Here are the ones I use for my hunter at the moment:
- Fuzzy Logic - condenses Mend, Call, Dismiss and Revive Pet down into a single keybind or macro. It will aslo catch the “your pet is dead” error and cast Revive the next time it is triggered. Mend pet is cast if your pet’s HP% is < 90%.
- FeedPetButton - My favorite pet feeder mod! Select a food for your pet and drop it onto the feed button. Clicking the feed button will drop the selected food onto your pet. When your pet is in “Happy” state, the button becomes transparent and a left-click will not activate it.
- SPHunterSpam - Regroups most melee abilies on one single button (Hunter spam Macro) or throught keybinding. Since I rarely melee at all on my hunter, I like this to free up button space.
- Fizzwidget’s Hunter’s Helper - When you mouse over a beast in the world, the tooltip will show which abilities a Hunter could learn after taming it. (Or no additional info if the beast doesn’t have any known abilities.)
They don't clog your interface, I know what you mean about that.
Also you might want to invest in a good timer mod to show your sting spell durations. I like
Chronometer for that. Easier for me to know when to re-apply stings or other debuff effects to whatever mob I'm killing.
These you may need later on, once you level to 60 and/or plan to raid:
- SimpleTranqShot - A light weight mod that replaces the need for a macro to broadcast when a hunter casts tranqilizing shot. Uses the regular Tranq spell button. Adds some nifty bars to track the cooldowns of other hunters’ tranq shots, and much more. Use the BETA version until the next release!
- HunterVSNefarian - Unequips/equips ranged weapon during Nefarian’s class calls.
If you're not going to raid, then don't worry about those two. But keep them in mind if you do think you want to raid in the future.
I hope all this helps you out! Happy hunting.
