A5s Beast/Hunter Cleave (2347)
Beast/Hunter Cleave is a ranged burst comp built around the hunter's Beast Within window: a CC-immune nuke phase backed by Elemental Shaman and Destro Warlock damage, all propped up by a disc priest and holy paladin. It hits like a truck for eighteen seconds and refuses to die afterward. If the opener doesn't kill, the double-healer backbone lets you reset and go again.
BBeastcleave / KFC (Warrior / Hunter / Paladin)
KFC is TBC's iconic melee cleave: an Arms warrior and a Beast Mastery hunter share two overlapping healing debuffs and dump every cooldown on one target while a Holy Paladin keeps them topped. It wins by making a kill target un-healable, then bursting it down inside a stun. The moment it gets kited and controlled instead of getting to press, it falls apart.
BHunter / Holy Paladin
A patient control comp that wins by attrition and one hard-scripted burst window. The hunter locks the enemy healer out with Freezing Trap, stacks the Aimed Shot healing debuff on the kill target, then dumps Bestial Wrath while the Holy Paladin — the tankiest healer in the bracket — refuses to die. You don't out-damage the meta; you out-position it.
BPHP (Paladin / Hunter / Priest)
A burst-and-control 3s: Ret + Hunter stack a big damage window while the priest and hunter traps lock the enemy healer. Freedom keeps the Ret on target. Strong burst, beatable by patient control.
