Beast Mastery Hunter DPS Gear and Best in Slot — Dragonflight 10.0.2

Welcome to our Gearing Page for Beast Mastery Hunter. This section will cover everything you need to know about equipping your character correctly.

For more detailed information on Stat Priority, please visit our Stats page.

For more detailed information on Gems and Enchants, please visit our Gems and Enchants page.

We also have a page dedicated to simulations for different aspects of your character. These can be found on our Simulations page.

At this stage in the game, and despite the stat priority, there are so many variables and so many layers of optimization that you can apply to your character, that there is no way for a guide or anything else to tell you exactly what gear you should wear. This is why we always recommend simulating your own character using Raidbots. The website can help you choose items, trinkets, set bonuses, and so on.

For more information on where to get Valor from, how it works, weekly caps and more, see our Valor page.

Beast Mastery Hunters should upgrade the items with Valor that will benefit the most in the moment. The easiest way to figure out what is best for your specific character is by using Raidbots' Droptimizer. You can select "+12 Weekly Chest" as a replacement for the highest item level Valor upgrade. Below is a list of item slots that you might want to upgrade first.

• Your weapon is by far your strongest item, and should always be the top priority to upgrade.
• Trinkets have a major impact on your DPS, particularly on-use ones.
• Aside from this, the best scaling items tend to be Helms, Chests, and Leg items. Wrists and Cloaks are low-priority as they have relatively little Agility on them.

While we heavily recommend simming yourself, you can find some of our general simulations on the dedicated page below.

Many people have a tendency to overthink the distribution of their secondary stats. An important thing to remember is that a higher quantity of stats is nearly always better than a better quality of stats. Because of this, wearing higher item level gear with worse stats tends to be better than lower item level gear with great stats. Keep this in mind when considering gear. For more stats information, please refer to our dedicated page.

Note that a lot of items from Mythic0 Dungeons are basically identical in terms of performance, as secondary stats are the only thing differentiating them, and all secondaries except for Versatility are competitive.

For this reason do not worry about collecting the specific items in this BiS list. Item level and sockets matter far more than secondaries, and with the exception of Trinkets and Versatility items, any item on this list can be substituted for another with a negligible or non-existent difference in DPS.

We have also taken the liberty of pruning the list in such a way that as many items as possible come from the same dungeons, where different items are essentially equal.

This list was crafted on simulations featuring all non-Raid gear, excluding RNG-dependent Crafted Gear (discussed below). We have limited the amount of crafted items to a realistic amount that you can obtain before the raid launches, as Crafted Gear is heavily time-gated.

There are two timegated elements to Preraid Crafting. One is Spark of Ingenuity, which we get one of from the Dragonflight Campaign. Others come over time. This is not enough to craft more than a single piece of 392 iLvl gear by the time that the raid releases. Use it wisely!

Importantly, bosses at the end of Mythic0 Dungeons have a chance to drop Titan Training Matrix IV. These are used by Leatherworkers to craft blue gear up to iLvl 382, 10 iLvls higher than Mythic0 drops. You should use these wisely to craft 382 items such as Schematic: P.E.W. x2 at a higher item level than Mythic0, to be prepared for raid. All of these items are Leatherworking-based, unless otherwise noted. You should focus on the following slots:

1. Firstly, focus on slots that you have yet to upgrade to 372 after running all of the Mythic0 Dungeons. This is more important than slot considerations.
2. Weapon ( Schematic: P.E.W. x2 from Engineering)
3. Helm/Chest/Legs
4. Shoulders/Gloves/Belt/Boots
5. Cloak/Wrists
6. Neck/Rings

You should really sim yourself to craft with the optimal stats, but it is difficult to go wrong with the top two stats from our Stats priority page.

When you craft almost any Dragon Isles Item, you have the opportunity to add an Embellishment. You can only have 2 Embellished pieces of gear equipped at a time, and these can either be items that are already Embellished by default, such as Pattern: Acidic Hailstone Treads, or they can be any two crafted items that you have manually attached an Embellishment to while Crafting. Below, we have ranked the best Embellishments to add to your gear.

1. Pattern: Bronzed Grip Wrappings (Weapon Only)
2. Potion Absorption Inhibitor
3. Blue Silken Lining
4. Toxified Armor Patch (when used alongside the Decayed Pattern Embellished Boots)

Over time, you will be able to get Spark of Ingenuity, which lets you craft special items.

Once you have obtained the recipe, which drops from the Vault of the Incarnates Raid, and if you have not had a weapon drop from the raid yet, we recommend you craft Schematic: Sophisticated Problem Solver. It only costs 1 Spark, unlike Bow of the Dragon Hunters which costs 2.

Additional Sparks can be used to craft special Embellished Gear, which is Unique Crafted gear with special procs such as Pattern: Scale Rein Grips. Once these can be simulated, we aim to update this page with some of the best proc items you can craft, but mostly you should focus on filling holes in your existing gear.

To make this list, we have looked at all viable "BiS"-tier items from Mythic Dungeons, and counted out which dungeons drop the most of them. For the most part, we have focused on excluding Versatility items, and we have filtered down to the strongest Trinkets. When equal, we have focused on items with a higher stat budget, but we list the items that drop from the dungeons so that you can make a decision based on your own gearing situation. The baseline ranking assumes that you have none of the BiS items to start with.

We include ALL Dragonflight Dungeons in this list, including ones that are not available on Mythic+. Keep in mind that a "bad" dungeon at Mythic+ will vastly outperform any non-Mythic+ Dungeon, as item level is nearly always king.

In cases where there is one clear BiS item that drops from the dungeon, we have Bolded that slot in the table, so that you know where to find your absolute BiS piece in certain slots, where those exist.
