How you play Beast Mastery Hunter

Your pets do the hard work: you send them in and keep them angry.

Your buttons, most important first

Bestial Wrath every time it is ready, about every 30 seconds. Fire a Barbed Shot just before it.
Kill Command whenever it is ready. Put another shot between two Kill Commands.
Barbed Shot before it reaches 2 charges: the bleed grows and it gives Focus.
Nothing else ready? Cobra Shot. It also brings Kill Command back sooner.

More enemies: Wild Thrash whenever it is ready, and right after Bestial Wrath: then your pets hit every enemy.

Biggest mistake: Letting Barbed Shot or Kill Command sit at 2 charges: that is free damage thrown away.

Hero talents

Pack Leader (best this season): after Bestial Wrath, Kill Command calls a beast and a Stampede. Aim that line through the pack.

Dark Ranger: Black Arrow whenever you can in the first 10 seconds of Bestial Wrath; end that window with Wailing Arrow.
