Beast Mastery Hunter DPS Gems, Enchants, and Consumables — The War Within (Season 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.

We highly recommend using Raidbots to sim your character's ideal gems and enchants, as they might differ from our general recommendations.

The best stats for Raiding Beast Mastery Hunters are Haste and Crit, so that is what we will be gemming for.

You should use 1x Culminating Blasphemite, and then Deadly Emerald in all of your other gem slots. Maximizing the Culminating Blasphemite effect is DPS neutral and just not worth the hassle when you get equivalent DPS by just picking one gem.

The best stats for Mythic+ Beast Mastery Hunters are Mastery and Haste, so that is what we will be gemming for.

You should use 1x Culminating Blasphemite, and then Quick Onyx in all of your other gem slots. It is not worth mixing gems in order to maximize the Blasphemite effect for AoE/Mythic+, as Mastery is simply too strong for us.

You should be drinking the Flask of Alchemical Chaos at all times.

Your stat potion should be Tempered Potion. Use these when you will do the most damage with your abilities, likely during your cooldowns and/or Bloodlust/ Heroism. You can also obtain Fleeting Tempered Potion from Cauldrons that can be spawned by Alchemists.

You should keep a stock of Algari Healing Potions to use when at low health, and if you have a Warlock in the group, grab their Healthstones and use them as well. Do not macro these together, they are best used separately! You can also obtain Fleeting Algari Healing Potion from Cauldrons that can be spawned by Alchemists.

Since our secondary stats are stronger per-point than our primary stat, you should be eating secondary stat food at all times, either Beledar's Bounty, Outsider's Provisions, Jester's Board, Empress' Farewell personal food, or the The Sushi Special Feast. They are all identical.

It may also be worth eating "split" Stat Foods, such as Deepfin Patty, because your highest secondary stat may not always be your best one currently, point-for-point. This should be simmed.

In addition, if you can afford it, you should use Crystallized Augment Runes to increase your primary stat. Augment Runes are expensive, and disappear on death, so use them wisely!
