[:1]Well, in preparation for the patch, I need to learn the MM shot rotation, if there is one. Maybe you guys can help me out with it.
As per Elitistjerks forums:

6.4.1 Single Target Shot Priority
The general MM shot/ability priority is as follows for single targets:
1) Shortly before combat starts apply HM to the target
2) Shortly before combat starts cast MD on the target’s tank
3) SrS (only if the target will live longer than 12s)
4) CS
5) KS
6) RF
7) Readiness (RD)
8) SS pair (if less than 3 to 4s on the ISS buff)
9) AI (if have a MMM proc)
10) KC (if have a RiF proc or pet is on the target and target is out of LoS)
11) AS (if will have enough focus for CS (focus > 60))
12) SS
At the start of fights this results in SrS-CS-RF-RD-CS. This has CS cast prior to RF so that the duration of RF will not start with a shot whose duration is unaffected by its haste and hopefully to allow an additional SS to be affected by the RF. Hand calculations and Female Dwarf both showed this to be a slight DPS gain over casting RF first.
[top]6.4.2 Multiple Target Shot Priority
The general MM shot/ability priority is as follows for multiple targets:
1) Shortly before combat starts apply HM to the prime target (can be skipped if not enough time)
2) Shortly before combat starts cast MD on the main tank for the targets
3) Shortly before combat starts cast Trap Launcher and then ET
4) At the start of combat, place ET where the tank will tank the targets
5) MS (plus the WQ procs)
6) AI (if have a MMM proc and your current target is about to die for chance of killing blow and 50 focus)
7) KS (if your current target is about to die for chance of killing blow and 50 focus)
8) SS (to regen focus for more MSs - can do a pair for the ISS buff and better focus regen)
It usually is not worth it to use RF and Readiness on AoE packs since those are usually trash and you want to make sure to have both ready for boss fights. However, if it is a really difficult AoE pack of long enough duration, it may be beneficial to use RF and Readiness for the additional focus regen from RF and the faster SS cast times to power more MSs.
Thanks! great info
Isn't this suppose to change? I keep hearing that we will be hard casting Aimed Shot, even after CA phase. *shrugs*
ratta tat tat
BEE DEE BA DOOP BA DAA DAA ok sorry
This sounds like a pve rotation althought for pvp I guess throwing the ET near your melee would help too. That is, if you haven't already gone crazy spamming multishot near the flag in Tol Barad hoping that you might live more than 3 seconds.
MM don't have rotation, they have revolvers. *hyuk hyuk hyuk*
