Introduction
Welcome to Method's Havoc Demon Hunter guide for Midnight. I'm Hype, and I play Demon Hunter for Method.
In this guide, I’ll cover the core gameplay loop, provide talent builds, and go over some of the more advanced aspects of the spec.
If you have any questions or feedback regarding the guide, you can find me in the Demon Hunter Discord, or if you catch one of my rare streams on Twitch, you can hit me up there as well.
Why you should Play Havoc Demon Hunter
Strengths:
- Superb mobility
- Exceptional self-sustain through Leech
- Great for solo content
- Brings a raid buff in Chaos Brand
- Strong burst damage with Fel-Scarred
Weaknesses:
- Talenting into AoE sacrifices a lot of single-target damage, and vice versa
- Movement heavy builds can be a liability in certain scenarios
- Melee specs are generally less favored in raids and Mythic+
- With the release of Devourer, Havoc may become less desirable in group content
