The link clearly explains that the bow is objectively BiS for Hunters.
so I was remembering it right it was quite a topic back in TBC.
Thanks you confirming.
It was always a misinformed debate though. It is true a lot of people believed it wasnāt BiS back then but thatās a belief that literally depended on not looking at the tooltips. Thoridal DPS > Golden Bow DPS + Timeless Arrow DPS. Whatās not so obvious is how Steady Shot worked with ammo (or, rather, didnāt) but that skews it even more in Thoriādalās favour.
This was all known back then, too. It can be seen in threads from the time:
Also there were probably dishonest Rogues/Warriors intentionally spreading misinformation so as to increase their chances of getting it. The first person I heard the rumour from back in 2008 was a Warrior who convinced his entire raiding guild that it was bad for Hunters. Luckily it never dropped for them
Its because the misinformation about how steady shot works.
Tldr its 200-300 dps increase for a hunter over Golden bow(2nd best bow behind Thoridal).
Damn canāt belive i missed this argumment.
you flexing a 100 parse on supremus in phase 5 with sunwell gear just shows how much of a clown you are.
keep being cringe bro
Next heās gonna go do a speed run of Kara for those 100s.
Salty and jealous
Damn you, sir!!! But also, congrats.
keep coping
you look real smart
Thatās the only way he can āwinā because I washed him every phase in parses and heās mad.
Heās questioning his entire existence.
Literally what I said.
Heās only taking overall into account and his phase 5 parses on phase 2 content.
He canāt look at when it was current tier in those phases because I destroy him on parses when the content was all current.
He has to rely on his raid team with full sunwell gear going back to cheese old content.
He a clown.
Iāma smoke him this phase too.
one point four k dee pee s
Another day and it keeps going, brilliant
I canāt wait for the end of this phase so I beat you every phase.
Iāma wash you in wotlk too.
Good lord this thread derailed fast lmao.
Also arms warrior is stronger than surv hunter across most if not all parse brackets on KJ so its not really impressive to boast about higher damage numbers especially when the only kill is a prog kill. Most recent Cow kill was a 39, very impressive performance.
Tbh I donāt think heās really this dumb I think he knows heās lost every single phase to me so heās just trying to save face somehow no matter how dumb it sounds.
KJ is a melee fight for sure.
His 39 parse you brought up is more dps than my 51 parse but heās purposely ignoring that and just going for DPS numbers.
He knows he was washed every phase.
2 more 99s tonight, youre in trouble friend!!
Still not a good KJ parse tho!!!
I swear meteors only targeted me.
Itās not a legendary bow, but I got the healing mace off twins yesterday. That was pretty neatoā¦ nice stupidly large block of 600ish bonus healing in a single slot is crazy.
I finally got t6 belt yesterday.
Up to 4 99s nowā¦just need a KJ 99ā¦
I still need my belt for the set, Iām raiding in 2h 20min so I might get it today
