Compiled from the achievement comments section:

Nightmareic: Hunter: Wait for him to cast Wild Barrage and pop a speed increase and start strafing in all different directions. I used my nitro boost and ran around.

I found that the speed boost is not necessary. If you've been raiding or simply did the quests to get here with no trouble from similar abilities, then you'll have NO problem here. He's even slower than the giant's boulder throw.

Edradred: Also I am personally finding the hunter part extremely infuriating. I have killed about twenty of them, and only two have had the ability, and the two that had it only casted it when I was swamped by sentinels and other hounds. Great.

I'm surprised that this is true. It took me a few hunters to find one with barrage.

I had to kill around 20 of them as well. 4 or so of them had the barrage.

Although speed-boosters are not completely necessary, they do help A LOT. Avoiding the shadows didn't really help for me either, I avoided them and still got hit. o.O

Some helpful tips:
-If you can, try to kill the hound before dpsing the hunter, or it could daze you while you're trying to run around from the Wild Barrage.
-Using Swiftness Potions to increase your speed may help as well.
-If avoiding the shadows doesn't really work for you, try strafing side-to-side/around in many different directions.

ok i have a possible theory...

i had the same hunter after trying a few, and decided to try each of the different npc's near lava and not near. when not near, i couldnt get them to do their special ability for achievement... when i was near lava, they did, although sometimes waited perhaps 1 minute or more...so it may well be possible that its not the fact 'some' do and 'some' dont cast the ability, but perhaps your positioning of being near lava or not that made the difference?

Take the sentinel for example, he says 'how would you like to go for a swim' when he picks you up. how can u go for a swim if your not near any lava to swim in?

when i got the hunter achieve, it was near lava, did NOT cast within the first 10 secs, nor even 20, but it did it about a total of 4 times after having adds fail me, and not running properly... (read on for my solving of failing to run properly :P)

i also believe he throws the arrows/shadows appear where you have previously been, so running randomly wont help, run in a huge S shape WITHOUT going back on a previous path u run, and you should be ok.

These mobs are MCable. Not all of the have the ability when MC'd, but interestingly the ones who DO have the ability don't always use it.

I think it will work to duel somebody, then MCing the Hunter to force him to use his ability on them :D

I can confirm it does happen when he is not near lava although it does seem more frequent perhaps. Anyways I pulled hunter with avenger's shield, odd thing is his pet glitched and reset aggro, as soon as that happened he barraged. So maybe he barrages out of anger because is pet is dead? I personally think it is somewhat random.

Also, just to clarify, you have to wait for the Barrage to finish.

Won't credit you if you kill him early.

Kommentar von bratmonkey

wild barrage is not exclusive to being near/in the lava.

you do not have to kill the lavawaker hunter in order to get the achievement.

when you see him start to channel the barrage, simply run back and forth until it is over. When he is finished you will have that requirement fulfilled, and you can then decide whether or not you want to kill it too.

Kommentar von Esploratore

I never tried this seriously, so I only got the wild barrage like twice a day and tried to avoid it, but always got hit twice at least.

So, today, I decided to get this part of achievement, started looking for hunters, and I have to confirm what someone here said: like 15-20 hunters killed to get 2 wild barrages!

Apart from this, on the first attempt I got hit by ALL the hits (wasn't ready at all), on the second one I wasn't actually ready, as soon as I killed the charhound he started with his barrage, so I decided to try anyway, even if I thought I'd have failed, ran away without even using heroic leap (warrior jumping ability) or potions, and when I was quite far I turned in circle on the right, and to my big surprise he didn't hit me.

So, yeah, in my opinion the hardest thing here is that there's like 10% if not less to get one with the ability.

Kommentar von hobobob099

I noticed the only way I could get barrage to work was if I had the hunter be shot into the lava while he had his dog still alive. Now this didnt work all the time. I say it worked 3 out of 5 times for me.

Kommentar von MASDERCHEEF

can anyone confirm whether or not Deterrence works with "avoiding" Wild Barrage?

Kommentar von Zeddica

Please note that Ice Block'ing through his Wild Barrage will not award the achievement.

Kommentar von Verdice

If you screw up the Wild Barrage, you can use the steam vents (or just good ol' fashioned running like hell) to reset the Hunter and try again. :)

Also don't sit around patiently for your hunter to use it. He either will in the first 6-7 seconds of the fight or he won't at all.

Kommentar von eddu

It seems that they only cast Wild Barrage when you are on the quest Flamewakers of the Molten Flow and don't have the quest listed as "completed"

Kommentar von Robbie

If you are wondering what achievement people are talking about it is:
'Master of the Molten Flow'

Kommentar von Ganic

I am 90% sure that Wild Barrage is actually entirely luck-based.

I spent about an hour running around fighting Hunters and developed a pretty good intuition on how to handle Barrage and by the end of the hour, I was able to visibly dodge the entire barrage, but despite not touching a spear nor shadow or even after running 60+ yards away, I'd still inevitably take one or two hits from it.

It seems to me like the animations, including the airborne spears and the shadows on the ground, have nothing to do with actually dodging the attack and earning the achievement.

I tried every strategy mentioned across multiple sites, including wowhead, and even when I visibly never intersected with a spear or shadow or even let a shadow get between me and the Hunter or myself to get between a shadow a Hunter, I'd still get one or two hits in the combat log.

So infuriating.
