In any event, Imp MS has been brought up again. The last time it was on the discussion table it was largely agreed to be a miserably bad talent. There were, however, a few holdouts who vehemently disagreed but could not provide any real convincing examples of its usefulness. If you're up to the challenge, Lithose, I encourage you to find that discussion. Take a close look at it, then come back here and try to win me over with an argument of logic of why you would dump 4 points in that awful, awful talent.

Oh man I just looked at your armory. You completely skipped Imp Hamstring for Imp MS. You've got your work cut out for you.
I'll make sure to double quote in the future, sorry, was in a rush and wasn't looking.

My spec is designed for a specific team composition with specific strategies, my druid, as you can see, is also not a normal spec. I won't be trying to convince you that improved MS is awesome, because frankly Improved MS is a poor talent. As you know this is mainly because it doesn't provide as much DPS per point as most talents (And other factors, such as not being in range often to use the short CD effectively.) However, in an ER spec it provides more damage than any other talent point for point if you're maxed out on the obvious ones (Two handed spec, Impale ect)...with the following stipulations in mind.

1.) You're counting on never being focused on (On my team, I never am).
2.) Your team set up provides a great deal of control and support.

This spec I only use 3v3, and only because we run Priest/Druid/Warrior, which is a dying team comp after the rogue changes, however, we made it work all the way to 2250 last season. Because the team is also heavy support for the warrior I can also make use of the lower CD on MS, as I am often in range. This isn't possible with other comps, usually, which is another reason why with most compositions improved MS is terrible. The reason why imp HS is dropped is simply because my druid provides a lot of control and me being the only source of damage makes any small gains I can get an improvement. On my other teams I always run a more classic 35/23/3 build.

On that note, I really wish people would read my posts, considering this is the third time I have explained why I took "poor talents".
