TBC Classic Survival Hunter Aldor or Scryer

We recommend going Scryer as a Survival Hunter in TBC Classic. The Scryer shoulder enchant,
Greater Inscription of the Blade
, is slightly better than the Aldor
Greater Inscription of Vengeance
. There are no other note-worthy benefits from either faction.
