Your Raiding Character

Talent Choices:
I currently use a surivial spec for some encounters that require alot more movement, with some bosses i switch to MM, thou i am currently gemmed agility over ArP for MM.
I will start gemming for ArP once i have reached the 800 mark.

Please list your professions (including secondary ones), your skill and the reason you chose them:
I chose leatherworking for the enchants that it provides, and skinning for the crit, thou i will drop it soon as the buff it gives is so tiny in comparison.I will most likely take up JC for the gems.


What is your previous raiding experience:
As a main tank i have done up to LK 25 HC, until phase 3.
LK 10 Hunter, tried 10 HC with pug.. our server is rather terrible in pugs.
Lord 10Hc/25HC (Pally/Hunter)
Lady 10Hc/ (Pally)
Boat 10Hc/25Hc (Pally/Hunter)
Saurfang 10hc/25hc (Pally)
Rotface 10hc/25hc (Pally)
festergut 10hc/25hc (Pally)
Prince 10hc/25hc (Pally)
Queen 10hc/25hc (Pally)
Dream 10hc/25hc (Pally)

I was not in the raid when they got sin, so went directly to LK


Guilds and History:

My hunter recently became my primary character due, i have tanked so much in the last few years, i wanted a change of class. I am currently in a semi-progressive guild,
they are a very decent guild. Thou with two sometimes three other hunters it seems a bit crowded. With my paladin i was on Laughing Skull in Randoms, they disbanded, i moved
to Magtheridon, and joined Eximius, thou due to conflict and personal preferences i decided it was not for me, and moved over to my hunter permanently. The current guild i am in has its set team, so i am usually going into 10m raids, while this is fun, i find myself being gimped.

Additional Information:
i have some professions i.e cooking,fishing that are low. can be leveled fast, tho i do have a supplier for feasts and other items.

DPS Stats:

Currently in 25m when the encounter is more forgiving in movement, my dps is around the 10k Mark, against LK 10 last night, phase 1 i get around 11.5K, It starts declining when all the movement starts
and usually settles at around 8K. Against a HC dummy with my self buffs, i pull about 5.8-6K, having to switch to viper then loose quiet a bit of DPS because of it.


Describe your raid playstyle, what spells are you using and why, what is your typical dps rotation, etc:
My typical dps rotation starts off with rapid fire, landing a serpent sting, black arrow, explosive shot, aimed, shot, then steady, i then refresh my stings when required, and obviously switch to explosive when LnL procs. Kill Shot is top priority when its available, then comes explosive, then aimed. I am also pvp friendly so i can quick reaction times, and know how to get out sticky situations pretty fast.

Explain your talent and gemming choices: I have ignored some of the socket bonuses, as the amount gamed, versus the loss from full agi gems was not worth it, i have had numerous debates with other people on them gemming full ArP with only my level of passiveness, and decided against it, i actually did try it but the results where very lackluster. So i decided to take advantage of full agility which has been very beneficial, i am using Aimed Shot Glyph to reduces the cd on it, it provides a nice burst in dps,Explosive shot for its chance to critically strike,the one im a bit skeptical about is the steady shot one, which increases its damage from serpent sting, i have been meaning to change it to try out something else just haven't had a chance.

Side Notes:
I realize i have a melee cloak due to the stats being a huge upgrade for me, i am currently saving for badges for the onslaugh cloak, i am way over the hit cap, and gear has been a bit nasty towards me. The amount of raids ive done with all dailies ive had to prioritize what gear to go for first, and craftables. I realize the t10 bonus is a huge upgrade in dps for me, and believe me i have been working towards them, and getting pieces where i can. Also my aim is to go full MM once i have reached the required ArP rating. As for raiding i have alot of experience with my paladin, and actually the encounters all together, i have done numerous encounters with my hunter, and find it alot easier than tanking at times. shoulder/header i have a bank with about 10 of each enchant, as they are BOA, thou i will be working on the required rep.

UI Screen Shot: Im not currently at home so cannot provide this, but i use forticist for buff durations, i also use dbm, grid, power auras, 1920x1200 resolution, my ui is extremely neat and not cluttered, can see everything that's happening on screen, gfx full up for optimal visualization of spell mechanics.

Much appreciated, should be in a day or two, just waiting to get paid. Hope thats not a problem

I will be on bloodhoof tonight, blizzard have isolated an issue with the credit facilities and thus it locked my transfer for 72 hours.. And they wouldnt even release the time. I have dropped skinning and started leveling JC.
