Hi
I've been BM since I started my hunter, and was glad when it became more useful in groups with the expansion.
I've found that my spec works well in 5-mans, and also in Kara, where I generally manage to get my pet attacking in most fights without much damage happening to him.
Now, my guild does Kara 3/4 nights a week, and a 25 man (right now, Gruul's) on Sunday. One of the MM hunters asked about my spec in raids, sort of hinting that he didn't think it would be ideal in such a raid size. I replied saying I'd consider a respec if we were doing 25 man raids more often.
However, he got me thinking a bit (dangerous). Hypothetically, if my guild did progress to a stage where it was doing 25 man raids more than Kara, how would my spec hold up? I had a quick glance over my talents and realised that a great many of them are pet-based (It's beast spec, I expect this to be true). Even with the decline in the popularity of MM hunters, I wondered if a MM spec would be more beneficial. How much is serpent's swiftness worth compared to the damage bonuses from MM?
Oh, you can see me here btw, if it matters. Could do with soem tweaking but...
Ok, I'm rambling. Any opinions?
