Yes indeed this isn't a hardcore theory crafting thread but there is a lot of it that this thread is based on
I'm not seeing this, femaledwarf is as usual giving inflated weights for haste due to me nearing a plateau however crit is almost 4 times lower in priority compared to agility for me (agility worth 3.193 and crit at 0.794)
So no, i doubt gemming pure crit would ever be the way to go, blizzard have made it clear from cataclysm onwards that primary stats are always going to more desirable than secondary ones.
I'm not sure what kind of gear you have to get this kind of result, currently I'm at ilevel 364 pretty much best possible gear before rep rewards, lucky drops from world bosses and BMAH.
Isn't that what's in the guide already ? Although the part about weapon might be prudent to add, it might not be immediately obvious to a new hunter that the weapon is extremely important.
ill try testing this today once my server queue lets me in. Gut feeling tells me that it should be ok.
I wasn't aware stampede was affected by haste, since our normal pets aren't affected by RF =S. I also disenchanted my windswept pages last night like an idiot so i can't test with proc -_-.
After my testing with stampede in the other thread i do agree it should be a bit higher on priority list, HOWEVER I feel like it should be saved to be used in conjunction with periods of large AP/crit/possibly haste boosts as it is a 5 minute cooldown which is why i put it where it is on the current priority.
Agreed, I haven't done much dabbling with DB as I've pretty much stuck with toth for hc running since release. You also have to remember that CoS refreshes our SrS which means overall you will lose DPS if you have to manually refresh it and have to delay ES/BA to do so.
DB after MoC seems like a good idea since the focus return is higher and will help recovery after dumping 60 focus, this is again due to my lack of experience with it from not using it :P.
Good point, this will apply to everyone this early in the expansion really.
Thanks for pointing out some great things, people like you are what makes this guide useful for everyone.
