One thing after just checking it out fast:

Your reforging is strange, pls explain why you reforge to crit....I thought hunters was hit (to cap)-->Haste/mastery-->crit?

Actually Trulz, for Marskman when your at the hit cap you should reforge all following hit and mastery into a balance of crit and haste,unless you were switching back to SV from time to time, in which case you would reforge differently, however he has way too much crit at the moment and not enough haste, this certainly needs to be balanced out.


Otherwise the app seems pretty much like you wrote it in 5mins, simple answers, no details given, no reason why you left your last guilds.

Frankly I would like to see more substance before even taking this app seriosuly.

I do apologise if my application is not up to standard, but i did indeed put effort into it.

I do play alot out of raiding. My hunter is my main, but i do have a resto druid and a blood Dk ofcourse my hunter is priority!
So I do play alot and will be online for when you need me.

Every hunter will tell you that a MM hunter is nothing without crit.

Agility > 8% Ranged Hit > Crit => Haste => Mastery

My hit cap is a perfect 8% putting everyother point to good use and is not being wasted.
I do not play survival. I have both MM specs for PVE and PVP.
I spend alot of time reading about my class and every site I read about a MM hunter 4.2 tells me this exact same reforge stat.


Crit
Increases the chance for all of your damage sources to critically hit for 200%+ more damage. This is the most effective secondary stat once you are at 8% ranged hit.

Haste
Decreases cast time for abilities such as Steady Shot, causes you to shoot faster, and increases focus regeneration speeds.

Mastery
Grants a chance for your ranged attacks to also instantly fire an additional ranged shot. This is mostly effective in AoE encounters where it can proc off of Multi-Shot.

I am sure that my reforges are perfect according to this

The only guild i was previously raidng with was Enforcers. It was a good guild for me when we started raiding FL as a guild, but things after awhile things were not the same so I left.I Did do a full clear with Horde Spartans, but I could not understand there language, but they did indeed help me with my class. My curren HC progress is 1/7, but i have experience in all the fights exept RagnarosHC.

I hope i have cleared up everything and I really do apologise if i put together a bad application.

Good luck with your application.
Going to school means you are of...
A. 1-58 lvl zone
B. 58-70 lvl zone
C. 70-80 lvl zone
D. 80-85 lvl zone

Yes crit is good for marksman, but as you progress into firelands it is worthwhile to balance with haste so you can use Aimed Shot as your focus dump, with raid buffs and trinket procs you average haste level needs to be around 12.93% pushing the guidline cast time of Aime Shot down to 1.8 (1235 being the soft cap)

This is a dps increase but requires an old skool style of play where you are casting rather than moving and shooting.


We have a number of people in the guild who push to max every little bit of DPS they can, this includes stepping away from the average builds that every hunter in the world uses because they are easy to a more technicaly challenging build for that little more DPS.


We are not saying you are wrong, we just want to know why you would settle for average instead of the best, and what your thoughts are...


so with that in mind can you give me your thoughts on the following marksman builds:

Haste cap build
Mastery Build
Crit build

I have tried all those builds. I tried the haste build a few times but i have never been able to get my aimed shot cast time to 1.8 secs because if i could i would definitly be useing it although i could make a few changes and fit in a new rotation.

At the moment with my gear level it will really be a bad idea for me to go for a haste build. with alot of heroic gear it will increase dps and with the two best hunter trinkets hungerer and matrix restabilizer a haste build will be good. you will also have more agility then from you heroic gear to sacrifice crit into without it making a loss to your dps. with all this you will have your 1.8 sec aimed shot cast time. Also if you cant get 2200 haste it is a waste for a hunter to go for the haste build.

Good answer, took a while to get it out of you but good all the same

+1 fro coming up with the answers.

It's all about min/maxing your character doing your own math and seeing what works out best to get every last point of damage, providing you don't stray to far away from the mark were it becomes detrimental to your build.

there may be others who want to ask you some questions but i think your worth a trial.
