WOW Classic: Hunters and Their Pets

Here are some links with pet info.  Most appear to be older.  If you are a beginner doing the quests to get pets, use Stay to get rid of one pet or get out of aggro range of the first pet so you can tame a second.  Or get it killed.  (There doesn't seem to be a Dismiss key early on.)

Remember, your pet won't be able to do anything until you find a pet trainer (will be next to the hunter trainer but not all locations have pet trainers).

Use your pet to draw aggro away from you.  You can tell it to go to certain places.  Send it a slight distance away so the monster will attack it instead of you.  You can resurrect it over and over once you have a pet tamed.

You have to adapt your play style to the pet in Classic WOW.  Pets are not alike in everything but  their appearance in the original vanilla WOW.  So look at these links and pick the best pet for how you play.  Here's information about various pets and their builds.

Warcraft Tavern has a list of all rare hunter pets in a database you can sort.  This appears to be for Vanilla WOW/Classic WOW.

WOW Classic: Travel Tips

Traveling in Classic WOW is difficult.  There aren't any docks to travel from, for example.  Pick up flight paths everywhere you go if they are available and utilize hearth stones.  A hearth stone can be gotten from an innkeeper.  That makes that inn your "home."  You can always go back to that inn if you use your hearthstone.
