Casting between swings: Ranger w/ Earthshaker

[Snaggles]

Hi all,

I bought an Earthshaker on a whim, just as a toy. My brother is a Bard so I figured that might work well for swarm kiting or clearing low dungeons someday. Turns out it actually procs a considerable amount (or seems to). I'm currently reverse-kiting animals and since Panic Animal only lasts like 10 seconds the dps loss from the Woodsman doesn't seem huge. I'm constantly turning off-on attack between casts of fear.

As a very casual player I'll prob tank-n-spank mobs into my low 50's when the WL raptors green out. Here's my question...

1.) Buff up, cast snare/dots and just plunk away with Swarmcaller until it procs, then switch to Woodsman. Cast Call of Flame when it's available. Root, heal, repeat.
2.) Buff up, cast snare/dots but skip the Swarmcaller, just use Woodsman for the ratio advantage. Cast Call of Flame when it's available. Root, heal, repeat.
3.) Buff up, cast snare/dots and just plunk away with Swarmcaller until it procs, then switch to Earthshaker. Cast Call of Flame when it's available. Cast Firestrike and dots between swings. Root, heal, repeat.

Basically does not having your swing timer reset on the longer spells with the slower proccing weapon (and casting spells) make up for your huge ratio disadvantage? Less ripostes and larger ones too due to the 37 vs 31 dmg weapon.

Thanks!

PS: I know I should just parse it. Any suggestion on software that is cool with the P99 team? I'd rather not try to reverse a ban from a seemingly innocuous analysis...
