I usually play a mage. One of the things I really enjoy is running old instances solo and whilst doing so I like to use AOE extensively.

Anyway I'm thinking of making a hunter and although I think they're probably a much better class to solo instances with I'm a bit concerned about their AOE.

As far as I know their only real AOE ability is volley so I just wondered how effective it is against packs of elite mobs and how good would a tenacity pet be to hold aggro while using it. I also wondered about mana management while using volley a lot as well.

Thanks
