 | Rogue/Warlock | VS. |   | Druid/Hunter |
The Hunter's spec determines which strategy to use.
If hes Beast Mastery, try to find the Druid and do the same as in Druid/Warrior. If you cant find the Druid, get on the Hunter and DPS until the Druid comes out, then Shadowstep to the Druid and kill him. Try to Blind/Fear the Hunter after Beast Within is over.
If the hunter is Marksmanship, you can get on him and CC the Druid or use the same strategy as when the Hunter is BM. This fight relies 100% on how good the Druid is at kiting you. Its a perfect example of why mutilate is not a viable spec for this combo.

| You cannot kill a druid in this combo, it's absolutely pointless in my opinion. The druid has way too much support from his hunter w/ traps, scatter shot, wing clip spam, and w/e else those hunters use. :P Killing the hunter while setting up a picure perfect cc rotation is only way to win. You'll just be sitting behind your monitor w/ knives poking at your wrists if you try to kill the druid. You shouldn't see a BM hunter w/ this combo since it's not meant for it's burst dps. If you do however see a BM hunter, you should automatically think the druid is boomkin. In most cases, your hunter will be 11/41/9 though because the team is meant for it's drain and steady dps. Also meant to aggravate the heck out of its oponents to the point of no return :P. | |

| also send the pet on the druid to aviod prolong his casting time as much as possible. His snares only can CC one thing at a time... and silence the druid when the rogue has done his cheap/kidney rotation. After the cheap and kidney shot of the hunter to force the druid out with a long stun lock, fear the hunter in first to make him force to pop his trinket. Even if the warlock chain fears as long as the hunter is CCd long enough this should help you take down the druid. The druid is the main key because it's not the mana drain that will be killing this set-up. It's the consistent dps when the hunter is alone and the druid has time to CC/heal. We have to be up on the CC/ double dps BEFORE they even get started. Warlock: curses of tongues, the pet, and the rogue on the druid should slow him down enough to waste his trinket in the first 30 seconds. Be more aggressive on the hunter because the rogue has a better chance of being aggressive on the druid. Anytime your rogue saps make sure to cast fear before the sap wears off, this is a MUST to maintain CC and force them to use there trinket. 15 of double dps is too much for any team to allow. That and it sets up your fear to a faster rotation when they are on the offensive. Your rogue can not help you out as much as you think, because he HAS to apply pressure to kill the druid in time. Rogue: sapping the druid/hunter has to happen, or you already lose the chance to maintain a good CC. if you get caught up on the flare start attacking the hunter until he has some CC on you then blind... co-ordinate with the warlock to chain fear to get maximum CC while you burn the druid down. Ghostly strike/Evasion and CoS when druid is low to avoid some CC while you throw in the finishing attacks before the warlock Fears and dots... you have the keep the pressure on close, they have long range so you have to use stuns to your advantage. | |

| Seriously this strat is bad. I play with a hunter and 99% of the time they just fear the hunter and CS > KS > Death Coil > Fear > I am dead. BM hunters... your joking right. BM + resto druid has to be the dumbest combo ever. | |

| Totally pointless to try to kill the Druid against a decent comp. Warlock start out soloing the Hunter with Sac Shield up, when the Hunter gets to about 70% or the Druid pops out, Rogue open on the Hunter followed or preceded by a Blind on the Druid. Druid should trinket blind 99% of the time, follow it up with a Fear or two (save spell lock for when you're scatter shotted / silencing shotted) and the Hunter should die easily. | |

| We just take it easy and kill the hunter, start off stunlocking the hunter and sometimes the druid stays in the flare, if so I gouge the druid and theres a fear setup already, I try to get in atleast my starting stunlock quickly before gouging but if you can't imo it's worth gouging the druid to get that fear off. If he isn't in the flare then I usually just blind druid off start and then usually trinket it so my warlock silences then fear into sap and good game. It's not really of a hard team. But I haven't faced many of the top notch hunter/druids so I don't know how this works in the higher bracket. | |
