Been doing a lot of macro research an asking all the hunters I know an trust and came across: #showtooltip Steady Shot /cast !Auto shot /castsequence reset=3/combat Arcane Shot, Steady Shot, Auto Shot, Steady Shot, Auto Shot, Steady Shot, Auto Shot /cast [target=pet, dead,noexists] null[target=pettarget, exists] Kill Command, Claw /cast !auto shot and for some reason I have been able to hit an sustain for a short period of time 1800-2k + dps. My question is how can that macro be that much better then some of the others on here that I have seen? |

it's a matter of spec. BM spec hunters should use /cast !auto /cast steady Everyone else should use a variation of the macro you're using. which is referred to as the 1:1.x macro --

Except that Watz is a BM hunter. Here's the thing that often gets overlooked. A 1:1.x rotation macro works even BETTER for BM than it does for the other specs within certain limitations. Mostly this is based on your haste and weapon speed though, because if your adjusted weapon speed is faster than a certain point, the extra damage from the arcane shot is going to get negated by the clipping it will cause. Your weapon speed according to the armory is 1.97, which might just be slow enough to work a 1:1.x without trouble. --

Cool, I've recently switched to survival, and was wondering if there was a macro I could try out. As beast I was still using the two part macro that Raf posted awhile back that bypassed the KC bug. Will I have to break this new macro into two parts to bypass the bug as survival? or did they fix it when I wasn't looking? | |

They didn't fix it. I havn't tried running the split macro with my hunter macro. That's a good idea, though.

They claimed they fixed a UI lock problem when using instant abilities in certain situations but I just had the bug occur to me once this last weekend. Having said that, it looks like the bug is occurring far less often. So even though they didn't squash the cause, they lessened it to some extent. --
