Everyone should be over the myth that hunters are weapon hogs "Hunter item", in fact if anything everyone else has hogged all melee weapons, and usually tell hunters not to roll, or “Anyone that can use that item may roll on it”.

I'm fed up with warrior/rogues/pallys not understanding, that while this item might be good for you, because all you do is use it for the damage. It might help your guild or the party out, to start letting hunters get items (that they might only use 20% of the time) but will significantly boost their dps.

You know how long a hunter has their melee weapons? I can tell you, it’s probably 5-10 times longer (sometimes longer) then a warrior or rogue will. You are constantly getting new and better upgraded melee weapons. While a hunter is usually passed over for any weapon that isn’t ranged (because hunters don't melee), is just wrong.

While I understand the logic behind your view of a hunter not using it as often, hence they don’t deserve it. It’s just not the case. While it is true, we don’t have to melee 0.1% as much as you might, it adds to our RaP, Crit %, and Hit % and it's the same logic. While melee weapons are almost like trinkets to us, they are still a very valuable piece of what makes us good hunters. Try using a damage chart, and you’ll see how valuable a good hunter is in a raid/party.

That’s my 2 cents
