Hunters start shooting sharp sticks at you from a great distance effectively turning you into a pin cushion before you can even get a swing in. Hunters toss traps on the ground to slow you down and can hit you with an assortment of slowing and confusing arrows. Add a cleverly name pet, "fluffy", chomping on you and a hunter is dishing out some serious DPS all at a safe distance.
By the time, the up side for you is to catch them you're amply frustrated and full of rage, usually both in real life and as a Warrior.
Any Hunter worth his weight in arrows is not going to go toe to toe with you; he wears mail and melee hits like a soft sponge, you have plate and hit like a train. It is inevitable that Hunters will try to run. Once you have intercepted the Hunters, most of them will drop an ice trap of some sorts. This is why it is crucial to hamstring or Howl immediately after intercept to reduce his movement speed to match yours after you hit his trap. The other option is to use fear. This is effective for two reasons. One is that his pet will run away seriously reducing the DPS your taking and another is that he will run away too but not far and he will not be hitting you while he is running.
If you're lucky enough to get a charge in before you begin battle kudos to you, it won't happen often so enjoy the moment and introduce your new Hunter friend to and then begin showing him why you don't bring a pointy stick to a Warrior fight. Now for the other 98% of the times you don't get a charge in intercept. For the most part, you'll want to PVP against Hunters in your berserker stance simple if you have to switch stance do it because intercept eliminates one of the two problems you'll face as a Warrior.
If you have intercept your life should be 100% easer, as you'll be able to close the gap during battle and in some instances you'll even want to let a hunter think they are running away while you bandage and then intercept for another round of a great game called "Hit the Hunter."
Depending on your spec and gear, you are going to be looking at 20-30 seconds after the initial intercept till your next intercept, this is why it is so crucial to hamstring or howl to keep you close to him at all times.
As usual, it'll take anywhere from 10-15 seconds for a good hunter to find a way to get away from you in some way shape or form, if you see your intercept is cooling down let him. Get some distance between you and him and intercept again, 3 seconds of free "Hit the Hunter" is always good and will generally ensure your victory. It will take 1-3 intercept cycles to kill a Hunter.
Even your slippery new Hunter friend manages to get away and starts the pin cushion thing again there's a little thing called line of sight, this means if he can't see you and hit you. The WoW gods have seen fit to add some sense of reality to this situation. So if you need to duck behind a building there is nothing wrong with a tactically retreating Warrior. Wait for intercept to come back into play and then re-introduce your Hunter friend to your weapon.
There is an advice for you: it is pointless to attack your pet. There is a rare instance where this may be beneficial, just be make sure that you are quick about it.
