Great vid! I've been playing BM for years now, and I never even thought about the trick with using Barbed Shot on different mobs, but it makes perfect sense.
Amazing amazing video thank you so much for the detailed run down of this spec, exactly what I was looking for. One question I am new to hunter and I see you use a lot of macros im assuming they help a good amount is there anyway you can share your macros with me ? Again thank you for this video and I hope your channel gets more recognition!
Thank you so much for the compliment. Means alot. Here are some of the macro's that I am using. #showtooltip Barbed Shot /cast Barbed Shot /use Claw(Basic Attack) /use Bite(Basic Attack) /use Smack(Basic Attack) Then replace the barbed shot with any ability to make your pet attack quicker. #showtooltip Freezing Trap /cast [@cursor] Freezing Trap To make throwing your wildspirits/ freezing trap/ flare quicker. Hope this helps you out. If you have more questions let me know.
Sorry for not responding earlier. Depending on the content you want different pets. Get a clefthoof for solo content and get a raptor for pvp. The same raptor or spiritbeast you can use for mythic plus.
So maybe I missed it in the video but what slot did you put your covenant specific leggo on? I am rolling night fae and trying to get back into the groove and trying to figure that part out. Thanks in advance and your video helped a ton!
Hello Jared, glad to hear that the video helped alot. For the covenant specific legendary I chose to put it on my neckslot. This is so it doesnt interfere with legendaries from different specs. Just dont put it on a tierpiece slot and you are good. Hope that helps you out :)
something i dont see in any guild (which makes me think it really doesnt matter) is a pet "guild" is there a best pet combo? or is it really just whatever you want?
For pvp go for a Raptor. This will give the enemy reduced healing. For m+ or raiding I prefer to go with a clefthoof when I need to do bloodlust. Also clefthoof is great for solo content. If I dont have to do bloodlust I go for a spirit beast. This will buff your max HP, give you a 20% damage reduction and passive heals. Hope that answers your question.
Do you have any advice on a rotation helper? I’ve played BM for a long time as my original main, but I switched to a mage for a while and just recently came back to BM. I am 270 ilvl, have a bunch of bis items, have both 291 legendaries(unity belt) and Rylakstalker feet. I sim my stuff and I have an addon telling me proper rotation, but I feel I’m lacking in dps. For instance a BM Hunter with not as high gear is doing just as much dps sometimes. I’m running the talents needed and have 4 piece tier set. My conduit tree is setup according to wowhead. So it has to be me lol. I do everything to keep frenzy stacked and beast cleave in multi target lol. I’m a lost cause I get, but I’m wanting to improve my numbers that reflect my gameplay. I’m not the best but I’m good. Any advice on my stay %s or even an addon to help me? Great video btw
Hello Brad, sadly I do not have a rotation helper/addon for you which can increase your dps. I have a Weakaura which can help. You can find it in the description and see how it works at the end of the video. Most of the BM hunters I see are using there barbed shot on 1 target and that way they keep frenzy up. But see barbed shot as a damage over time DOT. So try and using it on different mobs so you have multiple bleeds rolling of different targets. This will greatly increase your dps. Furthermore with the four piece it's important to only use multi-shot to get beast cleave. And then use cobra shot to get kill command faster of cooldown. Lastly are you using your cooldowns on cooldown? I see so many players holding there cd's for that "right" moment. Don't do that. Just fire them off on cooldown. This will net you the most damage in the end most of the time. I hope this answer helps you out. If not let me know.
Hello! I'm a beginner in the class, and I would like to receive opinions from those who are more experienced.. my question would be about which bow/crossbow to use, I dropped The Philosopher and the Yasahm the Riftbreaker, both on the same iLVL. which one would you use? I ask for the bonus that yasahm gives, but every time I sim my character, it says that the philosopher is better, but the bonus of the other seems to be very good. Thanks!!
Hello Pamela, for me the Riftbreaker never dropped. But I would go with whichever of the bows sims better. But how big is difference in sims? Because if it is really close then go with the one you personally prefer. And how is the damage of the riftbreaker at the end of a dungeon? Check details and see if it any good. Because sometimes it sounds great but it is lackluster.
Hello there I have a question I am new to using a beast master and recently got up to level 60 what pets would be the best to get if I may ask for Raiding/Mythic+ also I subbed to the channel man :D
Thank you for your support. For pets I prefer to take a spirit beast as a defensive option and when I do not need to bloodlust. And a raptor or clefthoof as a bloodlust pet.
for the feedback i would say, u need to cut more. so u keep the interest of the viewer and dont just record and cut 1-2 parts but nice video, thx for helping me
I'm already top deeps in raid but I've been doing my rotation wrong I've been multishoting at the end and Barbing the same target im going to see if this rotation helps. Also been using dream for keys but going to try korayn for keys.... My only question is should I bring my vers down from 19 % and haste up from like 17? I don't know if haste is stronger then vers
In mythic + I would say really get your haste up alot higher. Aim for 25-30% and therefore dropping vers is fine. Better to drop Mastery if you can. For raiding you take alot of unavoidable damage and because hunters are squisy higher vers is not bad. So for raiding I am not sure. I dont raid alot myself. Hope it answers a bit of your question.
In my own opinion, pve solo, clefthoof is awesome. The passive armor increase and increased healing makes it incredibly tanky. As for PvP and PvE in a group, spiders are awesome. They have Web Spray, 50% snare with 60% uptime. Its amazing. Helps with keeping people/mobs off you. I'm not a pro hunter, just my general experience. Both Spiders and Clefthoofs are Ferocity, giving you up to 15% lifesteal and Bloodlust. As a side note, spiders tend to have a low profile so they stay out of the way, visually.
I see us getting nerfed when double legos, I’m a causal raiders/M+ player and a key I ran last night I was absolutely pumping during wild spirits window (I run rylaks) with the additional Lego it’s gonna be nuts
You have to use the animal companion talent. And to get the same pet you will need to catch a second one and put it in the first slot of your stable. Hope that answers your question.
It is still viable although not as much. Luckely upcomming reset BM will get buffed again. Bm is strong in single target, but does not do that well in AOE. Hopefully the new changes will help with that.
I been playing BM since shadowlands started and it’s not dead. Sure aoe isn’t great, but single target I can keep up with warlocks, enchantment shamans etc. may not be top dps all the time cause those specs are really strong right now but I range from top 1-5 in damage, and I don’t even have tier yet. Also this Tuesday we are getting buffed.
Hi there I need your help I still have a problem with my DPS and DPS is Low than my gear. You can see my ilvl 269 to 270 name Of my tool bluedog. If you my comment please help me out I about to quit to play. Thanks
Hello Sonny, what level keys are you doing and how much damage are you doing overall at the end of the dungeon? Just so I have an indication on how much you are doing. Furthermore which covenant are you playing and which legendary are you running. Lastely at the end of a dungeon run what are you top 5 damage dealing abilities?
I’m sorry for late response my covenant is night fae. legendary I use rylakstalker’s greater and I run mythic key 16 now all 5 dungeon run 15 and 16k only
@sonny 15-16k overall at the dungeon is not bad for BM hunter. If you want higher numbers you will have to play Survival or Marksman. But if you dont like that then just keep enjoying BM. You are not doing bad.
Allright macro's are important so try the following: Step 1: download curseforge to your computer Step 2: download elvui and unpack it in your addons folder. (There are alot of guides on how to do this) Step 3: in curseforge download the addon Weakauras Step 4: go to wago.io and look for Luxthos BM hunter and copy that information. And paste that in weakauras in game. Then you will have a nice base setup for your UI. Hope this helps you out.

Is there any diference about pets? Do I have to tame an especific pet family?

Does diminishing return only affect the crit you get through your equipment or also the one you receive thanks to talents and skills?
I am sorry I do not have an answer for you. I am just not sure.
realy nice video man and very detailed ( can u link the UI man is realy nice and clean)
Thank you very much. The UI you can download on wago.io. If you type in BM Hunter Luxthos you will find it.

yo man are a legend
Thank you so very much :)
I see us getting nerfed when double legos,
I’m a causal raiders/M+ player and a key I ran last night I was absolutely pumping during wild spirits window (I run rylaks) with the additional Lego it’s gonna be nuts
Yeah I can see that happening. I hope not because we dont offer to much in AOE. So it balances out a bit.
Nope we getting buffed lol
*Receives aoe dmg buff*
How to get the same pets
You have to use the animal companion talent. And to get the same pet you will need to catch a second one and put it in the first slot of your stable. Hope that answers your question.
is BM even viable now? It seems as its dead compared to Survival or MM and has a hard time keeping up with other specs. I havn't played it since 9.1.5
It is still viable although not as much. Luckely upcomming reset BM will get buffed again. Bm is strong in single target, but does not do that well in AOE. Hopefully the new changes will help with that.

you can never reach 40% crit and 30% haste and 30% versa without raiding on mythic... ps: with 2 legg this gameplay gonna change for sure.
Hi there I need your help I still have a problem with my DPS and DPS is Low than my gear.

Furthermore which covenant are you playing and which legendary are you running. Lastely at the end of a dungeon run what are you top 5 damage dealing abilities?
I’m sorry for late response my covenant is night fae. legendary I use rylakstalker’s greater and I run mythic key 16 now all 5 dungeon run 15 and 16k only
The 2nd problem I have than I’m not good for computer and don’t know how setup macros
@sonny 15-16k overall at the dungeon is not bad for BM hunter. If you want higher numbers you will have to play Survival or Marksman. But if you dont like that then just keep enjoying BM. You are not doing bad.
Allright macro's are important so try the following:

Helpful, but I am a smooth brain gorilla and spam everything on cooldown. I hate rotations and being forced to play a particular way. Oh well.
If it works then don't fix it :)
Rotations are just if you want to maximize your DMG you can click push whatever you want, doesnt matter aswell if you dont want to push any keys :)
the tier set makes no sense at all. not the tier 4 at least. Cobra shot has 0 second cd why would it need 40% off cd : P
Yeah that part of the tier set makes no sense xD
