Think i got almost of dps rotation (thing i didnt knew about 2 months ago), still need some improvements on gear.

I love PvE (raids) from the hardest ones to the easiests .. A do like a lot of PvP love doing BGs and Arena. RP i dont do much but i think its pretty cool if there are a group doing it

I do play a lot .. like 5 hours day or so maybe more, on weekends play like 10.

No.
What are your previous guilds on this server and reasons for leaving them?
My first one was Valiant Storm (friend invited and helped me leveling and teaching me how to play this game), then i was looking for something more to get into raids, thats when i went to Protest coz other friend was there but then there was a confusion poeple leaving and i didnt like the ambient so i left too, then i joined Greek Avatars wich was a really nice guild but leader left and some others too same cause, i got bored got it wasnt the same without the leader, then i went to Rumsey Rumblers but left 2 days after i joined (as recruiter) coz i just had 2 friends there and didnt actually liked some people there. Then i joined Atonement (where i am atm) wich is a really really nice guild, everyone very friendly all good people, but im looking for a guild that do more raids 10 as 25man ones, so i decided to leave my tank there coz i've made a lot of friends already there and leader is really good person, but i kinda need a pro raiding guild for this character so i looked around and saw u guys are a really nice raiding guild and decided to post here and hope to be accepted

How do you find gnomes? a) cute, b) evil or c) tasty
c) TASTY :D
Are you aware that if accepted, your guild master will be a gnome? And no, the previous question has no relevance with this one!
Yes :P

Well you left rumsey since you said we were too organised and now you say you want a hardcore guild bit strange.

[Jaenus]

Just one question, if you had the choice between 2 raids and which one to go too, the first being an ICC25 where you kill the first 8-9 bosses which have been killed often by the guild, or the second night one where you will be taking on a progression boss which will more than likely end in a high repair bill but a unsuccessful night and no boss kill. Well which one would you choose?

[Sötpojke]

dont answer its a trap!

Miriel, the CR and Recruitment Officer should be around tomorow to look over your application.

Logged out in PVP gear, please log out in your proper PVE gear

I saw you ingame earlier on, and noticed you were missing shoulder enchant and headenchant was with resilience as far as I remember. AP enchant on boots as well --> how come you havent gone for agi on boots?

Specs: What I'm guessing is your PVE spec, is to be fair, very very weird and I think you've missed some good talents, and gone for some wrong ones.

Can you explain why you went for Improved Aspect of the Hawk?
How come you haven't gone for Resourcefulness, which lowers your BA CD, which gives you more Explosive Shots?
Why have you specced your pet like you have, and do you think it does a maximum DPS output?

Not even started on SoH rep farm and Ebon Blade on neutral.

Professions are really behind as well, mining on 123 - could go for much better solutions such as JC.

Good luck on your application, our Class representative will be around shortly I'm guessing.

This is the cookie cutter spec for Survival hunters. A few points can be rearranged, but this is the basics.

Best DPS spec there is for your wolf atm.

http://www.mmo-champion.com/class-hunter/ - Check this forum for questions, there are some decent guides in there. Also use elitistjerks.

I'd recommend you go for JC, it's the most beneficial profession atm.

EDIT: For boot enchant:
Icewalker: ONLY if you lack hit
16 agi: Classic pure dps enchant
Cat's Swiftness: Agi + movement speed

I will comment as soon as armory has updated your spec

From a general (not hunter-specific) point of view, you have alot of hit, try to get something better than that crappy mark of supremacy (greatness card is still prety good, alot cheaper these days too). I personally wouldn't reccomend anything but Tuskarr's Vitality or Nitro Boosts as a boot enchant, movement speed buffs are completely crucial in every single dificult fight in ICC. Also, your meta gem appears to be inactive, put a [Nightmare Tear] in whatever non-red socket will give you the largest agi boost.

[Laerel1]

A lot of fights are about movement, either moving out of harmful things or moving towards friends or even into range of the boss

The less time you spend standing in something bad/out of range/not where you are supposed to be, the less time you will be doing DPS

It might seem trivial for a ranged class but I garuntee it will save your life one day

[Isvan]

Every fight in ICC requires you to move as a hunter once or twice, and often a lot. Moving 8% faster means you use up 8% less time moving -> several seconds more DPS. I believe the maths work out as putting Tuskarr's ahead of the AP enchant as long as you move more than 8 seconds per minute. This is pretty certain to happen in most every fight in ICC- not to mention making it easier ont he healers (less ticks of AoE) and keeping you alive (Sindragosa AoE, Icehowl charge, Anub spike chase for example).

Arg. I typed too much and got double ninja'd
