    At lower levels all you need is arcane shot, multishot and kill command.. I haven't had to use anything else all the way up to 85

    No Kill Shot? No Steady Shot? No Misdirection? No Disengage? I use all of these all the time, but I assume there is no way to bundle them together somehow. I am doing dungeons, alone, with my 3 hunters, probably a bit harder than doing quests.

    After googling a lot, I have found a few good macros, but I am looking for a way to get Kill Shot in somewhere.

    Code:
    /cast Revive Pet
    /cast Call Pet 1
    /cast Mend Pet
    /petattack
    /petassist
    /script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
    Code:
    /petattack
    /cast Bestial Wrath
    /cast Kill Command
    /script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
    Code:
    #showtooltip
    /cast [target=focus,exists,nodead] Misdirection; [target=pet,exists,nodead] Misdirection
    Code:
    #showtooltip Counter Shot
    /stopcasting
    /stopcasting
    /cast [@mouseover,harm][harm] Counter Shot

    I always just had /cast kill shot at the end of all my macros. Seemed to work just fine.

    I've rarely used kill shot, mend pet and occasionally (in tougher instances) feign death but I have found that most things don't survive long enough for the other stuff to be needed..
    For example... Today I just dinged 85, which was achieved on my second run of lost city of the Tol'vir. In the instance all the non bosses where killed by multi shot spam. Bosses by arcane shot and kill command. I admit that I had to also use stampede on the final boss, I think I only had to Rez a pet once.. (Pets are.. Dog, Bear, Raptor, Boar and Dragonhawk, which covers most buffs).
    I could probably have cast kill shot as well, but with the spirt link healing, I don't really need it.

    Now I know that late on misdirection and disengage are needed, but I have not had the call to use them (and I've run most of the instances up to 85).

    I have seen most of the hunter macros, tried a few, but at the end of the day, I spam 3-4 buttons.. It seems to work ok for me..
    You apparently multibox 5 Hunters, I see how that would be a lot easier. I only multibox 3 of them. I did a few runs in BRD and my pets kept dying and a few times I actually died myself. Some of the large packs of humanoids were really tough even though I spammed Multi-Shot, Beastial Wrath and Kill Command. If I had 5 Hunters I imagine I would have no problem though.

    Ill try this and see how it works, ty.

    Also. Do you guys use mouse to enable Aspects, to Mount up and such? What annoys me a little bit is that I need to set up hotkeys and stuff on the menus for my mouse to work. Maybe mouse repeater is what im looking for, I should probably research this.

    Edit: Just tried a macro like /cast Arcane Shot; /cast Kill Shot but Kill Shot is never used even though it is avilable, just keeps auto shooting. Maybe I need to add something to the macro for it to work.

    Don't get discouraged!

    I always just used the default bindings for aspects (ctrl f1 - f5)
    For mounting I've used (shift ~) for land mounts and (ctrl ~) for air mounts

    For your kill shot, I've found that if you try and put a fall through instant cast behind another instant cast it won't work. Looking through my hunter macros it actually looks like I just used,

    Code:
    /stopcasting
    /cast kill shot
    and spammed it when things got into kill shot range. I keybound this to Q because it's right there. Infact ALL off my executes are Q. :P

    Misdirection I can't explain.
    Kill shot is in there (maybe edited).
    Steady Shot is MM. Cobra Shot is BM (unless you talent Focusing Shot).
    Now playing: WoW (Garona)
