Having played both a Mage and a Hunter at level 70, I have a much greater appreciation for Hunters that can chain trap. It may not be the most difficult thing in the game, but it does require a lot of awareness and multi-tasking.

That’s very unlike the Mage, where I simply spam Alt-4 - Sheep Focus. Perma-sheep done.

There is one thing you still need us Mages for, though. Free water. When there’s a table to be had, we’re everybody’s best friend.

I’m good at chain trapping now if I could teach everyone else how to not break traps and tanks to not bring there mob all the way across the room and hit my second trap and stuff like that.

Thanks for the movie! The tip about starting the pull after the traps cooldown is up was especially appreciated. Its made a huge difference in being able to chain trap w/ no down time between traps. Thanks bunches!

I don’t know if this video and information was created due to a post I made on your forums concerning pulling mobs in instances, but I’m happy to watch another of your splendid videos as well as copy and paste your pulling macros.

Well done and thanks for all your dedication to the class. It’s very much appreciated.

Another great movie! I’d love to see one however, where you have to handle a resisted trap or broken. When we do Moroes, I usually get to cc Baron Rafe. Sometimes he resists and then drops hammer of justice on me. Ouch!

BTW, I think you should have a link on tankspot.com, especially on #1! Thx!

Another fantastic BRK movie! The 5 man group I usually do instances with only has my traps and my wife’s Boomkin Cyclones for CC, so they’ve learned to love my traps especially since we’ve started heroics!

I have to say I’ve learned a LOT from your site THANK YOU!!! and please keep up the great work!

@Ghostkid

lol yes, I’ve had it happen several times where the tank forgets about my trapped mob and starts to the next pull. Luckily, the tank is usually my husband (unless he’s playing his mage or priest) so I can tell him quickly before he gets any farther and embarrasses us both.

Have you ever been in an instance where you chain-trapped your mob, all of the other mobs are dead, and the tank starts to head to the next pull? This is usually followed by you being subtle, of course…./P Trap.

I consider this quite a compliment. The tank is so used to Hunters not being able to keep the mob on ice that he assumed the trap broke, and the mob was already killed.

Usually at this point the tank is throwing all sorts of compliments my way (”Nice trapping, Davey Crockett!”) I just keep doing my job, and hope I don’t run into too much resist trouble.
