Introduction
Welcome to the Method Havoc Demon Hunter guide written by Faithy. I have participated in the RWF event since the launch of Shadowlands and I'm a multi-class DPS player for the Method raid roster.In this guide we will deep dive into Havoc Demon Hunter and I will explain the classes strengths and weaknesses and their overall playstyle and gear prioritization for The War Within!
Why should you play Havoc Demon Hunter?
Strenghts
- Powerful burst of damage with a short cooldown.
- Insanely self-sustainable healing.
- Strong, short cooldown defensives and flat Magic Damage Reduction.
- Consistent AoE damage.
- Highest movability available in the game.
- Brings a raid buff through Chaos Brand and a raid external through Darkness.
Weaknesses
- Relies heavily on movement abilities for damage due to Momentum and similar talents.
- Lack of purely Single Target dps talent options.
- Metamorphosis doesn’t provide a massive buff in AoE situations.
What has changed
Recent Changes
Havoc Demon Hunter have had no major talent / playstyle changes since the large-scale rework in Patch 10.2. However with the introductions of hero talents it influences your talent selections slightly, the usual core gameplay from Dragonflight remains mostly unchanged going into The War Within.
