On prog the goal should not be overall damage, it should be to kill the boss. BM on the boss is better than MM is on the platforms, as far as "how can a Hunter make the biggest difference" goes, but depends on the comp and strengths of the players in the group.
@@Azortharion well the main problem we are having at the moment is finishing the platform at around 15-17 stacks, we usually get it at 18 atm which isnt that bad but i'd like to push a little more dmg for it so thats why i was asking if bm aoe might be better than mm, currently im using bm aoe. The biggest downside is my single target will probably be worse
All of the top hunter logs go up in group 2 just like you. We're progressing this boss and I'm assigned to grp 1. I don't see any top logs going CtS. Is that because they all go up in the second group? Because with me being in the first group CtS allows me to use Trueshot on pull and then every 1:30, aligning perfectly with the 1st and 3rd plattform adds respectively. Without CtS I could only Trueshot at 1:30 and then again at 4:30. That's seems like Trueshot not being used for way too long.
Going group 1+3 is simply horrible for Hunters and I feel bad for you. You'll struggle to find good logs that go on first. CTS is the play if you do go first, but then you are of course much weaker for the platforms because you sacrifice Unerring Vision.. That + the poor timings is the entire reason you don't send Hunters up there, but perhaps your raid leader was unaware of this.
@@Azortharion Thanks for the quick reply Azor! I was assigned to grp 1 because all other dps also wanted to go grp 2. I guess the timing is just better for a lot of classes, not just hunters.
For this farm kill, I took neither. Back on prog, I did Wailing Arrow. On farm they die before my Wailing Arrow assignment even came up.

@@Azortharion We're progressing this boss and I almost die on my plattform even with sotf up while dodging the swirlies :( would love to use the trinket there lol
Feel free to ask any Hunter questions in the comments (individual comments please, not replies to this) and I will try to answer them all.
my guild just started prog on dathea, do you think a multishot bm hunter build would be better now for overall dmg or still mm?

Did you take explosive trap or wailing arrow?
Also, is your music playlist on Spotify?

Are the adds that important that you go aoe build vs singel target build ?
If you are assigned to platforms, you of course go AoE build. If you're not, I'd just go BM single-target and truck the boss.
That dathea trinket on adds 😂😂😂
8% of overall but a bit risky as you can't dodge. Survival of the fittest makes it work though.

i miss double tap, good job
Yeah for this fight in particular, I imagine its absence is more noticeable.
