Hi. I’m a casual pvp’er who doesn’t do rated content.
I’m getting good results and having a lot of fun with this setup for MM hunter, and I figured I’d let people know, in case they wanted to try it out. As great as it is, this fun won’t last after Shadowlands, so enjoy it while you can! This is a setup for single-target burst.
-
There are two important talents: Double Tap, so rapid fire will shoot 100% additional shots, and Lock and Load, for a chance at a free, instant aimed shot.
-
This build depends on joining the Necrolord covenant, in Maldraxxus.
This gives you the death chakram ability. Included in this ability is the base effect that you have 10% increased physical damage against a target for 10 seconds.
- For your conduits, you want Plague Deviser Marileth.
Then you want Plaguey’s Preemptive Strike. Your first attack against a target increases all your damage against that target by 12% for 15 seconds.
Then you want Necrotic Barrage. Fully upgraded, this gives your death chakram 16% more damage.
Then at the end you want Kevin’s Oozeling. Now, when you attack with death chakram, you summon kevin’s oozeling, which then attacks your target and gives you 6% increased damage against that target.
-
For your Legendaries, you want Surging Shots, which makes Rapid Fire deal 35% more damage. And you want the Unity legendary. In the Necrolord covenant, Unity makes up to 2 of your targets hit by death chakram automatically also hit by Explosive Shot.
-
What this looks like: Click Double Tap, so it is active on you. Open up on your target with Death Chakram. And, then, waiting a second for kevin’s oozeling to attack, follow through with Rapid Fire. So, over all, you’re clicking three abilities.
-
What is happening: Double Tap prepares Rapid Fire to fire 100% additional shots, with the 35% damage boost from the Surging Shots legendary. When you open with Death Chakram, you instantly get Plaguey’s Premeptive strike for 12% increased damage, and Death Chakram’s 10% increase to physical damage. Explosive shot is applied to your target, which will explode in about 3 seconds. After a second, Kevin’s Oozeling applies Kevin’s wrath, which gives you 6% increased damage. Then you follow through with Rapid Fire, which gets boosted from Double Tap and the legendary Surging Shots, and does physical damage. And, if Lock and Load procs, you can add in an aimed shot for free.
So, you click three abilities, (with maybe an aimed shot if Lock and Load procs,) which takes like 3-5 seconds, and by this point in time, in my experience, most decently geared targets are in a world of hurt.
