Counter Shot is your "kick" and your most important bit of utility in Mythic+, used to stop enemy casts for the benefit of the group and especially the tank. It is highly recommended to use a Focus Kick macro for this.

• /stopcasting
• /stopcasting
• /cast [@focus,exists,nodead][@mouseover,exists,nodead] [] Counter Shot

This macro will kick your focus target if you have one, mouseover if you have no Focus target, and your target if you have neither of those.

To quickly set a focus target in hectic scenarios, we also recommend a Focus Mouseover macro.

• /focus [@mouseover]

Make sure that your UI shows your Focus Target's casts clearly, so that you are always able to kick it on cooldown, or in coordination with the rest of your group.

Binding Shot can be used to save your tank in hectic moments by helping him kite mobs and generate some range.

Freezing Trap can be used as an additional stop in place of Intimidation (which we cannot use with no Pet), but it has a slow travel time and you will need to be close to land it before most stunnable casts are finished.

Scatter Shot (mutually exclusive with Binding Shot) can be used as an additional stop in place of Intimidation and Freezing Trap, but you have to be within 20 yards of the mob you are stopping. It will also remove any DoTs like Master Marksman, giving it a small DPS cost.

Feign Death can not only be used to drop aggro, but also negate certain casts and channels on you. In some cases, these mechanics will simply retarget someone else in the group, but occasionally the mechanic will be entirely negated with huge benefits. If you notice a cast or effect on you, try to Feign it!

Tranquilizing Shot can negate beneficial Enrage and Magic effects from enemy targets.

Tar Trap can be used to aid your tank in kiting by slowing mobs.

Marksmanship Hunter has no way of dealing with the Afflicted Affix, as it has no friendly dispel. The best you can do is remind your teammates to do it.

Marksmanship Hunter is well-equipped to deal with Incorporeal. You can pre- Freezing Trap one of the circles that spawn, and then use Scare Beast (Talent) on another and solo the affix every time.

Marksmanship Hunter can use Disengage to immediately break and move out of Entangling, thanks to our Posthaste Talent.

Marksmanship Hunter is fully mobile, and can run around and intentionally soak the Storming tornados and help your group not have to deal with them, since other Ranged are usually movement-limited, and melee do not want to risk being knocked out of melee range.

Marksmanship Hunter can use Binding Shot and Tar Trap to best deal with Spiteful Shades. Consider speccing into Entrapment to make your Tar Trap even more useful for this.

Marksmanship Hunter has Tranquilizing Shot to deal with Raging. We do not recommend spamming it mindlessly, but instead it helps to know which mobs need CC in a pack and preparing to enrage-dispel those when they hit 30% HP.

Marksmanship Hunter has nothing special to deal with Bolstering, but it is extremely important to always be hitting the highest HP target in a pack on Bolstering weeks. We highly recommend this WeakAura to help mark out this target in hectic situations.

Marksmanship Hunter can use Aspect of the Turtle when a lot of mobs are dying to prevent stacks of Bursting being applied.

Marksmanship Hunter can use High Explosive Trap (Talent) to knock mobs out of Sanguine and reposition them.
