Welcome to our Beast Mastery Hunter starter guide, which covers everything you need to start playing a new character in Shadowlands. While our other guide pages go into more individual detail, this simple starter guide covers all the basics in one place, whether you're a new Beast Mastery Hunter, a returning player to Shadowlands, hardcore, or casual alike, it's the best place to get a beginners overview on the class. Included are basic talent builds, simplified rotations, stats, legendary recommendations, and more to get you started as quickly as possible.
Please keep in mind that this page is meant to get players started quickly as an introduction, and does not contain much in the way of detailed explanations, mechanics, competitive options, gearing, simulation comparisons, or nuance. For more in-depth information, including all those optimizations and more, check out the complete Beast Mastery Hunter Guide pages linked in the navigation on the left-hand side of the page, and if you're leveling up in Shadowlands, you can take a look at our

About the Author
Hello! I'm
Impakt
, the range DPS officer for
BDGG
, the #2 North American guild. I have been playing WoW for over a decade, and have been a high-end raider since MoP. I currently play Hunter and Warlock for BDGG, but I have played many other classes and specs competitively in past tiers. My primary focus in-game is progression raiding. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or want to chat, the best way to get ahold of me is through Twitter

Best Beast Mastery Hunter Covenant
If all you care about is DPS, the best covenant is between
Night Fae
and
Kyrian
. These are both solid options, but
Night Fae
is better. The difference is small enough though that you could choose either one and not need to feel like you are being suboptimal. For raiding specifically however, I would always recommend
Night Fae
for two reasons. First, larger more powerfull cooldowns are generally better, and second because of the incredibly useful mobility spell
that comes with going Night Fae.

Best Beast Mastery Hunter Legendaries
For Legendaries, Beast Mastery Hunters have two options, depending on how comfortable you are with the specialization.
is technically the optimal DPS legendary for both Raiding and Mythic+, but can be cumbersome and difficult to use correctly.
is only slightly worse, but acts as a passive damage increase to your existing rotation, making it significantly more user-friendly.
for slightly more DPS, but a more complex rotation.
for slightly less DPS, but an easier rotation.
It is important to understand what I mean by "slightly" here - these legendaries are within 1% of each other. If you are a newer player, I would always recommend starting with

Best Beast Mastery Hunter Talents
Beast Mastery in general has a very narrow talent selection. There is only one major row below that will ever change - the level 50 row between
and
. Aspect of the Beast is better for any sort of AoE or cleave, while Bloodshed is slightly better for damage on a primary target. For general use you should go with
, but for some raid encounters that are more single-target focused you could switch to

Beast Mastery Hunter Stat Priority
Agility is by far your most important stat as a Beast Mastery Hunter, which generally means that you will want the highest item level pieces available to you. Besides Agility, you will mainly want to get pieces with Haste and Crit, but your own stat values might change slightly depending on your character's gear and talents. Because of this, we recommend using Raidbots to evaluate upgrades over relying on generic stat priorities to make gearing decisions. More in-depth information about stats can be found in the full
Beast Mastery Gear
and
Stat Priority
guides.
Agility > Haste > Crit > Versatility/Mastery
Agility
: Increases all damage done by native class spells, abilities, and auto shots. Previously one of the weakest stats, but now much more impactful, making raw item level much more important again.
Haste
: Haste increases your passive Focus regeneration and reduces the cooldown of
and
(plus the
talent). Haste also reduces the global cooldown time. The more Haste you have, the smoother the rotation will be. All of your pets inherit your Haste for their attack speed.
Critical Strike
: In addition to extra damage, crit also interacts with the
mechanic, which resets your
cooldown. All of your pets inherit your crit chance.
Mastery
: A simple damage increase to all of your pets (including talents that summon any kind of beast). This also includes AoE damage that comes from your pets such as
and
.
Versatility
: Increases all damage, and reduces damage taken.

Beast Mastery Hunter Enchants and Consumables
Cloak
: There are four possible cloak enchants, all listed here. None of them actually offer any DPS increase as they are all survivability enchants, so you can pick what you value here. Depending on the content you do however, Leech or Avoidance will generally be the best option.
