Rapid fire worth it?

3. Cast Aimed Shot to spend Lethal Shots procs.

4. Cast Rapid Fire to spend Lethal Shots procs only.

 

Sooo is rapid shot ever worth using? It has never happened to me that i did not have aimed shot coming off cd less than one second when i get a lethal shots proc. I can understand maybe during extended combat it might happen a few times, but overall it feels like ill never use rapid fire. Sorry if this is a stupid qeustion, virgin hunter here (tried all 3 specs, like MM the most. dont tell me switch).

While I have not played much MM so far in BfA, I am surprised that there are not more cases were you get a Lethal Shots proc and can't use Aimed. Rapid Fire is only be used when you get a Lethal Shot proc and cant use Aimed. If you never end up casting Rapid Fire, that is okay. However, certain Azurite traits will move it ahead of Aimed in the priority order. See point 3 on the Azurite trait page.

yeah i know that, but its just that these traits are dogshit and any of thee generic zone traits are better.

what if i get a proc, during movement, will it be worth more then? building on that, is rapid fire even worth using over steady shot during movement?

I'm pretty sure that Rapid Fire has higher priority than Aimed Shot, I don't know where you got that order.

The sims show Rapid Fire being cast with 100% critical hit, so it's top priority for spending Lethal Shots.

Sisco's response was basically the right one. ^^ Steady Shot can be used as well as RF for movement, so it doesn't change anything.
