HuntardHelper

A lightweight swing timer and rotation recommender for Hunters in TBC Classic / Classic
Anniversary. Shows you exactly what to press and when, based on your current haste and
weapon speed.

NEXT

uptime

and context-aware use/save recommendations

Bloodlust/Heroism)
- Target Info — Boss/Elite/Rare classification, health %, time-to-die estimate, and casting
detection

- Latency Compensation — Uses GetNetStats() with a safety buffer so recommendations account
for your connection
