BiS List for Marksmanship Hunter

This list contains the highest DPS setup from most sources for Marksmanship Hunter.

In most non-Tier slots, a 447 iLvl Craft is technically optimal since you can customize the secondary stats to your liking. A few 450 iLvl Slots from Mythic Raid are the exception.

447 iLvl Great Vault items from Mythic+ are not listed here, as they are not targetable due to the RNG nature of the Vault. Mythic+ items are included at Item Level 441.

Throughout this page, we will regularly refer to the importance of simming yourself on Raidbots, as it is an indispensable aspect of optimizing your character.

While we do offer generic sim charts for Trinkets, this should not be a replacement for simming yourself, at least not if you want to minmax sub-1%!

If you are new to simming and Raidbots, check out our detailed guide below.

The Tier Set is comprised of 5 items, all carrying the Ashen Predator's moniker. Unique DPS bonuses are unlocked when wearing 2 and 4 pieces from the set:

1. Hunter Marksmanship 10.1 Class Set 2pc — Arcane Shot and Multi-Shot deal 10% increased damage and have an 8% chance to grant the Deathblow effect.
2. Hunter Marksmanship 10.1 Class Set 4pc — Kill Shot deals 15% increased damage and reduces the cooldown of Aimed Shot and Rapid Fire by 1.5 sec.

The Tier Set Bonus is mandatory for competitive play, and you should prioritize obtaining it. You can use the Inspiration Catalyst to convert regular items (from Mythic+, for example) into Tier Items.

You only need 4 pieces out of 5 to get both set bonuses. We recommend you get all items except for the Legs. Check out the BiS List for more information.

With Crafted Items, you can craft items with customizable stats in nearly all slots with up to iLvl 447. This means that for most non-tier slots, Crafted items are optimal.

If you want to learn more about the Crafting system in general and potentially craft your own items for less Gold, check out our dedicated page below.

This is our general recommendation for the best Crafting Order. It goes for Embellishments first, as they offer the largest increase per Spark, and then for powerful iLvl gains.

1. Acidic Hailstone Treads
2. Flame-Touched Chain (with Toxified Armor Patch or Shadowflame-Tempered Armor Patch)
3. Bow of the Dragon Hunters
4. Signet of Titanic Insight (with Alchemical Flavor Pocket)
5. Ring-Bound Hourglass
6. From this point, we strongly recommend you sim yourself to work out future crafts.

These are generic simulations from Bloodmallet, giving you a rough overview of strong Marksmanship Hunter Trinkets. It is not a replacement for simming yourself, but can still offer a quick overview.
