DPS, not the best but trying. Reading up on tactics, and updating from icy-vain.

Your Spec
BM artifact lvl 74, I'm going with the Dire Frenzy Build, priority here is Dire Frenzy, ( Pawn: v1: "Azor-BM-FrenzyBuild": Class=Hunter, Spec=BeastMastery, Agility=31.66, Ap=30.06, CritRating=39.55, HasteRating=37.3, MasteryRating=45.54, Versatility=35.47, Dps=17.66 ). Are going to change build since FB is lacking in dps now


Off-specs and Alternative characters
If Melee is needed I don't mind changing to Survival
Kamashiru Druid Balance, Resto and Guardian can join if needed on alt runs, she has not yet done ToV, NH or ToS on anything else then LFR. EN is done LFR, Normal and HC all with Pugs. I'm taking her pug raiding as a tank and healer if that is also needed.

Communication
Got a Snowball blue stand-alone Mic (LOVE IT), and love talking in the raid chat. Cheeking Icy-vain and updating WA and other guides for new raids or to learn tacts. Sigam#21349 (ADD ME JIMMBLE!)

Combat Logs
I have problems with the Warcraft Log Uploader it doesn't save my logs like it used to do so I have downloaded Auto Log today (10.01.18). I can't wait to see where I can improve and be a better raider.

Your UI

Don't remember my old guild since I have been in RC since 2007

Can you circle what you would have taken away? I'm looking for good ElvUI setups but I can't /haven't find/found one I like.

Thanks

For ui tips, (if you want them)...

Damage meter is much too large, also there's no need to have 3 of them, at this point, because of their size and also position, they may take away some of the focus from your character, leading you to be more likely to stand in stuff. I would personally consider moving them away and reducing in size (I personally prefer the bottom left corner, and the size of 5-8 people, but that's my preference, you do whatever works for you)

Another thing that I would consider, is moving at least your own health bar, and perhaps the enemy health bar closer to the middle of the screen... This is because having to look at the top left of your screen l will again take away your focus from your own character, potentially causing you to miss standing in something.

Lastly, you probably have too much information on your screen (I can personally see 2x murder of crows and 2x cobra shot weakauras/tmw) you may want to consider how much of this info you really need, and how much of it is just fluff.

These are just hints, and you can do whatever you like, but these are things I'd personally consider.

I always put my damage meters (and only showing top 10 or so with quite small text so it only takes about 4-5 cm in height) on the bottom right. You have a large window with loot/trade info there it seems, which is ofcourse not essential info during a boss fight, so that would be the place I'd put damage meters. Bottom left is often the chat window which I'd keep there.
As others said, only show one damage meter and I'd also ditch the healing meters unless you're healing .

I always used the raid frames as a tank to monitor my own health (and incoming healing etc.) and that of the other tank, so I placed my frame close to the center. I didn't need my unit frame anymore that way as it's a lot larger with unnecessary information.

[Sigam]

I have removed some of the stuff and got a new UI I'm not a 100% happy with it. When I got time I will post a new picture.

This is the new one. I don't like the double info about buffs. Need to remove one of them.

Looks a lot cleaner, although it's not in a raid setup at the moment. Raid frames on the left might get a bit too big then.

[Sigam]

This is in raid form :
