Havoc Demon Hunter PvP Guide in Battle for Azeroth (Shadowlands Pre-Patch 9.0.1)

Havoc Demon Hunters are the most feared class in the game. They not only have strong crowd control in the form of stuns and kicks, but they also have the strongest offensive cooldown in the game, Metamorphosis; on a relatively short cooldown, you can easily swap to an enemy without a trinket and kill them in a stun.

• Great mobility
• Strong burst and sustained damage
• Multiple utility spells

• Weak against teams with multiple stuns
• Predictable burst damage
• Very little team composition diversity
