Hunters below level 10 can live without a pet. At level 10 you do the quest and can tame your first pet. Using the pet skill Growl (bought from trainers) you can make your pet hold aggro while you shoot.
At lower levels it gets repetitive, until you have to keep out of melee ranged using traps/skills/talents.
If you need any help on Hunters just PM me - my main is now a level 51 Hunter and doing pretty well!
