Survival Hunter question

Recommended Posts

Hello, this is actually more of a question regarding AMR's optimization rather than about the spec itself. I was looking at AMR just to see what sorts of gems it recommends for my gear and it has been throwing pure agi gems left and right. I have read just about everywhere that you should avoid pure gems like that and go for hybrids instead. So I am totally confused. Should I be going for pure agi gems (since agility adds to crit) or would I be better off going with hybrids in my red/prismatic sockets instead?

Agi is (almost) always > secondary stats. So in any red sockets you definitely would want to use pure Agi gems. Check out the guide for SV here on Icy Veins and you'll see why.

Technically you have to use an actual character sim rather than an approximation which AMR is. So FemaleDwarf is your best bet.

 

That said AMR is "generally" right and so trusting it wont lose you too much dps even if it isn't quite right.

 

The majority of your set bonuses I would guess aren't worth the loss in Agility.

 

For me, Agility = 6.2dps while crit = 2.45 dps. So on a 1:2 relative ratio, agility is still better than 2 points of crit (the best secondary stat for my survival spec.)

 

You can use FemaleDwarf to find out your own values and then adjust AMR to compensate, and it will optimise your chara using the newly imported data.

      I want to make sure I understand something correctly.
      From the guide:
      "Cast  Serpent Sting to consume  Viper's Venom procs when the DoT is about to expire. Without  Viper's Venom, you should only refresh  Serpent Sting when  Coordinated Assault is not active."
      I take this to mean that sometimes we just let the Viper's Venom proc expire. It only lasts 6 seconds and the Serpent Sting dot is 12 seconds, so if we get a proc shortly after applying Serpent Sting, we'll be outside the pandemic window when the proc expires. It seems like outside of Coordinated Assault periods we can almost ignore Viper's Venom because we're only refreshing the dot within the pandemic window anyway. Is that right?

      Hello everyone ! ?
      I recently return to BFA and i have a question about the hunter BM rotation. 
      My concern is about refresh Frenzy and cast "Kill command" on cooldown. Indeed, many times i have to face the dilemma to choose either loose my stacks of Freenzy or delay "Kill command".
      So is it worth to slighly delay "Kill command" in order to refresh Frenzy ?
      Sorry for my approximative english !
