hi all

i've 2 questions for you :

1) i use to be on forum, yours and ensidia's one, to learn and improve my skill. whole forum say chimera shoot dps more than aim shot, but in my recount, aim shot dps more that chimera. Moreover, in famel when i put aim shot before chimera my dps increase on the website. so i don't understand your advice.

2) Me and my friend hunter, 've on our kikimeter hit(spare) on our shots. we don't understand why. i claimed at a mg, but he told me the addon bug, ours shots aren't spare ( i dps most of the time boss in front).

this my armory link : like it you see my gear and competences. http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet ... Fl%C3%B8ck

Thank guys

1) Elaborate how Aimed Shot does more DPS than Chimera,

2) That made no sense.

If you are ArP hard-capped then Aimed Shot does about the same damage as Chimera Shot, but Aimed Shot has a 12% higher chance to crit through talents. Because of the extra 12% crit, it can be better to use Aimed Shot before Chimera Shot because of Improved Steady Shot, using your Improved Steady Shot procs on Aimed Shot can potentially be a DPS increase because you gain more damage per shot. Having said that, at ArP cap with decent gear the damage difference between Chimera and Aimed shot is so little, and raid-buffed crit % is so high that you wouldn't even notice a DPS gain, even on the spreadsheet or femaledwarf.com it should only be a ~2-3 DPS difference.

Edit: I had trouble understanding most of what you said, so chances are you probably don't understand this response... oh well.

thanks for the answer, don't worry i understood it.

for the second point, i did some mistakes :

2) when i checked my recount, i saw bosses stop my shots. i didn't understand why so i asked at a mg. he told my the addon recount has a bug, my shots aren't stop by the boss. i wanna know if you got the same probleme on your recount and what is the reason.
i hope it is more understandin'.

thanks and sorry for mistakes

You always want to use the shot you have glyphed as higher priority, since otherwise the cooldowns start overlapping and the whole "rotation" becomes a huge mess. If you don't have glyph on either it makes practically no difference whatsoever which you use first.

I'm not sure what you mean by "stop". Partial blocks and resists are possible and do happen.

yes it's my mean.
i think i'll use aim shot glyphe, 'cause the rotation isn't as hard as cycle with chimera glyph to respect, in my opinion and accordin' to ensidia's forum post

thanks for the answers,
