    I would go with Zods, unless you are under the hit cap. Zods has more top end, and a "decent" proc as well.

    copypasta.

    A free additional shot fired? That's like, one of the essential MM talents, but in a freaking bow. How could you not want that?

    go with Zod's the damage is decent and the proc is also quite nice

    Could we get an armory link? It would be helpful if I could see the rest of your gear.

    Without seeing the rest of your gear:

    Zod's has better 'top end' damage, but will suffer compared to any other iLevel 264 ranged weapon with similar damage range because of RNG and player movement during fights.

    Since the proc ONLY ticks off of your autoshots, any encounter where you have to move or target swap will drop the value of the Zod's proc.

    http://www.femaledwarf.com/ is a fairly accurate and easy to use hunter dps simulator. You can use this to check gemming, speccing, gear, etc.
    Bear in mind that Zod's will sim out with a HIGHER dps return on a sim than you will actually see in game due to, again, RNG and movement.

    EDIT:
    To clarify, I believe that Zod's will be better due to damage range than a 251 bow, BUT, it will likely show worse dps than a 258-264 weapon in actual raid situations.

    This. H Njoner w/e is better than Zod's. Generally speaking the higher ilvl the weapon the higher the top/low end damage will be and thus more dps.

    Re: what bow?

    Zod's is better than Njorndar because of the damage.

    IIRC, the ranged weapons go from:

    Njorndar
    Stakethrower
    LK10 Ranged(?)
    Zod
    Heroic Njorndar
    Heroic Stakethrower
    Heroic LK10 Ranged(?)
    Fal'inrush
    Heroic Zod
    Heroic Fal'inrush


    edit: The LK10/LK10Heroic ranged should fit in there as well, but I'm not sure where at.

    Gun off H Bql imo.
    You can tell WoW changed the MMO for good when players started complaining about the amount of time they sink, into a time sink.

    Which wouldn't change the fact that he's correct. Guess he needs to list EVERY weapon available that's better than H Njordnar?

    or to make them sound like like blasters.

    I don't know if they still work, but it should not be hard to test them.
