Hunters question about Trueshot Aura

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.warcraft (More info?)

Hi,

My Dwarf hunter just reached lvl40 the other day. hurrah

No mount money tho. 🙁

However I did get hold of Trueshot Aura off the Marksmanship Talent
tree.

Its says it gives 30% bonus to all party members.

My question is does this bonus stack with multiple hunters in a group?

So would a party with 5 hunters all using the aura get a 150% bonus?

Only one instance of a particular aura can be active in a party, at any
time. I believe there are only two hunter auras, Trueshot and a nature-
protection (forget its name atm) aura that gives resistance to nature
damage. If there are two hunters in the group, they can each have one
of these auras turned on, but not the same one at the same time.

Also, it's not a 30% damage bonus, it's a +30 attack power bonus. I
wish it was a 30% damage bonus ;-P You can buy skill upgrades for
it later on that jack it up a little higher than +30, though.

It in fact does not say that. It increases attack power by 30 (up to 60, at
level 60) points, not percent.

No, only 1 per group. It is actually kind of annoying having multiple
hunters in the same group using trueshot, since they overwrite one another,
and you can often find your own aura going away when you get too far away
from someone else who cast theirs over yours.

I think that could be incorrect - Trueshot Aura stacks with the active
Aspect of a hunter and if the nature protection you mentioned is Aspect Of
The Wild, then afaik they do indeed stack on group members from a single
hunter. I tend to use this combination a lot in certain parts of Dire Maul
(and against Razza in the arena).

Yes, Trueshot *Aura* stacks with *Aspect* of the Hunter. An aura is not an
aspect, and an aspect is not an aura... capiche?
