Default Which stance do you prefer?

When solo and in small groups. I've noticed that probably 90%+ of the hunters I see around are in strength stance. I'm a precision user myself, seems to suit my playstlye better.

With the trait Enduring precision, precision Stance is easily the best..

At level 27, I tend to use Strength when solo, and Precision when in a group. The main reason for this change is to preserve power and reduce threat.

As said with enduring precision stance i don't think you have much choice (my opinion ofcourse..) I have enough focus for nearly all fights and i rarely miss. I don't think i've ever been a big fan of strenth stance (solo or fellowship) as i miss far to often for my liking! I would only really switch it for Endurance stance for less threat in fellowships (if required).

Strength for solo play and when i do get into fellowships with kin in a few more levels will use precision and swap to strength once mobs aggroed.

I use Strength Stance mainly for the slow on Quickshot when soloing or in a small group with other hunters. In all other fellowships I go Precision or Endurance depending on the level spread in the group.

i switch between all three depending on the situation, solo strength, for groups it depends on the mobs we r up against....bosses would probably be endurance and for normal elites and signatures it would be precision (with enduring precision trait) so i can get high dmg abilities out quicker, but within reason, i wouldnt be wanting to draw too much aggro from the main tankers.

Solo the strength stance is hard to beat. Being able to snare on the first arrow is great. Then you have more time to fire the following arrows.

For groups it's endurance all the way.
