WotLK Classic Marksmanship Hunter Gear and Best in Slot

The items in the list below are considered to be best in slot for Marksmanship Hunters in Phase 3 / Tier 9. Almost all of the items in this list will drop from Hardmodes in Trial of the Crusader 25-man. A couple from of items can come from Ulduar 10/25-man Hardmodes (HM), or can now be bought from the new currency Sidereal Essence from Titan Rune Hardmode Dungeons.

The power gap between these items and their alternatives is rather big. This goes especially for the Heroic version (item level 258) of the T9 set, as we share our tokens for it with Warriors and Shamans. In addition to that, per lockout there can only be a maximum of four hardmode tokens, which are again randomly rolled between classes. The T9-set will have a 232, a 245 and a 258 item level version, it is recommended to stick with the 245 item level version of it until you get the tokens for 258 item level. For more information, check out the Tier 9 set guide here on Icy Veins.

*Please note that using 4-set T8 is an option for Marksmanship Hunters, and is quite competitive if you do not have access to all of the 252 items. Always sim your character for the best results, but the tier 8 set is a strong set until you can get better gear from tier 9.

The items on the following list for Tier 7 come from WotLK Raids and Emblem of Valor-Vendors Harold Winston, Arcanist Adurin (Alliance), and Magister Brasael (Horde) in Dalaran.
