Namour

I raided with Shoults in Monolith and then in Fully Torqued, the 10 man group that continued for a period of time after Monolith collapsed. He is an outstanding player, always a key figure in the 25 man group whether healing on his pally as he did for much of the time in Mono, or later dps'ing on his hunter. He has a large stable of alts of all classes, and so possesses that deep understanding of the synergy of different classes and how to use his current toon to its best advantage. He has superb raid awareness, maintains his focus very well during the hectic moments, and is an asset to any raid team. He and Stridur would make a bad ass hunting team.

Hello Ajik, thanks for your application! For reforging, I like to use the ingame addon Reforge Lite. It allows you to set your own stat weights, and correctly reflects all upgraded gear, etc. It also has default settings for each spec and class. Once you load the addon from Curse, you simply go to the reforger. When you open a dialogue with the NPC, the interface for the addon pops up. You can see a summary of the suggested reforge in your stat box. You can then play around with stat weights and see how it changes the outcomes. When you are ready to do the reforge, you press one button and every piece of gear is reforged according the solution. Very easy to play around. As for Mr Robot's advice, it is notoriously bad for hunters. His take on hit cap simply is not supported by the math. If it were a net gain to be slightly below the cap, every hunter who does the math (which is most of the raiders in end game hardcore progression guilds) would all be following this approach. None do...

Welcome Shek!

Welcome to the guild, Fix!

ooh, that is good to know! I have had a few amazing Patron-inspired evenings...the buckets of silver margaritas on the eve of my 40th come to mind (the day before a meal at the French Laudry...that was a rough morning)

Is this a bad thing? Or, would you like some help on your problem sets

Thanks, Elysee - that is very gracious of you! I certainly wish you the same.

Hi Ashin- Thank you for the opportunity to make this work. Signed the charter, have downloaded the points addon and have been reviewing the strats this weekend (and will continue to do so). This week's availbility (will repost in "weeks outlook" as well) Tues: available w/o interuption Wed: available w/o interuption Thursday: 8:30 server pick up daughter (meaning unavailable 8:15-8:45 server)

I read, understood, and happily sign my agreement with the code of conduct.

That makes sense. Thank you for clarifying.

We haz controversy!?! Please eludicate if you might...

I am not sure if hunters have such a buff...

Great idea!

Moving this discussion over to my recruitment thread so I don't confuse things on Elycee's... Just looked over the logs I posted for a 10 man H Vizier kill and looked more carefully for what you were describing (http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/rt-f0ntje2vw00e1cmn/xe/?s=8260&e=8732&x=spell+%3D+%22Kill+Command%22%0D%0AOR+spell+%3D+%22Bestial+Wrath%22). I noticed at least 2x where what you are describing occurred. Also see a number of times it worked fine. I think it is debatable whether the simplicity of one key press for 2 actions compensates for the minor damage loss (on non crits, looks like the different is about 20-30k damage). From a true max min standpoint, better to separate. From the realities of my reactions times as a human, I am not so sure I would actually do better. I do appreciate knowing about the trade-off, though. Thank you for pointing that out!
