I’m very excited to announce that, quite possibly the best hunter in the world will be joining Darkbrew and I on the Hunting Party Podcast soon! Munken, of Ensidia fame! Some of the work he’s done has been a huge influence in the way I play, and given inspiration to raiding hunters everywhere. That said, I’d like to ask some reader questions of him. Anyone have anything they’d like to ask? Comment here!
Edit: I reserve the right to edit, soften, shorten, or omit any questions here.
How often does he go to the spreadsheet for help on which spec will give him the highest dps? Does he live and die by the spreadsheet at elitistjerks?
For which world-first boss kills were you sat? What class/classes took your spot? How often are you subbed in for other classes on world-first attempts?
How many hours a week do you raid 25 and 10 mans? How many hours a week do you spend preparing for raiding?
I have a bunch.
I’d be curious what he uses for a mouse and keyboard setup. Does he use a typical keyboard and a 3-5 button mouse? What keys work best for him for bindings?
Also, are there any non-standard (not recount, omen, etc.) addons that he would recommend to us?
What does he think about the T-9 set bonuses?
Having been through it on heroic, does he have any tips for hunters for the Faction Champions fight?
There is a perception on the part of some hunters that at the highest levels Hunters are not competitive and are sometimes/often replaced by hybrid classes who can bring healing/tanking to the table in addition to DPS. Is this -actually- the case? or is it just a mistaken perception?
Wat has been your favorite fight in wotlk? along with BC and Vanilla?
What fight would you say is the most challenging as a hunter, and as a raid as a whole?
What are your thoughts on the upcoming hunter changes in cataclysm(most notably the switch to Focus) and how do you think it will affect our DPS?
I have like 10 others but ill leave it to at that.
How frequently is he in the “support” role of an encounter, that is he is the one killing sparks, icicles, minor adds, etc. and for which fights does he get to just lay back and pew-pew?
how do you use readiness to enhance your pve dps
Why Fortex, and not something like Eventhorizon (http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info11935-EventHorizon.html )? How do you get used to the non-linear scale?
Does he have Rhok? :P
lol
Munks,
What was your most embarassingly stupid mistake in raids so far, and what was everyone’s reaction to it?
Any tips for beating those bastard rogues on the DPS meters?
Do you believe that hunters should have a higher potential DPS than hybrid classes, simply because they’re a “pure DPS” class?
Ooh, that’s gonna be a good one.
Why Fortex, and not something like Eventhorizon (http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info11935-EventHorizon.html )? How do you get used to the non-linear scale?…
Do you feel hunter dps is where it should be or does it need a buff?
Could you comment on the Tuskar Vitality boot enchant? It has a theoretical dps drop to Icewalker – is it strictly for help in heroic northrend beasts or is the movement helpful for getting on targets faster and moving out of fires more quickly?
Also, by your armory gear – it is well under the hit cap, is this a pvp set or the result that armpen at your levels actually gets > than hit?
What addons can you not live without to keep your dps at elite levels? Or more generally, how did you design your raid UI?
whats the addosn use by the hunter on the agalon first kill movie?
pd you are AWESOME
