It also eats up a GCD to reapply, so it's not a gimme that you'll always have it up. I don't really see any other configuration for the points in the MM tree, apart from maybe taking 1 point from GftT. Thing is, that's a pretty important point not only for DPS, but also to make sure your pet has enough focus for its special ability.

I could never imagine not going 3/3 in it for any build. Rapid Killing is really only useful in PvP for the buff you gain after a killing blow. Thing is, you have to get the killing blow in order to receive the buff, which can be a real crap shoot in PvP. Most importantly though... Survival Hunters do not use Arcane Shot. This is why Imp Arcane Shot is not included. ;) Hi molock,

Im just thinking that arcane shot is one of the mosted used shots by the hunter and the extra 15% bonus plus rapid killing 10% bonus gives good amount of damge. But there has to be a reason u dint so im just wondering. garwulf i love the guide you have laid out but i have a question. why not take 3 pionts out of careful aim and the 1 piont out of go for the throat and put 3/3 pionts in improved arcane shot and 1 piont in rapid killing instead.

It's hard to beat the snares that crabs, spiders and ravagers provide. Their abilities are going to come in handy no matter who you're playing against, where as a scorpid really only shines vs teams where you need to drain a healer. Mtniel,
