This article is directed towards all hunters looking to improve their survival spec and glyph choice. If you would like to skip the reasoning behind why I took certain talents and glyphs you find both HERE.

Talents

Tier One of Survival

• [Hunter vs. Wild](3/3): Gives 10% stamina which is amazing for PvP.
• [Pathing](3v3): Taken as a filler talent.  More useful than [Improved Serpent Sting].

Tier Two of Survival

• [Survival Tactics](2/2): Allows for more disengages and fewer trap resists.
• [Trap Mastery](3/3): Keeps [Ice Trap] active for 39 seconds.  Great for kiting.
• [Entrapment](2/2): AoE snare effect for 4 seconds.  Perfect for peeling.
• [Point of No Escape](2/2):  Increases your crit chance by 6% while enemy is affected by [Ice Trap].

Tier Three of Survival

• [Thrill of the Hunt](3/3): One of the best talents for getting extra focus regen.
• [Lock and Load](2/2): By far the best talent in survival.  Provides tons of extra burst.

NOTE: [Counterattack] is not taken because of the lack of parry hunters currently have.

Tier Four of Survival

• [Resourcefulness](3/3): Reduces Trap cooldowns by 6 seconds.  Extremely useful when dropping multiple [Ice Trap] for kiting.
• [Mirrored Blades](2/2): Reflects casted spells back.  Useful to reflect CC back on caster.

Tier Five of Survival

• [Toxicology](2/2): Filler talent.  Increases crit damage of [Serpent Sting]
• [Wyvern Sting](1/1): Used to CC an enemy or interrupt a cast.
• [Noxious Stings](2/2): Increases ALL damage done by 10% when [Serpent Sting] is on your target.  Extremely useful.
• [Hunting Party](1/1):  Increases your agility by 2% and attack speed by 10%.  Extremely useful.

NOTE: [Black Arrow] is not taken because it is dispel-able and has a high focus cost for its damage done.

Tier One of Marksmen

• [Efficiency](3/3): Reduces focus cost of your major damage abilities.

Tier One of Beast Mastery

• [One with Nature](3/3): Filler Talent.  Not very helpful.
• [Bestial Discipline](2/3): Filler Talent.  Not very helpful.

Tier Two of Beast Mastery

• [Spirit Bond](2/2): Increases healing taken by 10%.  VERY IMPORTANT!

Survival Glyphs

Prime Glyphs

• [Glyph of Explosive Shot]: Increases crit chance of survivals main damage ability.
• [Glyph of Arcane Shot]: Increases damage of an important survival ability.
• [Glyph of Kill Shot]: Extremely useful for killing a target when the glyph does not bug out.

Major Glyphs

• [Glyph of Disengage]: This glyph along with [Survival Tactics] gives hunters a 16 seconds [Disengage].  Very helpful.
• [Glyph of Master's Call]: Allows the hunter or a party member to kite longer by increasing the duration of [Master's Call] by 4 seconds.
• [Glyph of Trap Launcher] OR [Glyph of Raptor Strike]: I prefer to use [Glyph of Trap Launcher] because of how often I use [Trap Launcher] however [Glyph of Raptor Strike] is preferred by most hunters.

Minor Glyphs

• [Glyph of Feign Death]: Our best PvP minor glyph.  Use [Feign Death] to stop harmful casts coming your way.
• [Glyph of Scare Beast]: Allows for a less pushed-back [Scare Beast] when being hit.
• [Glyph of Mend Pet]: You will NEVER have to feed a pet again by using this glyph. It will probably save you THOUSANDS of silver!

In Conclusion

This is the current spec/glyph setup I use and I wanted to share it with all of you.  I hope you all enjoyed my first article, I look forward to creating more for you.
