New BM Spec seems to do more DPS then MM and Surv... Big sup

I do well over 7.5K dps with this spec, and I am not very wll geared. Seems to really work with me. I do have t point out:

1) I get this dps if my video card is giving me decent fps. Sometimes I go down as low as 3 or 4 fps, at which point, i do about 6.5K dps

2) If my latency is low, see #1. Comcast hates WoW.

3) I was using my wolf (Elvus) at the time because my Sapphire Hive Queen (Prikk) was getting too many complaints. Please Blizz, shrink her! I do get a lil better dps from a wasp, but don't have the stable space to get another wasp.

4) If I remember to actually switch tracking to the type of boss we are fighting, i get better dps. I am a nub, and often forget to change my tracking.

Ok, off to take Elvis to the vet. Lemme know what you think about the spec.

If this is true, it's a placebo (unless you're tracking mining or something).

As long as you're tracking ANY of the types in Improved Tracking then you get the bonus damage against enemies of ALL types. (i.e. you can be tracking beasts, but still get improved damage against humanoids)

Those process you love about SV are what I hate with the spec. It makes it far too random and complicated for me. I like my rotation with few distractions, thankyouverymuch. I'm not a fan of the short, incredibly boring BM rotation either tough. I'm weird. Huge surprise, eh?

Not really; I feel the exact same way.

Yep. Track anything and its a free 5% dps. Love that talent.

Anything but hidden. Grrrrrr. Ticks me off when fighting rogues.

Ah indeed.

That's what you have tracking macros for! :D

Ugh, I already have too many macros for arena. >_<

[Saturo]

There are addons for it too.

Go the lazy route and stick pet on Aggressive while Flare is up, heh.

Trying to cut back on those, really.

That definitely doesn't always work.

It's really more of a problem if I forget to swap it back between matches.

The solution then is to stop PvPing and moving onto the REAL endgame! HARDCORE RAIDING!

What are macros? What are add-ons? I don't use either. They seem to really steal from my memory/fps.

As far as tracking goes, i do only put 3 points into.... but i could swaer my dps seems lil higher if i have it on track giant, if the raid boss is a giant. Hmmm... you may be right... placebo effect.

And I really hate rogues and feral kitties. What a bunch of dirty @$$holes. lol

*mumble* Kept getting this one rogue/feral/healer team last night. They decided to go on me first pretty much every time. >_<

Fortunately, we beat them most times.

Speaking of rogues, I had a very good wrathful rogue open on my BM hunter while I was out of window the other day. I'd killed her alt (she was using it to bait high-lvls to Thrallmar). It was a darn close fight, but goddamnit I killed her.

Well.

To be honest... -I- ran around going BIGREDPETLOL and kiting. Valak killed her. (Krush.) Yeah, I played smart & fast; I flared her vanish, serpent stinged her clos etc. But out of 34k dmg done (she popped battlemaster's trink and possibly a health pot), Valak did something like 25k lol. Considering my hunter is my PvE char by far, I was happy with that I'm actually starting to like the dino for PvP--it plays to BM's strengths. Well, strength. "NUKE REALLY FAST OR DIE."

Btw, I'm aware this is entirely off-topic now, and I'm sorry

[Dweezill]

Not off-topic at all. we were taling about how we hate rogues and feral kitties. lol Congrats on the kill.
