    Hunter DPS in Cata

    I know this is a little late, but please bear with me. I saw a thread from Patch 4.2 where a hunter had proved (via screenshots) that he was doing 35k DPS at ilevel 340 on a single-target instance boss fight that lasted well over a minute. How was this possible?

    I was doing 100k on Mannoroth when people were bad.

    I slept through a Madness LFR (literally, I dozed off and people had moved on to the next target) and managed 70k.

    It really depends on the target. Dummy? Ultraxion? Mannoroth?

    You'd need to show us the screenshots to tell you. MM has the 100% crit burn phase of Aimed > Steady > Steady until the boss was at 90%, so they could have easily bursted it then called pet and feigned death and their recount would have stayed at whatever DPS was shown when he stopped attacking.

    Also there was a bug that allowed you to tame a silithid in AQ with a buff that increased haste (and dmg?) resulting in crazy dps

    You missed the part that it was at 340 ilvl (blue 5man heroic gear was 346).

    Now was this before or AFTER the survival nerf of early cata? Because hunters had mad high flat damage numbers in a few of our spells at the beginning, plus the flat damage boosts from hunter's mark and AotH
