pre-ICC) gear levels the old 53/11/7 will probably be better for you, but as your gear improves the Marksmanship talents start to pull ahead of the Survival ones. We are still the lowest damage spec in absolute terms, but we are at near-parity with Survivors now, and capable of doing far more than the required DPS to complete ICC encounters.įollow me through for the full details… The Specĥ3/14/4 is the Elitist Jerks recommended raiding spec for Beastmasters currently. If Survival is raid viable, so is Beastmastery. Naturally Marksmanship is a clear 1500 DPS better than both, but that’s not the point… Why is this number significant? According to calculations from Shandara’s DPS Spreadsheet it is the difference between the theoretical maximum DPS that a Survival hunter can put out and the theoretical maximum from a Beastmastery hunter – 13935 to 13806. I gained double this amount of DPS when I upgraded my bow – to the 10-man version, mind you, not even 25.
That is less than the difference between a Cat and a Wolf when fully raid buffed.
UPDATE! For Beastmasters in Cataclysm 4.3 please click here!ġ28.83 DPS. There’s some musing on the nature of BM in Cataclysm at the bottom though! It seemed a shame not to finish and post it.
Actually there’s very little point in posting this now with 4.0.1 just around the corner but it was almost finished when I went AFK.
