Hellfire Assult:

• Barrage + AMoC on this fight, outside of the burn on the initial miniboss, nothing lives long enough to warrent taking stampede.

Iron Reaver:

• Aim to hit the bombs that are furthest away from the raid, as with ST up you will be able to hit them earlier.
• Stampede + GT
• You can deterrence through Barrage without taking any damage.

Gorefiend:

• Save your third RF and potion for the second Feast of Souls, as it lines up with stampede as well for incredible burst.

The best resource for this is Azor and Niix's Hunter Guide, it goes into full detail on the rotation priority and opener.  The pre-pot is generally used at ~1-2s left on the pull timer.

Is AMoC a DPS gain on Mannoroth Heroic? Or damage on the boss from Stampede on later phases is more important?

I'm going to say no, it's not worth using AMoC on Mannoroth, especially on Heroic and Normal.  AMoC has to be up for 8-10s before it resets, and you have to be able to reset it consistently for it to be better than Stampede.  Not to mention that if you start on a different Summoner you can stampede it and then it will be back up for Hero + ring in p4.

Yeah, pretty much what I figured. Resetting AMoC almost reliably isn't hard with Time-to-Die addon which I borrowed from Azor, but it's still an extra complexity for an uncertain benefit.
