Rat Killer
Cuddling, the Draenei hunter with the most beautiful pet in the world, is growing and recently she finished off a quest in Borean Tundra which awarded her a Gun!
Now, Cuddling is not a fan of guns really because of the loud sound they make, scaring every prey within a kilometer off once she presses that trigger. No, much to the annoyance of the resident hunters of her guild, she’ll take a silent deadly bow or possibly crossbow over a gun any day.
But this was a blue gun, and she was toting an old green crossbow which she had found lying in a ditch somewhere in Outland, so she set her doubts aside and woved to get a silencer asap, donned a pair of ear protectors, grabbed the gun from Thassarian’s clutches and threw her old crossbow out.
Only to find out that her Gun skill was the amazing 1/360.
So what’s a girl to do?
Well, she travelled to Ironforge, entered the Deeprun Tram and set about to single-handedly exterminate the entire rat population there.
Armed with her gun and cheap bullets she made a macro to speed up her shoot-out:
/target Deeprun Rat
/cast Autoattack
And the shooting started. As the rat kills numbered in tens and then hundreds, passengers arriving or leaving on the Tram had to detour around the rat corpses piling up, and some even stopped to admire her dedication to keep the rat infestation of the Deeprun Tram at bay, or possibly question her sanity.
“You really have a problem with rats, don’t you?”
It didn’t take her long to kill the 400+ rats needed to max her gun skill, and get a few Sword skillups as well from a ferocious rat or two coming to close.
But it is a bit too noisy for her liking, and she will keep her eyes out for a new bow or crossbow.

Ahahaha – that’s a really great way to skill up your gun! I’m sure the citizens of the Tram (all three of them) are pleased with your efforts.
And I really agree with you – I have a baby hunter and I will make every effort to level her with crossbows and bows rather than guns. They’re so loud and rather Dwarvish ;)

A very socially responsible way to level up your gun skill!
And I envy your fabulous pink chicken greatly.

Thanks very much for the idea!!! Since I am a caster and rarely use my weapons or fists…I now know what to do to level those up. Nice post, and yes, I like your pink pet too. Cantique-Earthen Ring.
