Hunters were given a lot of loving in the latest patch of Blizzard's World of Warcraft. A recent forum post found on the MMO-Champion forums was able to compile all undocumented list of changes for Patch 2.4.2.

Among the other changes included were buffs to several items as well as some tweaks made to the Jewelcrafting and Leatherworking professions. However, please be advised that all the changes listed below still haven't been confirmed by the developers. Players interested in seeing which of these changes will make it in the actual game will have to wait for the next PTR to roll in before breaking out into song.
