Marksmanship Hunter
Ranged DPSOne of the scariest DPS to play against in arena, period. Marks Hunters deal enormous damage during True Shot and Volley windows and can even do devastating AoE burst thanks to the ricochet effect of Aimed Shot.
Current Meta Position
Key Abilities
Important Casts
Shadowmeld is incredibly dynamic and offers multiple ways to use it effectively in PvP. It can immune incoming projectiles like Mortal Coil and Chaos Bolt, and instant abilities like Blind and Kidney Shot. It also removes you as the target or focus target, preventing enemies from attacking or stopping casts immediately.
Blood Fury is an on-use racial that boosts your ranged DPS while active. Pair it with Trueshot to maximize your burst windows. Hardiness grants a passive 10% stun reduction in PvP, allowing you to slip away from danger quicker. Command also gives your pets a 1% damage increase.
Mastery: Sniper Training is extremely valuable for Marksmanship Hunter, increasing the range and damage of your shots. It's your best secondary stat in PvP. Versatility increases both your damage and reduces damage taken, making it essential for PvP survivability. Critical Strike provides burst potential when combined with Trueshot. Penetrating Shots also makes crits more impactful. Haste is the lowest priority stat as MM doesn't benefit as much from faster globals compared to other specs.
