Every item scores the sum of its stats times these weights; the highest score takes the slot, and stars compare scores. Critical Strike and Hit are per 1%, the rest per point.

How much hit you need depends on how many levels the target is above you, not on your own level; hit from talents counts too.

How These Picks Are Made

Each level shows the best piece for every slot you can get on the way there: boss and trash drops in every dungeon you can enter by then, dungeon quests and world quests from the level you can take them, vendor gear, named rare drops, and crafted gear. Pieces marked crafter only bind to their maker or need the profession to wear. Under each sheet, the best enchant or armor kit for each piece is listed with the skill it needs, from the level that skill can be trained. Every spec ranks items by its own stat weights, the same ones behind its stat priority above, with a little extra value on Stamina while you level; open a spec's stat weights under its priority to see the numbers. Below the totals, each sheet names the two-hander or one-hand pair it passed over and how close it comes. Under each sheet, Gear Options lists every slot's pick (five stars) and its next three pieces, rated in stars against it, by slot or by where to farm them. Right-click an option's icon to try it on the sheet, or click a slot on the sheet to choose from its options; the totals follow. Hover any item for its full tooltip.

Each stat priority is the spec's stat weights from highest to lowest, so it always matches how the sheets rank gear; stats of equal weight are joined with =. Damage to one spell school (such as +30 Shadow damage) counts as Spell Power in proportion to the share of damage the spec deals in that school, and Spell Penetration as half a point of Spell Power. At level 60 the PvE set is pre-raid gear (dungeons, quests, crafting and reputation, no raid drops), and the PvP set adds battleground reputation and honor rank gear. Items without Forever data yet show their Classic Era stats.

Hunter BiS & Gear Common Questions

What is the best Hunter stat priority in WoW Forever?

Beast Mastery: Critical Strike > Hit > Agility > Intellect > Attack Power > Stamina. Marksmanship: Critical Strike > Hit > Agility > Intellect > Attack Power > Stamina. Survival: Critical Strike > Hit > Agility > Intellect > Attack Power > Stamina. Each order is the spec's stat weights from highest to lowest, the same weights its gear sheets rank by; Critical Strike and Hit count per 1%, the rest per point.

What is the Hunter hit cap in WoW Forever?

Beast Mastery needs 8% hit against a level 63 raid boss, Marksmanship needs 8% hit against a level 63 raid boss and Survival needs 8% hit against a level 63 raid boss. The hit you need depends on how many levels the target is above you, not on your own level. Melee and ranged attacks need 5%, 5.5%, 6% and 8% against targets 0 to 3 levels above you. Hit from talents counts too, so gear needs only the rest.

What is the best Hunter spec for leveling?

Beast Mastery is the leveling spec on this page, using the Beast Mastery Beta Start build. Its gear sheets open first; switch spec at the top to see the gear the other specs rank highest, or open the Hunter talent builds.

What is the Hunter pre-raid BiS gear at level 60?

The Level 60 PvE sheet is Hunter pre-raid BiS: the best piece in every slot from dungeons, quests, crafting and reputation, without raid drops. The PvP sheet adds battleground reputation and honor rank gear. Each slot lists where the piece drops and three alternatives.

When should a Hunter upgrade gear while leveling?

This page has a full gear sheet at level 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60. Each sheet uses only gear you can reach by that level, from dungeons you can enter, quests you can take, vendors, rare spawns and crafting, plus the best enchant for each piece. Hunters wear mail armor at most.
