That's the uptime for having at least one stack of Frenzy. I want to pull out Frenzyx1, Frenzyx2, etc. See how long people are taking to build Frenzy, how long they're holding onto Frenzyx5, etc.

would be good to see if we can see this to finally get some decisions.

And that's the thing, in that log, of his 5 BWs, only one was under a full 5 stack of Frenzy. The first two are expected not to be, but he's popping FF after BW with a 5 stack, and 2 of the next 3 aren't at 5 stacks by the time he's popping BW again. That has to go into the factor of the benefit of FF by accounting for potential lost stacks of Frenzy on the next BW.
doing raid tonight I found that always using just after BW ment it was always up for the next one.
I bet yall like 10 dollars that Focus Fire won't be in the game anymore by the time this expansion is over.
So, honestly is that a big DPS loss to not use FF? I play SV since Cata and I've tried BM here and there in MOP but since it has more buttons to press I tend to forget about BM CD's.
Howl to the stars wishing I could be one....
Wouldn't be surprised by this, but I am not going take you up on it.. I'd maybe reword it though, I don't think it'll be as-it-is by the final patch of this expansion (I don't mean a % change of the effect, rather it'll be overhauled somehow)... all that is assuming you're not right in that it is removed, which like I said, I am not willing to bet against :P

Actually simulating in FD makes a difference. For me its a bit more then 3% dps. So with a nice nice ~500ilvl gear its more then 3k dps loos to not use focus fire on single target fight. (But its only a simulation, so its not a reliable as a real raid environment) But im still courious how we should deal with FF on fight like feng or windlord with multiple adds phase? Should we pop it up just before adds to get a bit more of a multishots or should we not use it for a better beast cleaves?
I normally use a focus fire as long as its at least 35 seconds till my next bestial wrath cooldown. That means i'm normally but not always back at 5 stacks of frenzy before bestial wrath is available again.... Normally I just use it immediately after bestial wrath ends (apart from at the start where i'm using readiness to use 2 bestial wraths back to back).

I could imagine it being reworked so that it is completely different to what it is now but I imagine there will still be a hunter ability named focus fire.
Look at disengage now compared to what it used to be. It used to be a melee strike that slightly reduced your threat like a rogues feint. Now it's an ability that makes you fly through the air. Completely different ability but the same name. There are 1 or 2 other hunter abilties that are totally different to their original design although I can't think of them off the top of my head.
