From the WWS, you're way under-utilizing multishot, considering you have 3/3 barrage. Approx. 10% of my damage is from multishot.

From your gear, you should get the BoE rings aforementioned, and...

Being survival doesn't necessarily mean a crippled personal dps. Now, I can't put out 1500 as survival, but I can stay competitive, in the 900-1300 range, depending on the fight. Given sufficient...

For the bold/idle time, I often opt using KC as filler. I raid with around 200ms of latency, so that idle period for me is rather short most of the time. While KC isn't on GCD, it still has a very...

Personally as survival, I would root against anything with +haste proc. I'm sure it's possible to manage it if you have great latency and a fast reaction time, but more often than not, unexpected...

By diminished returns, it means that as either your crit or ap gets significantly higher than the other, say 3k ranged AP and 20% crit, AP would not scale as well as crit if you had the choice (like...

What I found comfortable doing is make a steady/auto shot macro, spam it, and manually fit in arcane/multi/KC. i usually raid with around 200ms ping, so depend on what's not on cooldown and how much...

Caster groups love FI, which stacks on top of everything. EW + imp hunter mark for a melee-heavy raid setup is HUGE. Not so much utility, but we do bring some nice buffs to the raid; we just don't...

Too simplistic, because if you are a BM hunter above 1.8 (i think that's what it is!) attack speed, haste proc would still increase your dps.

To be a little more selfish and casual unfriendly, I'm glad that hunters have their own mechanism that's completely different than any other class out there.

Being (mainly) a survival hunter (0/21/30) spec before BC, I was quite disappointed with the Agi:AP nerf and hopped on the bandwagon of marksmanship when I first hit lvl 70. I frequent the US Hunter...

Well, the OP asked "if it would be better for me to get +AP and Crit rating gems instead," so I responded accordingly.

Even comparing 1 agi vs. 2 ap, 1 agi scales the best in the range where the...

2x 8 agility gems give you 16 rap and 8.84 crit rating (16/40=0.4%crit, 0.4*22.1=8.84).
1x 16 attack power and 1x 8 crit gems give you 16 rap and 8 crit.

If your main focus is PVE, also keep in mind...

Sidetracking here, but keep in mind that the SWS DPS option does not include pet damage (afaik). As mentioned in my last post, SWS was showing me doing 675, but WWS somehow showed me doing 960 with...

Having just specced to 41/20 for raiding, I'd have to say that Chain Healing is our pets' best friend at the moment, even more effective than shadow priests at times.
