WoW Forever Hunter PvE: Talents, BiS, Races, Profs

Q: Which tree tanks dungeon trash?

Beast Mastery on beta reads. Marksmanship is the boss tree. Survival is utility. All provisional.

Q: Best race for Hunter lockouts?

Orc Blood Fury and pet damage. Troll Beast Slaying. Human is the new Alliance combo. Undead cannot be Hunter.

Q: What is the Master Hunter's Spellsword?

A Nesingwary rewritten reward. Still keep a ranged weapon current for Auto Shot.

Q: Engineering for Hunter raids?

Engineering + Enchanting is the Ultimate PvE pair on the live offer.

Q: Are pet families listed?

Still provisional. Classic families are a reference only. Hub holds the race matrix.

Do not split BM and MM while leveling for raids. Pick the tree you want at 60.

Lone Wolf exists on beta dumps. Sources disagree whether it sits in Marksmanship or Survival. Ignore it for pet-tanked 5-mans.

Milestone math: calculator. Recheck when Blizzard posts Hunter.

Ranged weapons into Hall of Thanes and raids

Hunter PvE is a ranged weapon every 5 levels. Nesingwary's rewritten rewards include the Master Hunter's Spellsword. Keep a bow or gun current anyway.

Week 1. Quest ranged. Week-1 bows.

Weeks 2 to 3. Hall of Thanes (13-18) through Shaper's Terrace (58-60). 1 run per dungeons for quests. Dungeon ranged.

From 9 December. Barrow Deeps (10), Hyjal Summit (20), Onyxia. Mid-50s that week misses lockouts. Raid carries.

Open gear offer →Hunter selected, pet on the bar.

Scopes for Hunter lockouts

Hunter raids want Engineering scopes and Enchanting on the bow. Ultimate PvE on the live offer is that pair. Leatherworking Devilsaur sits in an alt package. Open a card to land on Hunter.
