The latest guide update addresses this. The most important thing is using Double Tap on cooldown. Careful Aim is not considered for Double Tap usage.

SS-tier? seriously?

Hi,

Are the soft caps for our stats listed anywhere at all? I'd be interested in knowing at what % haste hits a soft cap, or maybe even crit, for general knowledge.

There are no soft caps for any stats in World of Warcraft that are worth reaching anymore. Or if there are (for other specs/classes), I do not know about them. Hunter has none of them for any spec.

Hello! I have question regarding mythic+ conduits - Spirit attunement or deadly chain is actually better to use?

Hey, you should be picking Spirit Attunement for most Mythic+, but for super heavy AoE/Fortified high keys, you can pick Deadly Chain for the AOE boost (but less burst). But be prepared for less single-target DPS in that build.

No mention of Shadowcore Oil under the consumable section. 

They are cheap, persist for an hour and through death, and a steady source of increased DPS... apparently procs 6x per minute for extra shadow damage and can be combined with the existing weapon enchants.

Its not a huge boost, but free damage is still free damage.

Serpentstalker's Trickery has changed.  It only works on the primary target.  It's no longer triggering off multi-target Aimed Shots.

You can still multidot by casting Aimed Shot on multiple targets, which is what the guide is referring to.

Aneri's Personal CC Tracker helps you track the duration of your  Freezing Trap on a target, even if you are not targeting it right now

I wasn't able to get this weak aura working, seems like the code is too old:

"Data for 'Personal CC Tracker (multi-dynamic) DG' is too old, can't modernize"

So I went with Freezing Trap tracker (duration and CD, sound when broken) instead.  Thanks for the excellent guide!

It would be nice to see the BiS page updated to include raid gear rather than just instance loot as it was last updated nearly a month ago.

I will find an alternative.

question about the BiS list- the raid wep listed, is that kyrian only? (was trying to find it on wowhead) and if so, why put up the kyrain one when night fae is the most common (and i think recommended) covenant?

Sorry for getting back to you slowly.

I'll fix the guide to list the different Covenants' weapons to help this confusion.

Just a heads up in the anima power section necrotic venom links to a mob ability not the anima power https://www.wowhead.com/spell=331192/necrotic-venom

Hey, Pawn is obsoleted by Raidbots Top Gear, there is no reason to use the addon (in fact it can be counterproductive in many cases) so we do not supply Pawn strings for it. Sorry.

Oh alright thanks !

Thanks for the guide.

Some parts of it are still out of date and contain old info, like the Spell Summary section which wrongly describes many talent abilities.

Hello, 

first of all thank you for continually updating this guide.

id like to ask about the secondary stat weighs. Ive noticed that between mastery and versatility that The % showed in the char tab can be misleading. 
 

The mastery % refers to the extra ranged gained. Not the % damage gained on ranged abilities. The damage gain is about half at 12 and 6% (well 6.90). Considering that if i go naked its a 20% flat damage increase. 
 

when i compare this to my vers. Where i have over 100 less vers. It shows 0.03% more damage than what my mastery gives me. 
 

is there a math formula for how much damage we get for say 100 mast/vers? 
 

i wonder why we would prio mastery when it appears that vers give us more % damage, while weighting It as a few more yard vs % damage reduction?

It takes 40 Versatility to increase your damage by 1%, but only 25 Mastery to increase your damage by the same amount. Versatility covers EVERYTHING, while Mastery only covers your abilities however, but this still comes out in Mastery's favour.
