You haven't been playing with many good hunters then. A bst hunter would decimate any speccd wars dps of the same tiered gear. Even a decently geared MM speccd hunter could out dps ms/fury war. Enh shammies also can outdps wars on a regular basis solely based on their TF crits. Maybe if you had the Warglaives then I would believe it.

But Pre-Bc a war outdpsing a hunter meant one of several things: 1) The hunter had crappy gear and had no knowledge at all of what a shot rotation was 2) The hunter was severely undergeared or 3) You're bullshitting. I mean it did happen on occasion. I was fortunate enough to be guilded with the best dps war in our server (Kali wotwot) and he repeatedly beat me on the meters...until my gear caught up. Then it was a matter of what boss we were doing.
