Stubborn Chaitee

Stubborn Chaitee

Chaitee's Survival spec is a powerful spec that she really likes. However, there is a "feature" that has Chaitee scratching her head.

Start with a simple attack. Say that Sista wants to attack a hostile target that is in range. Sista would simply right click the hostile and Sista would automatically run to the target and attack it. This works with Sista and with the rest of the family.

Except for Chaitee. When Chaitee right clicks a hostile target, she takes a few steps and then stops well short of her target. Her pet stays in place as well. If her pet is not out, Chaitee will not move at all when right clicking the target. The hostiles targeted are all in range.

Of course Chaitee can use her Harpoon, which causes Chaitee to leap to the target and attack. All well and good. But Harpoon has a cooldown and often Chaitee wants to immediately run to another target - which she can't do. It's frustrating. If harpoon is not up Chaitee has to target a spot "near" the target instead. When there are multiple targets that are trying to kill you that can get really complicated and possibly fatal.

It didn't help when Chaitee saw a review of the hunter survival spec and ranked it the worst spec not only of the hunter class, but of ANY class or spec.

Did that dissuade Chaitee? Is she going to switch to another spec? No. Chaitee is stubbornly sticking to her Survival spec and it's melee mechanics. She just wishes she could figure out how to run to a target and attack. Something is wrong.

Tasting Death

Chaitee pushed a little too hard into her leveling and found herself and her pet dead on a number of occasions. Shel Zuul, a Legion elite that patrols the Pinerock Basin was particularly nasty and she didn't have anyone helping her. Still, she managed to raise her gear score to i768 and made it to Level 109!

And yes, she has left Java behind. Does Chaitee still have a little bit of love for the Auction House? Only if Java is handing over gear. Chaitee is very happy to have Java handling the gold. Java is content with the job. At least for now.

Oh, and one more thing  . . .  as of Sunday afternoon Chaitee is Level 110!
