[:1]Hey everybody! New to Cataclysm but not new to WoW. I've taken a break and am wondering if this forum could answer some of my questions. I'm interested in leveling up a hunter because I think the overall class lore and mechanics are pretty cool and exciting. I've played a Mage/Druid/Warrior before and am looking for something different.
On with the questions:
1. How many keybinds/macros are required to play the class in an efficient way? On my warrior, it seemed like I had to spend around 2 hours to get up macros and keybinds. On my mage, I only really had keybinds which was nice as the setup wasn't that extensive.
2. Does operating a pet require a lot of micro-managing? I really think leveling and playing with a pet is cool but does it get old having to manage one all the time?
3. How is the new focus system? I know it works kind of like energy and when I played my rogue it seemed like most of the time in dungeons I was "Not enough energy". I felt like I had to have an internal 2-second clock in my head so I would know when my next tick of energy came to do another backstab or something.
Anything else you'd like to add? Thanks everybody for the answers. I appreciate your time.

There is no set number. It really depends on your play style and what kind of mouse/keyboard you have. I honestly only run with a cancel deterrence aura macro, engineering gloves macro, and a misdirect macro. Again, that's just me. There are others who have a macro for every single thing.

It really doesn't. You can either have a pet attack macro bound to your opening shot (serpent sting is common for raids) or press ctrl+1. Personally, I can't imagine leveling without a pet. I honestly love it. I did not find them cumbersome really, but they sometimes get in the way as you're trying to loot. That's about it.

It takes a little getting used to, but I can't fathom ever going back to mana. There is literally zero down time with leveling, raids, and 5 mans. PVP is another story, but it's all about adapting. We're not the "hot class" when it comes to arenas at the moment, but it's all perspective. You have a controlled way to gain focus back and many of your "OMG" buttons (feign death, disengage, deterrence, kill shot) cost zero focus. A real bonus.
I have every move i use bound, and thats alot including traps and whatnot. not much in the ways of macros
pets 95% of the time is set on auto attack and forget about it, sometimes you gotta tell ti to stop attacking or switch targets
focus is fine, imagine playing a distance rogue.
