A huge thank you, and all the credit, to Navarrus ( http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Draka&n=Navarrus ) for the fantastic and quite extensive work put into this thread.
With a bit of guilty conscience I retain the right to revise and edit this guide, and as such I take the full responsibility for it's content. To view it's original content follow the above posted link.
If you spot any mistakes, blame them on Griffen and let me know. If you see something you find excellent it was probably Navarrus who wrote it.
<<<WotLK WARNING>>>
A lot of things will change for WotLK. Such as the unlinking of auto shots, new pet talents, changed racials and changes to profession, making a lot of the advice in this guide invalid.
If you f.ex. are going to choose a race and a profession with a focus on the WotLK the advice in this guide is currently not solid, and I will advice to research a bit for changes in WotLK.
wotlk.wowhead.com, wotlkwiki.info, and mmo-champion.com is sources for wotlk info that you could check out for this.
OBSOLETE OBSOLETE OBSOLETE
Any part in this guide referring to talents and speccs, races, professions, shot rotations, pets, macro's and addons is now obsolete. I will edit this post at a later time time to remove the obsolete information, but it will probably not be updated in it's entirety for WotLK.

PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE POST BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS!!!
The list was started to hopefully help out people who have the questions that every one of us asks at one point in out career as a hunter, and usually see 3-4 threads on the front page about it.
The points made here are not based on personal opinion, but on reasonable and validly argued responses read by either Navarrus or Griffen on our respective forums.
So, here we go!!
