According to this hunter; "I'd like to note that any +damage you have from gear or other effects contributes 100% of the listed value instead of the ~42-43% that arc shot itself gets"

Fuck that I didn't get the zhc earlier... would be murder..

Edit:

makes abit more sense with the dmg/healing on the aq set as well alltho that set has good stats and the dmg/healing as a "bonus" I guess.

Boring part is that afaik, dmg/healing only affect serpent sting/volley/arcane shot. Traps remains the same as do scorpid sting (-68 str/agi) and viper sting (drain 1108 +/-? over 8 sec). 2 last is fair enough, but immolation trap and explosive trap I wouldn't mind it affecting. (fire dmg)

Of course I am gonna test this out with my imba dmg/heal gear (+79 Oo)

Oh dear.

Insta's are supposed to get 43% contribution from +dmg, and any AE effect 33% of whatever the "base contribution" would be.

Would be 14% from +dmg items for that Arcane AOE Shot trinket thingy.

I'd love that 100% coefficient on my shocks btw! Why not? I mean, they're on a 6 sec cooldown!

gonna check it out as soon as the damn slackers put the server back on... my source isn't the best one tbh, just some random dude on thottbot claiming it...

Still, this isn't all that btw... do about 200 dmg each hit roughly. The full aq set has for us hunter +42 dmg/healing so for it to be insane I'm gonna have to start rolling on claw of chromangus and that neffie staff for it to have battle changing effect..

Arcane shot gets 43% but its still different from other instant spells cause arcane shot gets an melee crit multiplier (200%) instead of the spell crit modifier(150%) also because of that arcane shot is modified by mortal shots talents for 230% damage with full talent points. Serpent sting does get the full 100% of spell damage listed cause its a dot but its damage over time added over its full duration.

The ae arcane shot trinket is also different cause this one does again gets 100% of listed spelldmg bonus but then again is bound by spellcrits(150% instead of 200%)

The problem is post below that most people seem to miss is you are decreasing your multi/aimed/autoshots ofcourse by going spelldmg instead of the more regular agi etc hunter gear. I suspect more gear in future instance having more spelldmg too though so my hunter spec would have been something like this though 5/38/8 http://www.wowhead.com/talent/?mxZVVqNthtI0b Think hurricane with arcaneshot rotation basiacly
