Beast Mastery Hunter DPS Gems, Enchants, and Consumables — Shadowlands Pre-Patch 9.0.1

This section specifically covers the optimal gems, enchants, food, and flasks to use for your character. To get a more detailed rundown of the different stats for Beast Mastery Hunter, please visit our dedicated Stats page.

You should be using one Leviathan's Eye of Agility and one Kraken's Eye of Agility in a socket, and Deadly Lava Lazuli Gems in all other sockets.

Gouged Eye of N'Zoth can be used to insert sockets into any Patch 8.3 item that does not have one. It is purchased for 25,000 Corrupted Mementos, which are acquired through Horrific Visions. You should use this on items that you plan to use for a long time, and a wide variety of situations.

Slot	Enchantment
Rings	Enchant Ring - Accord of Critical Strike Enchant Ring - Seal of Critical Strike (much cheaper)
Weapon	Enchant Weapon - Gale-Force Striking

*Weapon Enchants are extremely close in performance and the best one can vary wildly with your gear, even beyond our generic recommendations above. We recommend simulating your enchant options using RaidBots.com for the best results.

Greater Flask of the Currents should be used for raids.

• Your default single-target potion should be Potion of Unbridled Fury.
• For AoE/Mythic+ purposes where you can be in melee, we recommend Potion of Empowered Proximity, as long as there are 4 targets or above.
• For AoE/Mythic+ purposes where you can not be in melee, we recommend Superior Battle Potion of Agility.

Warlock Healthstones and Abyssal Healing Potion should be used when at low health.

You should eat the 131 Agility feasts Famine Evaluator And Snack Table whenever possible. Otherwise, eat the 93 Critical Strike food, Mech-Dowel's "Big Mech".

If you can afford it, you should use Battle-Scarred Augment Runes to increase your primary stat. Since there is a finite amount of these runes available, you should make sure to use them wisely and to stock up on them for when you need them.

Starting in patch 8.3 you can also use the re-usable Lightning-Forged Augment Rune to increase your primary stat by an equal amount.
