I have recently noticed that Kruf got his 4th piece of t11 meaning he also has the bonus. As you guys don't have public logs I was wondering how hard this instant damage from black arrow is hitting and wether or not it is worth it.

The 4T11 setbonus hits for a bit more than one Black Arrow tick (but curiously crits for somewhat less, though there weren't enough casts to be really sure). At the moment it's easily worth it for me, and I somewhat suspect it will be in the final gear list also, though I haven't bothered to do the math since some of the gear is still unavailable for now.

What is your (Kruf's) opinion on the new patch 4.0.6 4-set pve bonus (0.2 sec cast reduction on cobra shot)?

To keep it as simple as possible, I love the new set bonus.

It doesn't look too good, to be honest. With T11 level gear, even with that bonus it's very hard to reach the point where you can fit an extra Cobra Shot between Explosive Shots - so you just end up with dead time in rotation. But it remains to be seen how feasible it would be, since I haven't bothered with the math yet.

why looking for an extra CS? why just not look for an extra GCD? with the 4T11, it would seems 0.1s to get.

added to this, the "new" generation of focus could suppose a possible arcane shot (or black arrow) with 3 cobra shot between 2 explo shot.

just a pov.

What do you use the extra GCD for? I'm pretty sure there's not enough focus to do ES-CS-CS-CS-AS-ES on every round (or even nearly every) so sure, you have a free GCD but nothing to use it for. The faster cast on CS does not make it generate more focus...
