How To Choose Optimal Hunter Talents

By Wayne Allen


Any veteran of World of Warcraft will relate that hunter talents have changed quite a bit, but what hasn't changed is that all talent specs for the Hunter make them effective at leveling to one extent or another. As a player approaches end-game, however, things get less flexible and tough decisions have to be made between possible specs.

Specializing heavily in Beast Mastery is commonly known to be the most efficient way of leveling a hunter, enough that players usually refer it to as 'easy mode.' This tree strengthens a hunter's pet in terms of damage per second and survivability. One disadvantage of Beast Mastery that carries through the game is that it's highly dependent on the hunter pet. If the pet dies, there isn't really a good way to bring it back under heavy pressure.

As of patch 3.2. 2, BM is not considered to be a great specialization for end-game raiding or player versus player. Even an optimally built, excellently equipped beast mastery Hunter is currently going to fall behind Marksmanship and Survival specialized Hunters.

The Marksmanship talent tree is popular in raiding and great for fighting other players. Specializing at least a little in this talent tree will increase the power of your ranged attacks. This fact makes nearly every hunter put about 14 points in Marksmanship. Maxing out Lethal Shots, Careful Aim, Mortal Shots, and Go for the Throat are considered mandatory in any build.

Survival may not be a well-known specialization to level up your hunter, but in the late game, it's considered amongst the best. Some talents are particularly nice utilities in raids, like replenishment, which restores some mana to the raid every time you critical. Explosive shot, likewise, is the most powerful talent in the Survival tree and the main goal of any specialization here.

The Hunter character is one of the most popular classes in World of Warcraft. There are many different builds that can be utilized through the talent tree.
