Imho, I think that Blizzard should:

A) Reduce the cost of ammo even more, and make it purchaseable/createable in stacks of 1000 rather than 200, like how much it stacks at the moment. Either that or remove the need for them altogether and introduce non consumeable Relic style items that boost Damage Per Second and even have secondary effects like additional Fire, Frost, Arcane etc damage.

B) Fix our "5 yards or less and you're screwed" range issues. We're the only class with a minimum range which is quite unfair in PVP (as we rely on kiting all the time, which is near impossible long term due to the amount of snares/gap closers other classes have), and in PvE (particularly when tactics involve hugging the boss/tank or the boss has a massive hitbox)

C) Give us Auto Shot whilst moving. I dislike Ghostcrawler's argument that moving should be a "penalty." I don't see Mages getting a damage penalty when they can just run around spamming their high critting instants.

you guys seriously dont need your dead zone taken away...iv seen alot of good hunters and they never get touched...so if you cant keep someone at bay with all the stunning/sleeping/slowing shots you have even several traps that slow and hold you there (if specced) then theres something wrong with you...sure...warriors have charge thats what a traps for...a rogue shadowsteps to you..lay down a trap or even wingclip/disengage...i dont play a high level hunter but from my experience from just the 30-39 bracket...hunters have alot of tools at there disposal to get away/stay away from there oppenent...just need to learn to use them..

p.s even your pets can stun/hold your enemies still...imo you have too many way of staying away..

This is what fighting a stealthed rogue as a Hunter is more like

1) Lay down a Freezing Trap right under you and Flare
2) (80%+ of the time, this is the case) Watch as the rogue effortlessly disarms your trap and goes in for the stunlock. Not even the flare will stop him from doing so.
3) Try escaping with trinket, disengage, wing clip etc
4) Rogue sprints and uses OP 70% slow (Crippling Poison)
5) Continue trying to escape then get killed.
