Guide

How Beast Mastery plays.

Bestial Wrath goes out on cooldown, Barbed Shot goes out before it caps on charges, and Kill Command fills the gaps between them. Cobra Shot is your filler. Both hero trees are in: with Black Arrow you play Dark Ranger, without it Pack Leader.

One target

  1. Barbed Shot right before Bestial Wrath, or before it caps on charges.
  2. Bestial Wrath.
  3. Kill Command when a Pack Leader beast is ready, or with Nature's Ally, or before it caps.
  4. Cobra Shot at 4 Cobra Fang stacks (the tier set; without it this step is skipped).
  5. Barbed Shot below 75 Focus (changeable).
  6. Cobra Shot while Bestial Wrath is on cooldown.

Dark Ranger

  • Bestial Wrath, then Black Arrow with Withering Fire.
  • Kill Command, then Wailing Arrow before Withering Fire runs out.
  • Black Arrow, Barbed Shot and Cobra Shot fill the rest.

Packs

  • The pack order starts at 3 targets, or at 2 with Beast Cleave (you can change both numbers).
  • Wild Thrash goes right after Bestial Wrath, and whenever Beast Cleave has dropped.
  • Kill Command, Barbed Shot and Cobra Shot go out while Beast Cleave is up.
  • Rest your mouse on a mob without Barbed Shot (or with little time left on it) and the helper puts it there.

Good to know

  • Misdirection and Hunter's Mark before the pull stay yours.
  • Counter Shot is handled by the helper's interrupt step, Intimidation by its crowd control step.
  • Your racial goes out with Bestial Wrath.
What it does for you

Built for Beast Mastery.

01

Cooldowns that line up

Your Beast Mastery cooldowns go when the priority says so, not when a timer runs out.

02

AoE when it pays

Area spells only once enough enemies are around you. You pick the number.

03

Kicks and stuns

Interrupts on the casts that matter, at the last safe moment, and no stuns on mobs that can't be stunned.

04

DoTs on every mob

Rest your mouse on another enemy and your missing DoT goes there. Your target never changes.

05

Immunity learning

It learns which mobs shrug off your spells and stops casting them there.

06

You stay in control

Every spell, threshold and line of the priority is yours to change. One switch turns it off.

In the rotation

Beast Mastery spells it uses.

Lines for spells you don't have are skipped, so it follows your talents.
