the problem isnt the typo with wind or wild ... its jsut dump to go melee + cast or hybrid in current game... if you play that way fine, but its not recommand by any means
you either go lvl 1 - 85 cast or 1 - 85 melee there is nothing inbetween ( atleast not in a group to be efficient )
if you go with your example you loose like 30-40% of your dmg ( in the later lvls 50+ ) while you do 50-60% of the dmg in the early lvl ...
in a perfect world you have around
lvl 30 51 in multicast
lvl 55 51 in multi + 27 chaos
lvl 80 51 in multicast + 46 chaos
that should be your benchmarks on HH give or take 1-2 ability points... if you go healer go multi heal instead of chaos
but never mix melee abilites + caster abilities

actually you go multicast and pillar/piercecast
other than that this is what I meant

You were drunk, and talking to Dan. You lose.
Problem with HH casting:
1) No intelligence so no mana pool. I mean NO MANA P O O L.
2) 2% of players have the gear to make this work. I have the gear. I still don't do it.
3) Bad abilities with low% to build up charge. You are out of mana by the time you can get one off. I think #1 N O M A NA P O O L
4) Doing OCC is wrong, unless you are solo. Then you are STILL wrong.
5) No
6)............Thats it.

3) actually of all classes for OCC Headhunter has the best ability access
4) As long as it is better than melee, it is not wrong
I agree with all of your posts (everyone quoted) and points, yet (YET) it does NOT mean it is not feasible to make a decent Casting Headhunter ... or to be more PRECISE, a hybrid Headhunter, all of your posts are just one sided... "OFF CAST" VS "MELEE" Headhunter... just make it "HYBRID" Headhunter, one that can Melee/Cast & heal ... and before you go off saying that it can not be done or that I DON'T know what I am talking about, I had already tested this during 1.15 days without Abilities, and it worked even though casting mana cost was HIGHER than it is now... and yes... I did it on SC with a Barbarian, Samurai builds.... so how about actually thinking about it a bit more now that you have A LOT OF FREEDOM to make it work.
I love how you all shit on me and think I don't know shit about this or that my advice is shit and so forth without even realizing that I have accomplished it in the old days... now it is easier and more gear availability in SC for items... like I stated before... you do NOT need to collect up a full "OFF CASTING" set, you just need around level 45-55 equipment and build up your stats and abilities to work for the build... and damn now you have Multi Strike & Multi Cast for a Headhunter to use in a group.
