I just don't think this is true. I agree that the nerf is too big. I do also think we're not the only problem, but I think we're still a problem. I am also certain that Volley spam is not the reason Steady got nerfed.
I dont know how you could possibly believe that as a raiding hunter. I would never question your ability, knowledge, or skill... but I have to ask if you've actually played your hunter at 80. I notice that youve updated your pally's level on your profile, but your hunter still says 70.
Assuming this is the case, if you had been raiding, Im 100% confident that you would see the same thing that I, and seemingly every other non-fail hunter, sees in a raid. 100% parody.
Even assuming that you dont raid, Im willing to bet that you've done a little more than read some forums in regards to the "op'ness" of hunters. Leth the reports are there. I dont know how anyone can sit and analyze the wws reports and come to the conclusion that hunters are over powered.
its simply not the case.

Those WWS reports represent a specific type of raid: a skilled one.
While it's true that with equal gear and skill we might not be too OP, I'd argue that it takes less skill for us to be OP than some other classes, and so there is a large divide between us OP classes and the rest.
those 2 sentences alone summarize my entire argument against this nerf.

ok, im going to give my 2 cents on this.
Are we over-powered?
To a degree, no. But to the looks of everyone else, its seems we are. I dont think we should be nerfed this badly. But i do see areas where we need some adjustments.
I see all hunters have 2 choices:
1) QQ and play another class
or
2) Pew Pew: go with it and hope they see the error of their ways and re-adjust us.

Personally, I don't believe we're op'd. We're what, 6 weeks into the expansion and the other classes are just starting to catch up with us.
Our guild has 3 groups running NAX 10 and we combine to run 25 once a week. (healers/tanks always go, DPS rotates) I'm in the top 5 for DPS now where as before I would be tops before others got geared up. The nerf is coming too quick and too hard period.
Personally, Blizzard needs to rethink the whole PVP, PVE concept top to bottom. Gear, spells, shots...completely seperate the two from each other and try not to find "common ground" between them. If I spec for PVE, then shots, equipment and the skill how to play PVE is totally different from PVP. Why should I as PVE hunter take a hit when someone else wants to play PVP as a hunter or v/v.
I'll keep my spec as is 51/20, play when the patch comes out and see what real life numbers are produced in NAX, talk to other knowledgeable hunters, read the forums and then decide what's best for me but mostly importantly, let Blizzard know through their forums.

We aren't OP as BM, I was wrecking the meters undergeared but as soon as our Ret Pally and MM Hunter geared up I've fallen on the meters and I'm better geared than the MM hunter. Thus, this nerf isn't really balancing anything except the fact we are slightly stronger at without good gear.
