Seeing your dps in raids, I feel tempted to pick up my huntard, which I already leveled to 85 and see what I can do with it.. Gearing up and DPSing up.

When I get to 85 I'd love a talent tree and macros.  83 at the moment hunters are fun idd

[hubbah]

Id recommend going survival for normals / heroics / 10 mans This is the build i would use

Carefull aim isnt really needed for 5 man's because mobs get under 80% really quick.. but its still a nice dps boost when you use rapid fire / cooldowns at the start.

As for macro's i only use one tbh

/target whitey
/cast misdirection
/w whitney MD on you!
/assist

[Whitey]

I like that macro

I've noticed a nice improvement in dps on heroics since changing from MM to SV and would recommend it to any other new hunters.

Article about the current state of DPS for raiding hunters. The author Frostheim is recognized enough to get this. So reading his columns is advised.

MM will get a nerf in 4.2, but not a big one. SV will get buffed a bit. As hardcore SV hunter, who never played MM, I would say: GO SV! Looking at the numbers, MM is currently the way to go if you do not have important AoE assigments.

@legolei

most sites ( stateofdps / worldoflogs ) prove that MM is the beter spec atm.
But i been in a few 10 man guilds so far and i been beating all the MM hunters by alot.. on all fights so far.
I think it has to do with the imobility of the MM spec, seeing hardcasting AiM is still the way to go.
And MM is really really gear / buff dependend so in 10 man ( without all buffs.. and mostly your lacking some gear do to RNG dropchance ) i personaly would say stick with Surv.

Also surv is alot more " user " friendly if you do the rotation wrong or you mis a tick of ES your dps wont drop like a brick.. if dont finish casts with AiM or you forget to do a chimera shot your dps ( and your serpent dot ) will drop.

Surv for life!

Or you could just watch your agro meter
And why doesn't Hal get a mention or his threat too insane even for your DPS?

[hubbah]

How do you quickly check if you are ranked? Never looked into 'being ranked'
