out-of-combat focus regen

Dear Blizz,

please address the out-of-combat focus regen for hunters as it is seriously lacking. It should be increased 200 - 300% the problems of not having enough focus for the next pull for both MM and SV hunters is enormous. These specs do not have an instant focus boost like BM does and this IS a balance issue. So to prevent abuse the only solution should be to allow the out-of-focus regen to occur alot faster then when in combat. Right now the regen is just as slow as in combat. Surely when hunters rest in between battles their regen should increase.

As far as i can tell, spirit in combat does not help a hunters regen of focus, it is only affected by haste. Using ones haste abilities in between mobs as MM and SV is basically a huge dps nerf so no one should ever do it.

PLEASE consider this as the fix for this issue. As a comparison, Rogues regen is fast enough to cope with jumping to the next mob right off the bat without the need to have an instant energy pop, i would ask the same be done for hunters but the mechanics for hunters abilities are completely different. So the next best thing to ask for is faster out-of-combat focus regen of 200 - 300% more to be ready for the next pull. If it were still mana for hunters they'd be able to drink.

Thanks

I believe the 2 talents in MM (Rapid Killing and Rapid Recuperation) give you 50 focus when you kill an XP/honor worthy target - which is the amount as BM's fervor minus the 2 minute CD. The only tree I see that doesn't have something like that is SV.
I usually start casting Cobra Shot right before the tank pulls a mob if I need the focus.
his idea is solid. stop offering alternative solutions. We should be able to regen focus easily like a rogue.
