have you thought to have one or two spec into MM? or even deep into SV for Expose weakness...
scatter shot will deal with sneaky druids and rogues, and also to get some distance to warrior and enchant shammy, also will shot off mages that like AoE or pries closing in with fear bomb
silent shot will really help with casters total obliteration : )
and get few boars with charge (scatter replacement when you are CC)
1. if I would of been in your place I would spec them all in MM, first improved sting and x4 Vipers on healer.... and having Silents on rotation can shot of healer until he is dead, at least I think in theory.
2. don't forget about Mortal shot where there two healers, which is always.
3. shot multi if you know you will hit three+ enemies, having it in macro with trinket boosting AP and gladiator glove and talents won't hurt. 1.5~1.7crits are nice followed by Arcanex4... ouch
4. obviously FOCUS macro and learn switch between any of them on the fly, because if one of them targeted better engage him in some CQC with wing clip and kite outside 5yard deadzone of others might prove useful.
5. traps... expecting rogue/druid plant Explosive/snakes traps with lots of flares, expecting suicidal shadow priest/mage I think freezing traps will work better, but who know, better experiment, I seen snakes traps worked on pallys, lol
6. ImpHawk barely procs with MM, but better in BM, AoMonkey works wonders against rogues/druids,
7. FIND MACRO TO DRINK INSTANTLY as drop agro, drink, shadowmeld(NE)
8. hunters more of sustained DPS with little pool of mana, basically know your weaknesses, don't let other team drain your mana, don't stay in one place, don't get beaten up, you are not a tank, find a way to burst SS,MS / MS,AS, when you are on a run Stings and AS all the time
9. Imp Concussive shot might prove more reliable times 4, better make it rotational macro, like Silent and Scatter shots rotational macros
10. Use one of following spam macros, (still need modification to work with global FOCUS for switching main hunters)
MAIN DPS SPAM 1:1
/assist [noharm] pet
/stopmacro [noharm]
/cast [exists,target=pettarget] Kill Command
/castsequence reset=1 Steady Shot, !Auto Shot
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
MAIN DPS SPAM 2:3
/cast [target=pettarget, exists] Kill command
/cast !Auto Shot
/cast Steady shot
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
2:3 = 2auto shots:3steady shots,
for example: auto shot, steady shot, steady shot, auto shot, steady shot.
so if you clip an auto shot you get a steady shot back to back therefore not waiting for the auto shot cooldown. so you get 5 shots instead of 4.
for some hunters it have considerable DPS increase for increased mana consumption.
and make separate macro for petattack, maybe with charge and recall pet build in, no I don't have example, never got to it, I just know it possible.
believe it or not, following will call your pet back and select pets target he just fought,if you didn't had anything targeted at all. It is perfect for calling your pet back by clearing your target and using this macro
/assist [noharm] pet
/petpassive [noexists]
I wonder if adding something like that could break it, or add more functionality
/petattack [pettarget, noexists]
or just have
/petattack
/stopmacro [harm]
/assist [noharm] pet
/petpassive [noexists]
or even better...
/petattack
/stopmacro [pettarget, exists]
/assist [noharm] pet
/petpassive [noexists]
actually I don't know which one will work under all circumstances, but for now add following macro for your own good
AND MY LAST MACRO I USE ALL THE TIME
/castsequence [nopet] reset=3 Call Pet, Revive Pet; [target=pet, dead] [nopet] Revive Pet; [pet, combat] Mend Pet; [pet] Mend Pet(Rank 6)
/stopcasting [pet, target=pet, nodead]
/cast [pet, nocombat] Feed Pet
/use [pet, nocombat] Smoked Talbuk Venison
FAIL PROOF revive (some cases need to pressed twice)
instant heal with best heal in combat,
and out of combat casts cheaper heal and feed with one press
Talbuk Venison have to be changed for type of food your pet eats
Sorry from listing all the tips I could think of I turned it into macro building brainstorm...
hope it was useful XD
