Nerf, yer my hero! was gonna link all those as my next post but hadn't had time yet!

[Nerfgun]

copy pasta is the best invention ever. Just saying.

Unfortunately, I can't see the images. I tried right-clicking and viewing them in a different tab, and it took me to Dropbox with "This account's links are generating too much traffic and have been temporarily disabled!"

[Durnin]

I think Azor may have pulled them down not that his guides are officially posted on Icy-Veins and folks can check them out there.

Marksmanship Hunter Guide

Beast Mastery Hunter Guide

Survival Hunter Guide

I get generating too much traffic /shrug I'll see if I can get a work around for them.

EDIT: Recreated the links using Imgur. GG

Well I've been at it for a couple of hours now (gearing) and it's not working out. Does anyone have any information on the stat weights to put into AMR to get a proper/correct evaluation of Best in Bag info? I've just been guessing based upon conflicting information from Icy-Veins, Azor's self-contradicting posts, and several simulations I ran over the weekend on the beta version of AMR's simcraft.

Right now I'm looking at these AMR weights:

MainHandDps 7.97
Agility 7.42
AttackPower 7.03
Haste 5.17
Versatility 4.93
Mastery 4.83
CriticalStrike 4.68
set 17 2 auto
set 17 4 auto
set 18 -1 auto
set 18 2 auto
set 18 4 auto

Which produce:

737 avg item level 97,704 (+1,377) total score
primary
5,257 Agility
6,763 Stamina
secondary
3,716 (-425) Crit
1,940 (+425) Haste
1,064 Mastery
270 Versatility
0 Multistrike
calculated
6,867 Attack Power
459,180 Health
minor
0 Avoidance
0 Indestructible
0 Speed
0 Leech




Suggestions? Thoughts? From what I'm seeing and understanding, Haste and Vers are supposed to be pretty much equal...but AMR is putting my gear on that's keeping Vers only at 270, and Mastery way up there. I'm full shrug right now.
