Survival Gear/Mechanics Question
2010-02-27
1 Agility = 1 Ranged Attack Power (RAP)
40 Agility = 1 Crit (at level 70)
14 RAP = 1 DPS
22.3 Crit Rating = 1 Crit
Taken directly from my guide in my sig, as well as many other places on this forum (including the sticky).
Personally speaking if you're using the Beast Lord Hanguards to achieve the requirements for your Meta-Socket bonus, then keep them on. If you require the hit to stay capped (while raiding), then keep the Beast Lord as well. As SV, yes we want to be agility junkies, but at the same time your raids have to warrant even using an SV hunter as a DPS role. If you're strictly after agility, then go with the Beast Lord Hanguards, if you want a little extra damage and survivability go with the Demon Stalker.
SV is about adding raid DPS with sustained DPS by yourself. If your raids are typically Physical DPSer's, then your overall DPS will be much greater then that of a BM. Now please BM's don't take this the wrong way, but an SV will add more RAID damage overall, not PERSONAL damage, over you. Again this is under the assumption that you have more physical DPSer's.
For example, in a typical raid boss fight for my guild, we have around 10-12 physical DPSer's. With my agility raid buffed, I have roughly 1224 agility. This puts my EW at roughly 306 add...

My bad. The drinking nerf was put only in the Arena.

So it's almost always best to EM your 2nd spell instead of the 1st (unless the mobs are moving and won't all be hit by theL if you delay EML til the 2ndast; as is often thease in PVP) Ah. Interesting. I will remeber that. Thanks.
That's some pretty bad math.... But I just don'tare enough about it to argue anymore. You people say and do what you want.
Having a 'lk as my main, I wanted to go melee. So I levelled a Warrior. 59 right...
