This page won't be updated for Shadowlands Pre-Patch and may be out of date.

I'm Moofz. I main Hunter and do both Mythic+ and raiding at a high level. I write both the Marksmanship Hunter guide and the Beast Mastery Hunter guide along with most Hunter-related content and news for Wowhead. Sometimes I stream raids and dungeons on Twitch. I've also commentated multiple Race to World First events, Keystone Master events and other Mythic+ content over the past couple of years. Feel free to message me via Twitter or find me in the Trueshot Lodge with any Hunter questions or inquiries.

Best Azerite Traits for Marksmanship HunterRecommended Traits for Tier 1 and Tier 2

Чувство ритма - Increases Haste after Быстрая стрельба finishes channeling. It also syncs up well with our Меткий выстрелs, making our windows a bit cleaner. Strong in both single target but loses a bit of value in AoE.

Верный глаз - While Меткий выстрел is active, you gain Critical Strike rating every sec, stacking up to 10 times. With the changes to our focus, Trueshot has lost some value. Unerring Vision gives Trueshot a little kick, making it a decent cooldown.

Средоточие огня - Increases Быстрая стрельба damage. Each shot of Rapid Fire has a chance to refund additional Focus. This trait is decent in single target and is very strong in single target and in AoE.

Буйные стрелы - Increases Быстрая стрельба damage per shot fired. Прицельный выстрел has a 15% chance to reset the cooldown of Быстрая стрельба. This trait is decent in single target and is very strong in AoE. This trait becomes better when paired with Обтекаемость.

Механическое сердцеПесчаный вихрьRecommended Traits for Tier 2

Переполняющая мощь - Provides a great deal of passive haste, great in both single target and AoE.

Нестабильное пламя - Your abilities grant Critical Strike for a short period of time and it stacks. This trait gives us a solid amount of steady Crit.

Круговерть стихий - Gives passive boosts to a random secondary stat for a short period of time. Very solid option if Overwhelming Power isn't available.

Вытягивание крови - Gives a passive boost to Mastery along with some Leech. Very solid option with a bit of survivability tied in.

Recommended Traits for Tier 3

Хитрость и притворство - This is a Marksman specific Tier 3 trait. The shield that it gives us when we Притвориться мертвым can be used as an on-demand defensive. The added cooldown reduction to Притвориться мертвым is another bonus as well, especially in Mythic+.

Вампирская скорость - This trait works anytime something dies around you. That includes Mythic+ mobs, adds during a raid fight, mobs during open world questing, etc. The heal is a decent amount and procs fairly often which can be very useful.

Резонирующий щит - This is essentially a mini Придаз, величайшее творение Ксаварика shield. It's small, but it negates the damage and is preventative rather than reactionary like most of the other traits.

Stacking Traits

The trait stacks intuitively, and its damage is replicated at full power, every time (Example: Trait 1 adds 100 dmg. Trait 2 adds 100 dmg, Trait 3 adds 100 dmg). Most traits with a singular effect act in this way. Traits that provide a proc of some sort do not increase their proc rate, but only stack the damage of the effect when it does proc.

Often times, when a trait has multiple effects, the trait will replicate its damage effect but not its resource effect (Example: Trait 1 adds 100 dmg and provides 1 resource, Trait 2 adds 100 dmg, Trait 3 adds 100 dmg). A primary example of this would be the Средоточие огня trait. It will duplicate Быстрая стрельба’s damage component, but not the % chance to gain additional Focus.

Season 2 Changes
With the start of Season 2 and the coming of Battle of Dazar'alor, pieces that previously had four rings will now have five. This new ring comes before the Ring 1 and offer two different spec traits for each specialization. Note that Items from Uldir weren't updated with this change.

Ring 0 contains Spec powers and is the first section available on each item and will likely be available to select as soon as you acquire a given piece of gear, contain traits based on your class specs. This ring is a new feature, found on Armor starting with Season 2, and requires only 15 levels on your Heart of Azeroth to be unlocked regardless of the gear.

Ring 1 contains Spec/Zone powers and is the second section available on each item and will likely be available to select as soon as you acquire a given piece of gear, contain traits based on your class specs and source of the trait.

Ring 2 contain Role powers, based on the roles your class can perform. It is only found on epic-level gear (340 or higher). Lower-level armor won't have this ring.

Ring 3 contains Defensive/Utility powers and is the last set of choices available in the piece;

Final Ring always has Азеритовое усиление, which increases the item level of the armor piece it is in by 5 item level. The effect, in turn, increases the power from all previous rings.

RaidbotsAzerite Trait TiersClass Traits

Твердая рука - Верный выстрел increases the damage of your next Прицельный выстрел against the target by X, stacking up to 5 times. Lasts 15 sec and refreshed with each Верный выстрел. This trait acts as a debuff on whatever target you use Верный выстрел on. It is great on pure single target but loses value as multiple mobs are introduced and target swapping occurs.

Средоточие огня - Быстрая стрельба deals an additional X damage over its duration, and each shot has a 30% chance to generate 2 additional Focus. This trait is almost a requirement for us, especially in AoE situations. It helps our Focus generation a fair bit. When stacking this trait, the damage is added but the % chance to generate additional Focus does not change. This trait gains value with Обтекаемость.

Верный глаз - While Меткий выстрел is active you gain X Critical Strike rating every sec, stacking up to 10 times. This adds another dynamic to Trueshot making it a slightly better cooldown. This trait gains value with Подготовка к выстрелам.

Быстрая перезарядка - Залпs that damage more than 3 targets fire an additional wave of bullets, dealing X damage and reducing the cooldown of your Aspects by 1 sec. This trait is very strong in AoE scenarios but useless in pure single target scenarios.

Буйные стрелы - Increases Быстрая стрельба damage, this damage starts lower and increases per shot fired. Прицельный выстрел has a 15% chance to reset the cooldown of Быстрая стрельба. This trait is one of our best in single target and by far the best Marksman trait for AoE. At least one of these is recommended.

Чувство ритма - When Быстрая стрельба finishes fully channeling, your Haste is increased by X for 8 sec. The trait does not benefit our toolkit in a significant way and is just a nice passive bonus after casting Быстрая стрельба.

Azerite Power Rotation Changes for Marksmanship Hunter

Средоточие огня or Буйные стрелы - If you have either of these traits, they both increase the value of Обтекаемость. Streamline may pull ahead in AoE depending on how many of these traits you have.

Верный глаз - If you have any Верный глаз traits, this increases the value of Подготовка к выстрелам.

Твердая рука - A debuff placed on your target. Your stacks do not carry over to other enemies unless you Верный выстрел them as well.

Скрупулезное планирование - This trait is passive for the most part, but you should be cognizant of how it works. You have a chance to proc Лови момент! which gives you an 8 sec window to cast 3 unique abilities. For example, you must cast Прицельный выстрел, Чародейский выстрел and Быстрая стрельба to proc the buff. You cannot repeat spells, so Прицельный выстрел, Чародейский выстрел, Чародейский выстрел will not work.

Кинжал в спину - This trait does not change your rotation, however, it should be noted that this trait gets better or worse depending on your positioning from the target. It does more damage when you are attacking from behind. For melee, this is usually standard for them. For range though, you must make a conscious effort to position yourself behind the target. Simulations indicate that you are positioned behind the boss so if you are not, this trait will perform worse than sims indicate.

You can get Precise Shots damage with 2 stacks of Arcane Flurry, but it can be inefficient and depends on the situation. Lock and Load procs, and during windows where you have a lot of haste (Trueshot) will allow you to fit an Aimed Shot in before the buff falls off. Triple stacking Arcane Flurry causes your buffed Arcane Shots to deal a massive amount of damage.

Hi,

great guide as usual.

i just need to double check, in the line:

4- Focused Fire - This trait is the opposite of Steady Aim, it is weak in single target but excels in AoE, especially when pairing it with Double Tap.

Did you mean pairing Focused Fire with Streamline?

Комментарий от Nestor1234

Atleast 2 helms, maybr other armor have the Rapid Reload tier 1 trait but it is not listed in the Tier 1 traits tab.
