Hi there's nothing wrong with strafe. Let me explain.
You see bola does 160% damage PER HIT. Meaning every bola does 160% damage to the targeted mobs
BUT with strafe is NOT per hit is over the duration of strafe. If you press strafe, it last over like 1-1.5 seconds right? so that 156% dmg is being divided over that duration.
Actually your LfB damage is nice. Mine was 850k - 1.1m.
And you made a mistake on LfB. That 1m DPS is the impact point. You're missing the 4 x 100% bombs that hits as well. So all in all you're getting A LOT damage from LfB if you aim properly.
LfB Tips: If a monster is moving towards your direction, you aim LfB infront of it because the bombs have a "fall back" animation and by doing so, you're getting the most DPS out of the bombs as well.
If a monster is heading away from you, you aim LfB behind it and you will get the bombs to hit as well.
Basically, you aim LfB in the direction the monster is moving and your bombs will hit for extra damage.
best way to practice is to find demonic tremors or those fat bloodclan oculist to aim.
Looks like Blizz finally caved-in and buffed Rapidfire for DH (from recent PTR Patch Update):
Demon Hunter Rapid Fire Cost: 20 Hatred initially, and an additional 6 (from 10) Hatred while channeling / Rapidly fire for 438% (from 276%) weapon damage as Physical.
Bombardment : Rapidly fire grenades that explode for 414% (from 345%) weapon damage as Fire to all enemies within a 8 (from 4) yard radius. Fire Support : While channeling Rapid Fire, launch 2 homing rockets every second. Each rocket deals 145% (from 35%) weapon damage as Physical to nearby targets. Withering Fire : Reduces the initial Hatred cost to 10 (from 5), and ignites your arrows, causing them to deal Fire damage.
Grab your rapidfire%skill DML now! lolz Would u switch to Rapidfire for your Hatred Spender? Thoughts? Personally i would give it a try in PTR ... i think i hv a Rapidfire DML on one of my mules

thats a big buff! will be a great single target skill for DH
they shud buff ballistics passive as well hehe
yup .. gonna give it a try on PTR and see how noticeable the dmg buff is RF-Webshot (to maintain phycl dmg so can use cold SoJ + CotW passive.. mobs get slow down by 80% + chilled by cold SoJ) Bola-Bitter Pill (for AoE & disc gen) Prep-Punishment (for more Hatred)
However as Deckard Cain pointed out to me RF buff will benefit Cala users more than Manti users.
