'''Aspect of the Dragonhawk''' is an [[Animal Aspects|Animal Aspect]] that is a combination of [[Aspect of the Hawk]] and [[Aspect of the Monkey]]. Any talents that affect Aspect of the Hawk or Aspect of the Monkey also affect Aspect of the Dragonhawk.

== Rank table ==
−
'''Riding''' is a secondary [[profession]] in which [[character]]s may learn to ride [[mount]]s. Every mount has a minimum skill level required for riding.
 
 
{| class="darktable zebra" style="text-align: center;"
−  
−
In general, a normal mount will require [[Apprentice]] riding skill, and a swift mount will require [[Journeyman]] skill, but there are exceptions.
 
−  
−
''More detail on the requirements for each mount can be found on the [[mount]]s page.''
 
−  
−
== Skill levels ==
 
−
The following table lists the skill levels available and the cost to train each skill. Due to the high cost of training, the price with discount is also listed in the table. The only discounts available are [[faction discount]]s, which vary depending on where you train in the riding skill:
 
−  
−
*Apprentice and Journeyman riding are discounted based on your standing with whatever race you buy them from. All playable races have trainers.
 
−
*Expert riding can be discounted by buying it in {{Alliance}} [[Honor Hold]] or {{Horde}} [[Thrallmar]], which will apply a [[Stormwind]] or [[Orgrimmar]] discount, respectively.
 
−
*Artisan riding can be discounted in {{Alliance}} [[Honor Hold]] or {{Horde}} [[Thrallmar]] in the same fashion as Expert, or it can be discounted with [[Valiance Expedition]] and [[Warsong Offensive]] rep by going to {{Alliance}} [[Valiance Keep]] and {{Horde}} [[Warsong Hold]], respectively.
 
−
*Be aware that there are some trainers who give no discounts at all, such as the one in {{Neutral}} [[Dalaran]].
 
−  
−
Also, note that the prices listed for the mount itself refer to the basic mounts available to each race, usually purchasable from a vendor near the riding trainer. Special, reputation reward, or vanity mounts may cost more or require special currency to purchase. To save space, faction discounts on the mounts themselves are not included in the table.

Aspect of the Dragonhawk is meant to be a replacement for both [[Aspect of the Hawk]] and [[Aspect of the Monkey]]. Because hunters often switch from Aspect of the Hawk to Aspect of the Monkey when they engage in melee combat, the intent of this new skill was to remove the [[global cooldown]] penalty by merging these two aspects into a single one.<ref>{{ref web |title = Upcoming Hunter Changes, Part II |accessdate = 2008-10-28 |author = Ghostcrawler |url = http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=11228504361&pageNo=1&sid=2000#0 |date = 2008-10-15 }}</ref>
−
*[[Death Knight]]s receive the 150 skill at character creation (level 55); they learn to summon an [[Acherus Deathcharger (ability)|Acherus Deathcharger]], a swift land mount, as a quest in the Acherus starting zone.
 
   
  +
Aspect of the Dragonhawk replaces Aspect of the Hawk completely for PVE use - rank 1 of Dragonhawk is an upgrade to the highest rank (8) of Aspect of the Hawk.
−
*[[Druid]]s receive the 225 skill (if they already have 150) with {{ability|Flight Form}} at level 60.
 
   
  +
== Talent improvement ==
−
*[[Paladin]]s receive the 75 skill as part of buying their level 20 mount spell from their trainer. At level 60 they can complete the [[Charger]] quest chain which rewards the Journeyman riding skill (and a Feat of Strength). (Training the Charger at level 40 does not provide Journeyman riding skill.)
 
  +
*[[Improved Aspect of the Hawk]] ([[Beast Mastery]] [[Talent]]): While Aspect of the Dragonhawk is active, all normal ranged attacks have a 10% chance of increasing ranged attack speed by 3% per rank (5 ranks total) for 12 sec.
  +
*[[Improved Aspect of the Monkey]] (Beast Mastery Talent): Increases the dodge bonus of Aspect of the Dragonhawk by 2% per rank (3 ranks total).
  +
*[[Aspect Mastery]] (Beast Mastery Talent): Gains both the effects for Aspect of the Hawk (Increases the ranged attack power bonus of Aspect of the Dragonhawk by 30%) and Aspect of the Monkey (All damage taken is reduced by 5% while Aspect of the Dragonhawk is active).
   
  +
== Tips and tactics ==
−
*[[Warlock]]s also receive the 75 skill as part of buying their level 20 mount spell from their trainer. At level 60 they can complete a quest to learn their [[Dreadsteed]] summon and get Journeyman riding skill (and a Feat of Strength). (Like paladins, training to summon the fast mount at level 40 does not reward the riding skill.)
 
  +
In any situation where Aspect of the Hawk or Aspect of the Monkey would normally be used, Aspect of the Dragonhawk will replace both. Instead of having to cycle between three Aspects in a PVP encounter, you can now use Aspect of the Dragonhawk continuously until mana regeneration is needed, at which point you should use [[Aspect of the Viper]].

*Any character that owns a 310% speed flying mount (such as [[Reins of the Violet Proto-Drake]]) automatically learns Master Riding Skill at no cost, making all other flying mounts 310% speed.

Note that like all professions, all lower ranked skill levels must be learned before training further (e.g. Expert skill is required to train Artisan skill).

[[Category:Removed hunter abilities]][[Category:Removed hunter abilities]]

Aspect of the Dragonhawk is an Animal Aspect that is a combination of Spell nature ravenform [Aspect of the Hawk] and Ability hunter aspectofthemonkey [Aspect of the Monkey]. Any talents that affect Aspect of the Hawk or Aspect of the Monkey also affect Aspect of the Dragonhawk.

Rank table

Rank Level Ranged Attack Power Bonus Cost
1 74 230 28g 50s
2 80 300 28g 50s

Notes

Aspect of the Dragonhawk is meant to be a replacement for both Spell nature ravenform [Aspect of the Hawk] and Ability hunter aspectofthemonkey [Aspect of the Monkey]. Because hunters often switch from Aspect of the Hawk to Aspect of the Monkey when they engage in melee combat, the intent of this new skill was to remove the global cooldown penalty by merging these two aspects into a single one.[1]

Aspect of the Dragonhawk replaces Aspect of the Hawk completely for PVE use - rank 1 of Dragonhawk is an upgrade to the highest rank (8) of Aspect of the Hawk.

Talent improvement

  • Spell nature ravenform [Improved Aspect of the Hawk] (Beast Mastery Talent): While Aspect of the Dragonhawk is active, all normal ranged attacks have a 10% chance of increasing ranged attack speed by 3% per rank (5 ranks total) for 12 sec.
  • Ability hunter aspectofthemonkey [Improved Aspect of the Monkey] (Beast Mastery Talent): Increases the dodge bonus of Aspect of the Dragonhawk by 2% per rank (3 ranks total).
  • Ability hunter aspectmastery [Aspect Mastery] (Beast Mastery Talent): Gains both the effects for Aspect of the Hawk (Increases the ranged attack power bonus of Aspect of the Dragonhawk by 30%) and Aspect of the Monkey (All damage taken is reduced by 5% while Aspect of the Dragonhawk is active).

Tips and tactics

In any situation where Aspect of the Hawk or Aspect of the Monkey would normally be used, Aspect of the Dragonhawk will replace both. Instead of having to cycle between three Aspects in a PVP encounter, you can now use Aspect of the Dragonhawk continuously until mana regeneration is needed, at which point you should use Ability hunter aspectoftheviper [Aspect of the Viper].
