When i got kill shot I added it to my steady shot macro so that it will replace a steady shot whenever it’s ready. 5-8% of my damage in an instance ends up being kill shot, which was a big surprise to me.

Also, I am currently ‘prot’ specced. I took all the tanking abilities in both my and my gorilla’s trees. It allows the gorilla to pick up huge numbers of mobs to aoe down. It also makes soloing elites much easier.

I know what you mean. Most of the time it comes at the beginning of a fight and the Stomp follows.

I need to do a bit more macro consolidation. My bars are filling up again and I would be hard pressed to find a location for Kill Command and a usable hotkey. :)

I also have it set in a macro for standard boss fights, but during grinds it works better if I time it just right after I go BW and just before a stomp.

I have Kill Command macro’d with Steady Shot so I use it every time it is up. I know if I didn’t I would forget to use it.

Misdirection and multishot are the first things I hit when grinding with Gorilladin, then is basically a process of keep moving directing the pet to targets along the way until you're ready to Volley them down. Steady/Multi when refilling with AotV, and serpent/steady for single elite fights.

White grinding, I also use BW whenever is up so I can keep moving around picking up more mobs and avoid stuns on kong, just hit Kill command before Stomps to raise threat and volley again FTW

Misdirection with multi is great not only to increase my pets aggro but to help him pull even more mobs that are a bit distant, saving each hit for a different mob.
