Yeah I know where you´re coming from and honestly, I wonder the same thing myself sometimes. I can´t really exclude the possibility of a bug but if so it´s really, really difficult to nail those down. It might also be that it´s a legitimate suggestion due to a certain constallation of buffs and debuffs though. The reason for showing Multi-Shot (if Aimed Shot is available too) is most likely that the option to preserve improved steady shots for chimera is turned on. It should never ever suggest arcane shot if you´ve turned it off though. I´ll have a look into that.

But to be perfectly blunt I don´t think I´ll put a whole lot of efford into the addon before Cataclysm because I´ll propably have to rewrite the whole thing anyway.

Understanding that you may not be working much on this AddOn for now...

I am only using the Chimera Shot frame/button and I get the following error (which mainly seems to occur if I am switching targets when the button is up):

Also this error (among possibly others):

Thanks!

I'm looking for an addon that deals with buffs and lets me move my buff and debuff frame with ease and without taking up much space/being to chunky also if would be nice if it let me make it show important buffs like trinket proc tier proc etc so it stands out more that would be nice.

Maybe Satrina Buff Frames? Have you tried that one yet? You can create several Frames and move them easily. You can choose "Whitelist" so that those Frames will only show Buffs/Debuffs you select, or "Blacklist" to have them show everything except the Buffs/Debuffs you choose. Of cause you can change the Size, Fond Timers etc. individualy.

I'd suggest Bison, it's a lot more lightweight, supports ButtonFacade, but it doesn't have whitelist/blacklist. I use Quartz + Quartz_Procs for proc tracking together with NeedToKnow to track innner cooldowns. But don't get me wrong Satrina Buff Frames is also very nice addon, I used it for quite some time.

I recently updated FaceShooter, and it has a few more bells and whistles then the version I was using, but as far as the Arcane Shot notification, and the Multi Shot notifications your getting, I'm not sure. I have had multi shot come up for me during raids recently with the new update, but its usually up for less than a second, and I just ignore it usually. As for switching between specs, I've never had an issue with the addon not showing the best shots for me when I switch specs, now it might be because my main spec is MM, and my second is BM, and there isn't a lot of notifiers for BM, but I'm not sure. I would suggest just try using your own judgment on when to follow FaceShooter's advice on what shot to use next, because ultimately the no addon can really take away from using your own judgement, and knowing what works best for you.

Hope this helps in some little way.

AVR is probably the most dummy-down addon I've ever used.
I thought deadly boss mods was one of those raid addons that really just made it much easier for the average raider by giving you warnings that tell you when to move. AVR takes it even further. The main aspect of AVR, for raiding, is that it puts a circle (usually red) on the ground showing you where to not stand in order to avoid damage.
For example - Rotface - when the big ooze explodes, AVR puts a red circle on the ground at every point at which an explosion will land. You will notice that there will be a ton of red circles overlapping each other at the area where the melee were standing.
Another example - Lich King hard mode - shadow traps are a pain in the butt when you are first learning the encounter. AVR puts a big red circle on the ground where a shadow trap is about to form. It really helps you to see exactly how far you have to move so that you can just stand right next to that red circle and know you won't get hit by the shadow trap.
It's also really nice for Malleable Goo on Putricide.

Another feature of AVR is that you can also draw pictures on your screen and send those pictures to everyone else in your raid that uses AVR.

For example - Blood Princes - you want all your melee to spread out when Prince Valanar casts his explosion (sorry I can't remember the name of it). Well, most guilds have the melee use the stage as the area they can use to spread out, but sometimes it's a real pain knowing who is going where. With AVR, you can draw little circles on the stage, signifying which spots melee can move to, and then assigning those spots to different melee raid members.
In that situation, it's like using purple or white flares, except you don't have to worry about aggroing the boss while putting them there.

Another example of that feature is in Sindragosa's room. You can draw out an area where you want all the ranged to stack up for phase 2. You can draw out the areas where you want ice tombs to be. You can draw a huge penis if you want, but after a while your raid members will get really tired of it.

*Note* This isn't a hunter-specific addon, but I've found it extremely useful as a raider so I thought I'd share it with the EJ hunter community.

If I'm not mistaken, it's a 2-part addon where you need both in order for it to work.
AVR - Addons - Curse
AVR Encounters - Addons - Curse

Keep in mind that this is still pretty buggy. I have this installed, and while it is extremely helpful, the drawings tend to flicker around a lot.

I'm trying to find an add on if it exists, that warns me when there is a buff on a mob that tranq shot can be used to dispell. On certain boss encounters it's obvious when to use. But for pvp and other times not so obvious, it would be nice to have an add on that put up a warning if tranq can dispell. Thanks for any input.

I believe the "Dispel Border" addon will do what you're looking for. It works on a variety of classes so you can customise what it's looking for, including tranquilizing shot. It will then place a highlighted border around the buff icon of anything that is dispellable by the criteria you have picked.

Everything other than a Frenzy that you can tranq shot off is a Magic buff, so you could probably also make a power aura for Magic buffs on hostile targets.

Is there any up to date addon which alerts the raid to a tranq resist?

Does anyone know an addon that emotes in party chat what buff was removed with tranq shot. Zhuntermod no longer works in patch 3.3.5.

Purgeatory

Is there any addon or simple addon modification of common addon (power aura or elks buff bars ie.) which can tell me exactly when the passive regen AotV ticks ? I tried many addons but none of them do that.

Any scrolling combat text add-on should do this (probably the built in combat text as well). I use MiksScrollingBattleText. I don't know of any that do it as a bar.

A heads up: A nice simple cooldown timer for hunters - watcher - has been finally updated. I used this addon to get used to using chimera shot glyph, but it may be very useful to for some players in a raid environment.

I don't suppose there is a macro guru that could set me up with a simple macro to target the Living Inferno and misdirect it to a specified MT? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Obviously replace tankname with the tank you are sending it to. Should work just fine.

ok so i have a question and not sure if i just missed the info somewhere

i am trying to setup the needtoknow addon to show the t10 set bonus but cant find what the set bonus is called or what the internal cooldown would be on it

anyone know where i should look of i missed this info?

There is no internal cooldown, the buffs it gives are Exploit Weakness (2pc) and Stinger (4pc). For future reference this information can easily be found by going to the item on wowhead, Sanctified Ahn'Kahar Blood Hunter's Spaulders - Item - World of Warcraft and selecting the set bonus and the link will provide you with all the information you need on it.

Someone asked above about a tranquilizing shot resist announcer, I use WakeSpams - WoW AddOns - WowAce.com and it works perfectly.

If it was listed could someone please point it out because I must of missed it. I am lookin for a MM mod that will tell me when to recast SrS to increase my damage vs just refreshing it via CS.
