Hey, i've had my hunter at lvl 85 for a while now and I just can't seem to get my dps above 9k (i'm aware that is pitiful). I'm effectively a noob at this as this is my first char and i lvled up fast with RAF. I've been looking through forums and websites etc. for the correct rotation and talents to use and have followed all advice to no avail. Can anybody please suggest what the problem could be?

no enchants
no glyphs
strength bow for warriors
gems are a bit all over the place
got a few pvp pieces not good for pve if your looking for more dps
under hit capped
your chest is leather so you missing out on 5% agility increase =/!!!!

not sure about your spec because ive never played MM in pve and this is just a alt of mine, sorry to be brief wanted to point out some of the problems you have before my dungeon queue popped up lol

suggest you read up on www.noxxic.com about hunters in pve oh and if your a clicker (not sure if you are) then you wont be able to pull as much dps as a keybinder theres also a keybinding guide on noxxic hope i helped a bit :)

Talents: GET - Readiness, Pathing (3 pts), maybe filled out Marked for Death. DITCH - Hunter vs Wild, Imp Serpent Sting, Bestial Discipline, Frenzy

Pet ferocity build http://www.wowhead.com/petcalc#0md00sc00hoko
Decent Marksman build: http://www.wowhead.com/talent#ccZfrGoGRMuroc:kVzaRVM0m
(From this you have 1 pt to spend at leisure, taking out points from Rapid Killing/Marked For Death should be your first choice if you want to swap around)

Don't concern yourself with social stigma over 'clickers'. You can kick !@# regardless and muscle memory holds people back from moving systems or redesigning keybindings.

Again, warcrafthuntersunion.com has numerous easy-to-read guides on gameplay as does http://www.noxxic.com/wow/pve/hunter/marksmanship

"3 empty glyph slots
8 unenchanted items"

Fix those two (^), gem +40 agil for red slots and blue slots I believe - and +20 agil +20 crit for yellow slots.
And secondly, go survival, much better DPS than MM.

Spec SV.


This.

Though MM is not as !@#$ as it was at the start of Cata, its still beaten by survival dps wise.

If he/she isn't looking to raid, there is no need to be in SV. Though SV is the easyer spec of the two.

Hey Raven :)

I'm a clicker myself, and had a hard time coping with the MM spec due to the prioritysystem, I think MM is the most complex of the three specs. Fast decisions don't go well, when having to find the buttons you have to click.
So I did around 7-8K dps in heroics...not fun at all :(
I respecced to BM, and doubled my dps :)
I beileve BM it's the most forgiving tree if your a casual player like me.
Second: MACROS! They're REALLY helpful to us clickers, since clicking cannot replace the mashing of buttons :)
Good luck, happy hunting!
