The "Fix my DPS" Thread!

[Deleted]

You know it's pretty badass to see you do that while all your abilities are scattered out and in no where perfect placement as to where they would be if you did click. I'm curious to see just how good you'd be at it if you did have those abilities all placed perfectly for clicking lol. On a side note, is the AzorUI in your tag a complete version or your UI? Or do you need to install extra addons and whatnot? Just trying to maximise my DPS and class and I figured a good way to start would be to use the same UI as a #1 hunter.

[Azortharion]

It is a full version of my UI (after I update it which I'll do now), yeah.

I don't think you should get my UI just because I use it, though, UI's are pretty personal, this works for me, might not work for you, but if you like it, feel free, just gimme a few to update it, will post edit here when it's done.

EDIT: Done.

Well there's a lot of different UI's out there and I've tried most of them, sadly none of them seem to work for me but I like how your abilities are almost in the middle of the screen ,means I won't be as curious as to look all the way down to see when things are coming off of cooldown. Downloading now, thanks for the updated version. Quick question, I was watching your video of #1 parse on Garrosh and saw you were using a Serpent, any reason for this or do you just like that pet? I personally find myself using a Spirit Beast more often than not, which also helps alittle with self heals.

[Azortharion]

No particular reason, we have all buffs so I just used that, didn't think of using a Spirit Beast /shrug.

I ve gone back to survival, i just went crazy doing immerseus O.o my pet despawned 6 times cuz of blinkstrike and me being forced to stand pretty far away <: is it even possible to not fuck that shit up as bm when u r not really close to the boss? <:

Erh, well, then you're screwed. You can just ask to be one of the closer people, though.. Problem solved if your raid leaders aren't stubborn.

[Deleted]

no, cant really put melee to the back, no bm than for me, the reforge for just 1 boss is kinda stupid <:

[Azortharion]

Well it'll fuck you up as Survival too.. That tac is dumb anyway, don't get it.

You must have other ranged dps/healers who could move further back. You don't have to be in melee range, just slightly behind them. It's losing your guild quite a bit of raid dps in 10 man I assume you are doing. Your raid leader shouldn't have you at the back if other classes can be there instead and perform optimally.

Wait you actually get puddles on immerseus now? O_O

Hey Azortharion, if you have some spare time on your hands think you could check out a couple of my logs? Tell me where I'm going wrong, what I could be doing better? Or if it's only the lack of KC and Beast Cleave uptime, which I worked on tonight with Garrosh, trying to keep a better track of both of them. Currently Trial in a really good guild and trying to do better so I get core raider. Any advice would be awesome and greatly appreciated.

Until you have to target switch, where clicking a nameplate is by far the only way to do it effectively. Then your clicking definitely gets in the way. Maybe single target you can tunnel well enough to make clicking semi-okay..but yeah.

I have 2 little questions:

/petattack in a macro where you spam it a lot has been known to reset pet swing timers.

What about macroing "/petattack [@pettarget,noexists]" in most of the spells? This should not reset the swing timers, right?
I used this for month, at least for non bm speccs, i hope i'm not wrong.
In case anyone starts wondering, i have /petattack bound separately, so i can switch my pet to another target if necessary.

The second question is about bm: How many targets are required in aoe situations so that keeping up beast cleave is more important than using kill command and/or kill shot on cooldown?

Sorry about that, I figured copy and pasting them would work but apparently it doesn't copy the whole link, as you can probably tell I'm new to these forums.

These are pretty recent fights, I seem to do okay on single target fights, though I could be doing alot better in my opinion, but when it comes to multitarget or AOE fights I just fall completely behind.

Another thing I've been curious about are Macros, do you guys use macros for say Rapid Fire, Synapse Spring, Blood Fury [If Orc], those kind of things. I currently have a few of those macro'd into my Bestial Wrath and at the end of it I added in Kill Command, so on my opener I just press the one button and everything goes off from the pet standpoint. Does this sound like a good idea to you guys? Or would you suggest staying away from complicated macros? Just curious as to how the more experienced Hunters are doing it, thanks.

[Azortharion]

I haven't ever lost any attacks spamming /petattack (comparing # of pet autos to other hunters on same fight length at least) with a fancy script (20 times a second) in my Kill Command.

I don't use macros for racials/etc (berserking macrod to Stampede), Synapse Spring macroed to everything, Lifeblood macroed to everything, Rapid Fire has a seperate macro because I sometimes wanna save it but it's nothing special.

I got a "Stampede one-shot" macro thing that pops all cooldowns because there's no reason not to.
