Hey peeps,

This weeks brutallus has us puzzled. Across the board physical dps'ers were seeing lower crit rates than expected and casters reporting higher resist rates. We had around 8 tries or so before killing him (healer hiccups) but did get him in the end with 4 seconds to spare (we've been killing him for 6 weeks, so he is not new to us).

We don't normally use WWS so i'm afraid i can't provide one. However, i'm a frequent recount rider, and among all the tries and kill i was down 5-13% on expected crit rate (not a single try with a crit fluctuation above expected) which seems more than just random. I did write down my recount numbers for the kill as well as the raidbuffed stats i was running with:

Hunter, survival, surefooted 3/3 (3% hit)
1197agility
3018ap
41.28% crit
83 hit (with surefooted thats 12 hit rating short of the cap)
441 armor ignore
78 passive haste (utilizing 2:1/3:2/1:1 rotations - see survival thread page 63+ if interested)

Steady shot
Hit: 113, 1055 average
Crit: 69, 2519 average (37,9%)
Miss: 0

Auto shot
Hit: 77, 1023 average
Crit: 39, 2390 average (33,6%)
Miss: 2

Arcane shot
Hit: 0
Crit: 2, 2171 average
Miss: 0

Multi shot
Hit: 3, 993 average
Crit: 0
Miss: 0

Aimed shot
Hit: 1, 1146 damage
Crit: 0
Miss: 0

Average dps in fight: 1602,4
Total damage done: 580k
Fight duration: 5:56

Group setup:
No beneficial classes except SP for mana
2 haste pots used

Now, on the kill i had about the highest crit rates of all the tries. And those are still a good deal below the expected average. If it had only been that try and kill i wouldnt have thought it funny. But seeing the same pattern (to a worse extent) on all the tries as well as others seeing missing critrates, well.

Now, as Lactose discovered in Mount Hyjal (banshee debuff) hunters run on a 2 roll system rather than a 1 roll system as previously believed. But even so, seeing only 2 misses total (0.6% misses) on the fight (and +/- similar on the tries), the missing hit rating towards the cap cannot account for the crit discrepancies as i see it.

Damage on Kalecgos and Felmyst seemed normal.

So, anyone else experiencing weird result on this resets Brutallus??

Edit:
Forgot to mention that 1600dps is the lowest dps i've had on a brutallus kill since shifting to the /cast /cast setup (which i have been using since second kill) which provides me with 1700-1840ish dps normally in similar setups (and should be higher if my computer didnt have mad fps lag). Furthermore i have just aquired Golden Bow of Quel'Thalas from twins and starstalker legguards some weeks ago, so by all means my dps should be at least equal to expected minimum (1700) or higher.
