Different RaidComps - Which Hunter pet to assign?

[sirupfisch]

Hi,
We are about 14 people in our 10-man raid, therefore our raidcomp changes - at least slightly - every single raid.

I was wondering how to get to optimal output for buffs. So an important factor is the hunter pet. I made a small Excel sheet, which should help you to choose the optimal hunter pet to assign. Be aware also within the same raid group the buff assignment can change, e.g. a warrior speccs from Fury to Prot (and vice versa) depending on the encounter.

Sheet 1 is in English, Sheet 2 is the same in German.

One thing I am not quite sure is in which speccs all the dmg classes can apply the debuffes (e.g. I have no idea about how a WL is played ;-))

Maybe it helps someone!hunter pets.xls

You could use this tool:

Raid Comp

it will show what debuffs are and are not covered.

Green = you got it.
Yellow means, you can have it. Normally for hunter pets, or pally aura's.
Red means you don't, and you won't with that set up.

This is what I've used at least.

Thanks - I know that tool. Actually most of the information IS from that page...
It is perfect for an missing buff assessment but not clearly enough for hunter pet assignment.
It doens't even have the pet type their nor does it say which pets are needed for a raid.

Wolf - 5% crit
Windserpent/dragonhawk - 8% spell damage debuff
Cat - str/agi
Raptor - Sunder Armor
Boar - 30% bleed
Ravager - 4% physical damage

There are other pets that provide these buffs, but these are the only ones that I know off the top of my head that are not Exotic (Beastmaster only).
