HELP!
i need help in trying to find out why my hunter only does 1300 dps.
let me give you some background.
ive tried all three and hybrid specs, when i have gone to survival spec my hunters dps wont go above 1900. its even lower when its mm. so max is 1900 that ive ever been able to do. this is with and without using macros from elitistjerks.com site.
i've tried changing enchants, ive placed gems with armor pen and switched them out again.
i've tried everything i can to make his dps better. the last spec i through on him was bm because while doing dailies and soloing which is all i do with him now since this problem, id much rather enjoy the class.
does anyone have any advice? i am seriously tired of them nerfing the best class in the game.
thanks,
grum

thats the thing im not so sure im doing the right things but ive tried alot of different things with weird results. are hunters broken in other specs other then SV?
i hope they make hunters have burst damage in cataclysm like they do with assassin rogues in 3.2
i appreciate the help!

you gear looks good but you have low hit. point for point +hit is the best stat you can stack for dps untill it is caped. i would suggest getting your 226 conq badge legs and geting armbracers of the smoldering inferno both have over 40 hit on them leaving you a little room to get rid of 1 or 2 +hit gems.
i also see you have a few +ap gems and altho thats not too bad of a thing i would suggest for any other spec than bm stack agil,agil oh and agil as serv you not only get 32 ap from a 16 agil gem but you get some nice crit and it stacks with bok.
as soon as you can i would suggest finding a polarm or staff with +hit on it to get rid of your daggers, the only thing good about them for hunters is the all of hit they have together.
now lets look at chants. again 50 ap is ok to have on the daggers but a +agil chant would be best on both, for your boots right now for you icewalker would be much much better for you than 24 ap and i would look into getting a +hit chant for your gloves till you are at a ok number to feel like its safe to put the hand rockets back on.
other than that you are off to a good start ill let some1 else go over your spec. good luck raiding and geting your dps up man.

when you were SV (best dps from what i've seen) stack agi primarily (maxdps.com has a very good guideline if your looking for what stats to go for with your current gear) hit cap is necisary....period. other than thats its making sure you keep your abilities on CD with priority in this order. Kill Shot, explosive shot, black arrow, multi/aimed shot (i use multi as i put 2 points into GftT) and serpent sting. make sure you take advantage of EVERY lock and load proc. (i set up power aura to make i big flash on my screen so that i can't miss it) I hope this helps you.
Here is my spec if you are interested

I just hit 80 ~3 weeks ago, but i'm pulling 3500+ in ten mans so far.

Stick with it! its not that you are doing anything seriously wrong - its mainly that your gear isn't up to par. Keep running heroics, accumulate badges, get better gear, increase dps :)
just to second what most people have said - Hit is the MOST important stat you have - get your hit rating to 8% for raids and i believe 6% for heroics - you get 0 dps from a miss!
