Marksmanship Hunters in the Current Meta
Marksmanship Hunter is a consistently underrated Hunter specialization with enormous burst and crowd control potential.
The Marksmanship damage rotation seems simple at first but leaves a lot of space for skill expression and outplay potential. There is almost no "ramp" in the damage rotation, which combined with the longest range in the game makes Marksmanship Hunters lethal when switching targets, even when they do not commit long cooldowns.
Once you are comfortable setting up your burst so that it does not get interrupted, timing your crowd control windows, and maximizing your consistent damage outside of cooldowns, Marksmanship is an incredibly fun and rewarding specialization.
Marksmanship rewards opportunistic and aggressive play. You win by setups, bursts, and punishing enemies that misuse defensives or position poorly. Marksmanship is not a spec that wins by attrition or dampening, and an aggressive playstyle is how it competes with other specializations that may be more forgiving when it comes to defensive play or crowd control.

High sustained damage when freecasting
High burst damage and cleave when using

Can break crowd control while bursting with
Volley/
Salvo
Marksmanship Hunter Hotfixes in Patch 11.2 (The War Within Season 3)
13 August 2025
Marksmanship
- Fixed an issue causing Precise Shots to not grant its global cooldown reduction effect if its consumption was spell-queued after Aimed Shot.
Marksmanship Hunter Changes in Patch 11.2 (The War Within Season 3)
Hunter
- New Talent:
Harmonize - Pet damage increased by 4%.
- Developers' notes:
Explosive Shot hasn't found a great home in Beast Mastery's kit, so we're offering an opportunity to trade it for some pet damage.
Blackrock Munitions now also increases the pet damage bonus of
Harmonize by 2%.
Moment of Opportunity no longer has an internal cooldown.
Hero Talents: Dark Ranger
- Several talents have changed positions in the talent tree.
- New Talent:
Umbral Reach -
Black Arrow periodic damage increased by 100% and
Bleak Powder now applies
Black Arrow's periodic effect to all enemies it damages. If
Bleak Powder damages 2 or more enemies, gain
Beast Cleave/
Trick Shots if talented.
- Developers' notes:
Black Arrow can have a confusing priority in AOE scenarios for both Marksmanship and Beast Mastery.
Umbral Reach should give
Black Arrow a clearer place in your AOE rotation without completely circumventing the need to use
Multi-Shot.
- Soul Drinker has been updated - Now increases
Black Arrow's damage by 8% and
Bleak Powder's damage by 10%.
Withering Fire has been updated - Now prioritizes units without
Black Arrow's periodic effect.
Black Arrow's periodic damage is now a rolling periodic.
Bleak Powder damage reduced by 25%.
Bleak Powder now deals reduced damage beyond 8 targets.
Bleak Powder now correctly scales with Mastery: Sniper Training and Mastery: Master of Beasts.
Phantom Pain damage share now affects up to 8 targets.
- The following talents have been removed: Embrace the Shadows, Shadow Surge
The Bell Tolls' previous effect is now baseline to
Black Arrow and has been updated - Firing a
Black Arrow increases all damage dealt by 3% for 12 seconds. Multiple instances of this effect may overlap.
Black Arrow damage reduced by 23%.
Phantom Pain damage replication is now 15% (was 24%). Damage is now replicated to up to 8 targets.
Hero Talents: Sentinel
Lunar Storm now resets the cooldown of
Rapid Fire and
Wildfire Bomb when it becomes available.
- Developers' notes: This should help to reduce the cognitive load around
tracking
Lunar Storm while providing some more excitement.
Marksmanship
- Several talents have changed positions in the talent tree.
- New Talent:
Unmatched Precision - The damage bonus of
Precise Shots is increased by 20/40%.
- New Talent:
Light Ammo -
Trick Shots now causes
Aimed Shot and
Rapid Fire to ricochet to 2 additional targets.
Aspect of the Hydra's damage bonus is increased by 15%.
Shrapnel Shot has been redesigned -
Explosive Shot has a 100% chance to grant
Lock and Load.
- Developers' notes: We've heard feedback that players have really enjoyed
the gameplay of the Liberation of Undermine set bonus. We're hoping
Precision Detonation and the new
Shrapnel Shot will strike a similar chord.
- Improved Spotter's Mark renamed to
Avian Specialization and has been updated - Now also teaches your Eagle to Fetch loot from nearby corpses.
Ohn'ahran Winds has been updated - When your Eagle applies
Spotter's Mark, it has a 100% chance to apply a
Spotter's Mark to up to 1 additional nearby enemy at 100% effectiveness.
- Developers' notes: Our goal with this change is to increase the talent's consistency and give it a clearer niche.
Precise Shots has been updated - Now also reduces the global cooldown of affected spells by 50%.
- Developers' notes - Our goal with this change is to help make
Precise Shots spending feel more snappy, responsive, and exciting in all situations.
Kill Zone has been updated - Line of sight ignoring effect now lingers for 3 seconds upon removal.
Calling the Shots has been updated - Now reduces the cooldown of
Trueshot by 30 seconds.
- Developers' notes:
Calling the Shots has been historically inconsistent, so we're simplifying it to increase its reliability.
Moving Target has been updated -
Aimed Shot damage bonus reduced to 8%.
- Developers' notes: We're moving some of
Moving Target's
Aimed Shot damage into
Aimed Shot's baseline power.
- All damage dealt reduced by 10%.
Aimed Shot damage increased by 10%.
Lock and Load chance to trigger increased to 10% (was 8%) and it now benefits from bad luck protection.
Precision Detonation damage bonus increased to 40% (was 25%).
Trick Shots effectiveness reduced to 60% (was 75%).
Aspect of the Hydra and
Ohn'ahran Winds additional target seek range increased to 12 yards (was 8 yards).
Unerring Vision no longer affects
Calling the Shots.
- Liberation of Undermine 4 set has been updated -
Explosive Shot effectiveness reduced to 125% (was 300%) and no longer triggers
Shrapnel Shot.
Bullseye is no longer a 2-point node.
- Fixed several targeting issues with
Ohn'ahran Winds.
- The following talents have been removed: Killer Mark, Quickdraw
