Does anyone else here use Rawr?
I'am finding some info in there a little confusing I hope someone can clear up for me.
Firstly I had Marrowstrike but have now replaced it with the Orca Hunters Harpoon which to me seemed a better wep.
But Rawr rates Marrowstrike higher in both overall and dps options which I dont understand.
Rawr also rates Distant Land as the top 2 handed wep for Hunters with Haste gems socketed over AP gems over Agil gems.
Haste over Agil????
AP over Agil????
Have I missed something somewhere?

A. Rawr has been pretty borked gem-wise for a few different classes for a while now. I don't know if Hunter is one of them. I do recall there apparently being a point where ArP was rated above Agi though. I could be wrong (I'm far from a Hunter expert--this is second-hand knowledge).

B. Did you need hit? If not, the Marrowstrike looks MUCH better to me. You can gem for Hit, if you need it, and grab the 4 Agility. Or you can go for Agility/ArP and ignore the bonus. Or go Orange, and get a little bit of all. The Orca spear has a blue gem--you're not going to be getting the (lolworthy) socket bonus with that.

Marowstrike:
106 Agi
Yellow Socket
--+4 Agi
57 Crit
154 AP
60 ArP

Orca:
112 Agi
Blue Socket
--+4 Agi
84 Hit
66 Crit
183 AP

You gain, like, 33 AP without talents and lose 9 crit. If you need hit, Orca is probably better. If you don't need it that badly, the ArP on Marrow is probably better.

Or, if you just need a little hit, put a Glinting Ameterine in there for 14 Agi and 10 hit. You only lose 6 Agi from the socket over Orca.

I could totally be wrong, but Marrow just looks better to me. Remember that higher ilvls doesn't necessarily mean an upgrade.

Note: the ArP is 4.87%.

All in all, seems like a sidegrade at best. I can't imagine a noticeable DpS increase from either.

Yeah.

Rawr is a piece of **** for hunters.
FemaleDwarf or The Spreadsheet are what you should use. (the first is a simplified web version of the second)

No problem guys, I put Marrowstrike back on and will checkout FemaleDwarf.
Thanks for the help.
