Hey everyone, been using these boards since FFXI came out, but rarely ever post. Been playing WoW since release, and mainly hunter, but I sometimes get epic happy and make some bad purchases. I scanned the boards to look for a similar thread, so apologies in advance if I ask something that's brought up once a week or more.
Anyways, I'm a BM spec hunter at the moment. I'm only PvPing right now, but in the next month I'm looking towards starting into Kara (GF moving in and getting high speed for the two of us). I'm very close to the stats that Aethien has listed to shoot for before getting into Kara, but as I wait for the months to go by gold is stacking up and honor and tokens are as well.
The question is, at the moment I'm using a Valanos' Longbow (who hasn't?) and the steady shot rotation. I was wondering if the Gladiator's Xbow for my spec is a legitimate upgrade if I have the honor and the marks to attain it. Or should I grab something else instead and save for the Don Santos (not a big gun fan for personal reasons)? And also, if it's not a worthy upgrade, could you tell me exactly why and if it has to do with anything besides weapon speed?

Thanks a lot for the help and all of the conversations I've read. This community has certainly made me a better player. Thanks again.
