter pet is down same rules apply. possibly resetting, dont burn shaman. stop hunters from rezzing his pet Priest - very hard...I wouldn't reccomend killing pet nor burning the priest. Something needs to die fast. If they are pillaring like tools it is very difficult to say what to do. We often HATE resetting against this team because it often means a loss so generally we will try to fear them in to the open. But this is very hard. we often try to burst hunter with deternce / priest trinket down. Druid... for nigunit =P. Umm lol. very very very hard?. We havent vs'd this but what I would reccomend is work on a pet kill. Only viable via hard switches while it isn't hotted. I would probably recommend burning the druid, depending on map/situations/positioning of course. But once again Hunter would be your kill target. Possibly gib on druid at the start but very rare. | |

| I've found that as paladin hunter this game can be made easier by draining the mage instead of the priest. The priest's mana will deplete fast enough healing the mage and the mage will have a hard time DPS'ing or CC'ing between scatter shots, TNT procs, feign death on frostbolts or similar. I normally don't bother with CC on the priest except wyvern when my paladin for some reason got feared and is getting burned. When we lose games to this setup (happened once) it was because of mass amounts of stun procs and VERY offensive play from the priest. And fail from our side :\ | |

| its great to say "kill pet" but i seem to have a lot of difficulty doing that when theres a hunter pounding my ass, so what to do? try to LoS him and draw his pet behind a pillar or something? good guide tho just a few questions :) | |

| thanks, good guide. Normally me and my priest always kill the pet while the hunter is under control. It has always worked for us so far. | |
