The demon hunter becomes an outsider. They mainly use fel and shadow energy. They can channel the chaos energy within them into a melee weapon to increase its powers. In time they become more proficient in channeling demonic energy into their weapons, and highly skilled demon hunters are adept at this technique.
Demon hunters have shown the ability to cover their bodies in a shell of flame. They can also unleash the demon in them and temporarily turn themselves into something more. Playable demon hunters are immortal. They cannot be permanently killed. Illidan revealed this during the demon hunter starting experience; their soul will make its way to the Twisting Nether.
There, they will wait until they find a suitable body to inhabit. It is unknown if this pertains to all demon hunters or just playable demon hunters, although there is one who was revived by Kil'jaeden in the Twisting Nether which suggests that not just playable demon hunters are immortal.
Though equipment obviously varies between them, one universal element of the order seems to be the blindfold. Used to conceal the remains of the demon hunters' mutilated eye sockets, the demon hunter blindfold is usually some dark but mundane-looking fabric. Blindfolds are occasionally neglected, perhaps to make the demon hunter appear more frightening and intimidating. A second common occurrence among demon hunters is the tendency for males to be stripped to the waist, which is just one display of the demon hunters' emphasis on the importance of agility and general rejection of heavier armor.
Those female demon hunters that have surfaced have been similarly garbed, wearing only the bare minimum of clothing on their upper bodies, sometimes even nothing at all. Demon hunters further tend to wear what appears to be cloth or leather, favoring greater speed and agility on the battlefield.
Demon hunters carry large, curved warglaives in the style of Illidan Stormrage's Twin Blades of Azzinoth. Though the exact reason for this tendency isn't explained, there are several possible reasons.
One is that this kind of weapon has simply become a tradition over the years, later demon hunters mimicking the first of their kind. Another is that this style of curved warglaives is common among the kind of demons that demon hunters have to kill as part of their basic initiation process. A third explanation is that the dual-bladed nature of their large, curved weapons allows them to deal the most damage with the least amount of effort, allowing them to focus on their agility and speed.
A final explanation is that this kind of weapon is somehow easier to magically charge or channel through. These blades appear as a strange cross between a small buckler and a sharp-looking, curved, two-bladed short sword.
The demon hunters of the night elves wear these blades while they hunt the minions of the Scourge , the Burning Legion, or other dark adversaries. While many demon hunters rely on non-magic weapons, eventually most have either one of these double blades or a matching pair. The use of such weapons tells a lot about the individual wielding them. The inwardly-curving nature of the blades means that demon hunters must get extremely close to their opponent in order to get maximum use of the blades.
The glaives would be swung in wide arcs at extreme speed, viciously lacerating the foe. More often than not, the warglaives will have intricate serrations on the outer edge of the blade near the central buckle, adding yet another facet to the brutal nature of the weapons. Night elf society shuns demon hunters. Most night elves don't understand the noble sacrifice that demon hunters make; therefore, they make another sacrifice: to be outcasts from their society.
Other cultures share the night elves' distrust of demon hunters, and the shadowy individuals are not welcome in cities throughout the Alliance or Horde-controlled lands. Citizens and soldiers may allow a demon hunter to stay at an inn or take a brief rest at a tavern, but they watch them warily and breathe sighs of relief when they leave. These people do not see demon hunters for the heroes and martyrs they are; they see them as dangerous individuals who consort with dark powers, almost as bad as warlocks.
Such ignorance embitters many demon hunters, and most are solitary souls. Some are fortunate enough to find the company of a few individuals who appreciate them, or at least show them little ill will. Recently, knowledge of a secret order of demon hunters has come to light. Little is known of who they are, but they call themselves the Dark Embrace.
Hints of their path have surfaced in the days following the Cataclysm, rumored to be found in the bleak lands of Darkshore and the tainted glades of Felwood.

Demon hunters heal using the souls of those they've slain. As Demon Hunters may only wear up to Leather armor, Leatherworking and Skinning may be a good choice. It is unknown at this time if Blacksmithing will receive plans for new Demon Hunter weapons, so this may be a sub-optimal choice. Lore wise, Enchanting would be a decent choice as well, as they would have an implicit understanding of the magic involved in destroying or imbuing an object with arcane energy.

PVP: i can say that the game is going to a real fall out PVP wise, since the coming of the stupid expansion 5.
Will it divide Outland by zero? So many questions about Legion that Blizzard still refuses to answer. It will stay a mystery just like whether or not Satan has been designing the Ro'Shambo drop rate in the Tillers. Comment by Rankkor We were not prepared. I am kinda sad though, that we wont be able to use our wings as a class-exclusive mount.
I was hoping that demon hunters would be able to use their wings to actually fly, similarly to the druid's flight form, but alas, no such luck. Closest equivalent we are getting is gliding down, which is nowhere near as awesome. I can always hope they change their minds eventually. Comment by wisedada Demon Hunters are now immune to Blind.
Source : Latest Patch notes. Blizzard april fool's in case you are wondering :. Seems to me that making DHs mail wearers would be more logical and fair. This could potentially cause imbalance in drops and raid set ups.
First it's gonna be too easy simple for DHs, and totally unfair towards everybody else. Just ask any druid or paladin how they feel when they have 3 specs they like, but only 2 slots for dual spec. Comment by fameneiros I'm looking forward to the game or beta. Although some have never given me in 10 years. So stick with the only thing left me hope.
Comment by Froopy Looking so much forward to play a DH! Guess it will be much fun :. Comment by Bracia It's too bad that like every new class, everyone and their mother is going to have one. Comment by Tasdingo I think Blizzard should consider a glyph for permanent wings either for flying or just generally. Comment by Aspexis cannot wait for demonz :D.

Used to having garrison hearthstone and also one for an inn of your choice. So I have my Demon Hunter hearthstone for Mardum. So when I get to Stormwind I get a hearthstone for an inn in Stormwind. Now no hearthstone for Mardum. No way I know of to get back to Mardum, but not sure I will ever need to.
