That is a nice gun for sure, but it is a warrior piece, not a hunter piece. I would bet my life that even tho you would go down in gs (which isnt all that important anyway!), you would likely see a dps boost from either the felglacier from hPOS, or the cryptfiend slayer from hHOR over this gun. Or if you feel you have to wait, the bow off deathwhisper in 10man icc would do better than the latter 2.
The problem is, the stats on that gun are useless for hunters. So even tho the iLevel/gs might be the same as a the icc10 bow, you are not getting any boost whatsoever from dodge, defense, and strength stats. You need agility, attack power, ArP, etc etc.
The bow in POS has a good drop rate, might want to pick it up asap, til you can get ahold of the one from LDW, and POS is rather easy these days.
Good luck!

OfflineI second what Malice said. Even the bow that drops from Utguard Keep heroic is an upgrade for you now. The bow you have is adding little.
I also wanted to point out that your Hit Rating is *well* below what it should be (8%) You are a dranaie, which helps, however, your misses will lessen if you head on over and look at some hit gear. I would also swap out the resilience gems for agility, crit, and until you have the hit rating at 8% either through gear or points in Focused Aime, into hit gems. Also, ditching the PVP gear as well will help. I'm not sure if I caught you in PVP gear on logout, but it's a detriment for PVE
Doesn't matter how hard you hit things if you're missing shots, right?
I'm super glad to hear the advice is helping, too!

OfflineContrary to what a lot of others may think, Rowan's is actually not a bad weapon provided you can't get your hands on a Njordnar or Zod's.
The stats on it suck, but simply put… it's a 255 DPS weapon.
At the end of the day, that number is what matters most – especially for a marksman.
If anyone tries to clown you for using an ilvl 264 tank gun only because you haven't been lucky enough to get anything better… tell them to suck it.

I used Rowans right up until I got the bone bow off of LDW and while I caught some flak, I took solice in doing 5K in heroics and 7-9K in ICC with the rifle. It is signifigantly better for a MM hunter than anything outside of ICC BoP drops, and that is because even if the Xbow from HPoS hits a tiny bit harder, with the amount of extra auto shots the rifle does you will still far and away do more overall damage. Your specials will hit for about the same, maybe 5% less, but you will see a 10-15% increase from the extra auto shots alone.
Yes that factors in the useless tank stats. This only applies to MM though, SV are better off with the Xbow.

Almost 200 points over hit cap, no set bonuses, using the worst piece of T10, using PvP gear, not gemming properly, hmmm, I can't tell your shot rotation from looking at your armory, but I'm guessing that's off too, as well as your CD usage.
Just looked at your wolf's spec, and wow is that ever off too.
This is an issue of PEBKAC.

I had never asked advice untill yesterday. As far as Gems, rotation, spec and gear, I asked a guildie for advice before I came here.

Offline*bops Indo* Constructive advice? :-p
I am not sure what your guildie gave you advice on for going Marksman, however, I would highly suggest taking a look at this link:
http://huntsmanslodge.com/guides
Gar has spent a lot of time, energy, brain cells, and beer in writing the guides. While it's nice to ask in the forums, it's always good to start of by doing research on your own as well, so that you know what is being discussed. Consider it a bit of homework, before you come to class, if you will. Now that you are MM, consider looking specifically at his PvE for gems, enchants, and spec, all for Marksman. Start there, get your rotation down first at the test dummies, then with a *slow * tank in 5-mans, before hitting anything remotely close to ICC. You are hating Marksman because you are comfortable with a different set of shots, that's all. If after changing things around a bit, you still feel uncomfortable with MM, I think given your current set up, you will still see a dps increase if you follow the advice in the guides, even returning to SV.
