Hunter auto attack macro

Hello, according to logs and player experience, there is a way to attack much faster then intended using macro during the burst. Some players are getting 0.134s autoatack timer, which is really insane and completely broke hunter logs.
I can see that being abused even in arenas, cos the burst dps of those macro is kinda insane and it doesnt need any long cast.

You can see how it works on this video

This was in original tbc to so intended or not idk but they didn’t fix it so I’d assume it was a feature. Or blizzard are incompetent

In the original TBC there was a limitation on how fast the shoot animation could cast and your auto-shot speed was tied to that limitation. That limitation is no longer present in Classic with the modern client, or it’s significantly faster.

This is part of why hunters are doing too much dps, it’s definitely a bug with Classic and one of many still in the game. Edit : And before anyone asks about bug reports, my guilds hunters were talking about this bug existing on the Beta already before TBC launched, it was reported during beta and plenty of hunters were at least aware of it. My speculation is Blizzard probably only look into bugs that get a lot of reports.

yeah hunters need the nerf hammer, they’re outDPSing everyone purely from a bugged macro that breaks game mechanics.

Imagine if I can macro myself a .5 second frostbolt!

Well, you can do it with arcane blast and explosion, also bug
