I can not see the real use of a macro like that because it removes the choice to priorities your shots, also we now have many new abilities with cd's that does not always line up. I also see a huge posibilty that you will focus csp very much with that macro.

my main goal is to use cobra shot to renew ss and arcane shot with kill command when its up. I am about to make other macros for other abilities, but id like to focus on this one. Thanks!

Cobra shot does not renew but renew SrS. But to comment further on your macro you will be useing CS to much an will suffer in your dps because of loss of arcane shots

Run a SimC to be sure.But in my opinion SW is better even without 4p T14.

Due to the random nature of Invigoration procs, you are guaranteed to cap Focus with any macro that is normally Focus-neutral. A macroed rotation will always be inferior DPS compared to intelligent manual shot selection.

i do agree, but this doesnt mean that ill only spam this macro.If im focus capped ill do some AS's before getting back to my macro. Do you suggest removing one CS from the two in a row in the macro?

I don't know about anyone else here but I feel HotW is stronger in general than NV. Not for all fights but for the majority.

They're saying don't use them. Period. It's inferior DPS, and it'll only needlessly complicate your rotation which, as they've said twice already, is no longer macro-central. It's priority based.

thanks for explaining it to me! owe you one

Thanks for all you have done man.

Please edit the link in the OP to http://www.femaldwarf .com This now links to porn/malware sites. The intended link Zeherah's Hunter DPS Analyzer [with e] still works correctly.

at lower levels of spirit, Glyph of Illumination results in better mana regen; at higher levels of spirit, Spirit becomes better again

I quickly modified the spreadsheet for level 90 and it looks like in full 463 gear, with spirit food and flask, you should already be above the breakpoint where Spirit becomes better than the Glyph (assuming average usage e.g. ~9 Shocks-per-minute). It is probably not worth using the glyph until you have the T14-4pc and at least some heroic gear. If I can find some time this weekend, I'll try to put together a full set of heroic gear and see how the numbers compare (though I suspect it still won't be worth it, unless we end up with a significant amount of crit and/or low gains in spirit going from normal to heroic gear).

If anything I've written seems wrong, please don't hesitate to correct me.

Anything seems right and i thank u alot. x)

Whoops- thanks for letting me know, that's now fixed.
