Marksmanship Hunter PvP Guide in Battle for Azeroth (Shadowlands Pre-Patch 9.0.2)

Marksmanship Hunters are a strong Hunter specialization right now. They are unique because, depending on your playstyle, you can AoE a team down with spells like Multi-Shot, or you can have strong single-target damage with spells like Arcane Shot and Aimed Shot. On top of all of this damage, they also have strong crowd control abilities.

• Multiple tools versus teams with DoTs
• Decent mobility
• Strong burst damage

• Long burst cooldown
• Weak to teams with multiple stuns
• Need help from teammates to land crowd control
