Survival Hunter TBC Pre-Patch BiS Gear Guide
On this page, you will find the best in slot items for your Survival Hunter during the pre-patch of the Burning Crusade.
Gearing Strategy for Survival Hunters in the TBC Pre-Patch
While this list focuses on the best gear possible for players who have been continuously playing Classic, the time we have in the pre-patch is extremely short, so not all this gear will be able to be acquired. Consider some of the alternatives listed including PvP gear, as the ranking requirement is removed from High Warlord/Grand Marshal gear.
Please consider checking out our Classic era pre-raid BiS gearing list as well when figuring out what gear you are looking for, as most of the pieces listed on there are easily farmable.
Naxxramas Hunter BiS
This is the gear we recommend for Hunters in the Naxxramas patch. Naxxramas is the final destination of the original World of Warcraft, and as such carries the best gear and the most difficult bosses.
Hunters Tier 3, Cryptstalker Armor is perhaps one of the most iconic Hunter sets of all time, and is excellent for Hunters for both WoW Classic and going into Outlands. The Naxxramas tier gear and equivalent off-pieces will last you all the way until level 70, and even at 70 will take some time to get replaced.
