"Simming" Yourself as a Beast Mastery Hunter
Throughout this page, we will regularly refer to the importance of simmingyourself on Raidbots, as it is an indispensable aspect of optimizing your character.
While we do offer generic sim charts for Trinkets, this should not be areplacement for simming yourself, at least not if you want to minmax sub-1%!
If you are new to simming and Raidbots, check out our detailed guide below.

Patch 10.2 Tier Set for Beast Mastery Hunter
The Tier Set is comprised of 5 items, all carrying the Blazing Dreamstalker's moniker.Unique DPS bonuses are unlocked when wearing 2, and 4 pieces from the set:
- 2 pieces:
Hunter Beast Mastery 10.2 Class Set 2pc causes Bestial Wrath to summon a Dire Beast, with all associatedeffects therefore, including Dire Command. Can only be triggered onceevery 15 seconds. - 4 pieces: Hunter Beast Mastery 10.2 Class Set 4pc causes your mostrecent Dire Beast summon to also obey your Kill Command, and benefit from your Beast Cleave, at 30% reduced damage.
The Tier Set Bonus is absolutely mandatory for competitive play, and youshould prioritize obtaining it. You can use theRevival Catalyst to convert regular items (from Mythic+, forexample) into Tier Items.
You only need 4 pieces out of 5 to get both set bonuses. We recommend youget all items except for the Gloves, due to their Versatility. Check out the BiS List for more information.

Best Crafted Items for Raiding for Beast Mastery Hunter
This section focuses on Crafting for Raiding. The rankings differ becausesome effects, like those on Adaptive Dracothyst Armguards, do not procas reliably in Mythic+, and 
Allied Legguards of Sansok Khan relies onbuffing numerous DPS allies to be good, which is not possible in the smallgroup sizes of Mythic+.
- Your first 2 Crafts should be getting your Embellishments sorted. The bestEmbellishments for Raiding are the Adaptive Dracothyst Armguards, andeither Blue Silken Lining (BSL) or Allied Legguards of Sansok Khan.TheAllied Legguards are ~0.5% better than BSL in some raid compositions, mostly those with a large Ranged DPS camp, two Discipline Priests, or acombination of such factors, assuming40% BSL uptime, but most oftheir value comes from buffing allies, meaning it is technically a personal DPSloss to use. Which one you Craft first depends heavily on your current gearsituation and should be simulated on Raidbots. BSL can be crafted onto anyitem slot, and I generally recommend a Signet of Titanic Insight to gain thefree socket.
- Once your Embellishments are sorted, you should chase raw Item Level on thebiggest-budget items. What follows is a generic ranking of the highest-valueitems, to increase your Item Level with.
- Signet of Titanic Insight/ Ring-Bound Hourglass, whichever you did not craft previously. Note that the Hourglass cannot take Embellishments.
- Bow of the Dragon Hunters/ Ol' Smoky, if you do not otherwise have access to a 486 iLvl Weapon, and you did not craft it in previous steps.
- From this point, I strongly recommend you sim yourself to work out future crafts.

Best Crafted Items for Mythic+ for Beast Mastery Hunter
This section focuses on Crafting for Mythic+. Blue Silken Lininggenerally has much higher uptimes in Mythic+ compared to Raiding, whilesimultaneously, its competitors have relatively lower uptimes/efficiencies inMythic+.
- Your first 2 Crafts should be getting your Embellishments sorted. The bestEmbellishment for Mythic+ is Blue Silken Lining (BSL) in both of yourEmbellished slots. BSL can be crafted onto anyitem slot, and I generally recommend a Signet of Titanic Insight to gain thefree sockets, for starters. The other BSL should be crafted onto whatever suits your current gear in terms of iLvl gain, and should be simmed.
- Once your Embellishments are sorted, you should chase raw Item Level on thebiggest-budget items. What follows is a generic ranking of the highest-valueitems, to increase your Item Level with.
- Signet of Titanic Insight/ Ring-Bound Hourglass, whichever you did not craft previously. Note that the Hourglass cannot take Embellishments.
- Bow of the Dragon Hunters/ Ol' Smoky, if you do not otherwise have access to a 486 iLvl Weapon, and you did not craft it in previous steps.
- From this point, I strongly recommend you sim yourself to work out future crafts.

Trinkets for Beast Mastery Hunter in Season 3
There are a number of strong options available for Beast Mastery Hunter in Season 3coming from a variety of different sources. Some relevant ones to look for inorderof strength are:
| Trinket | Note |
|---|---|
| Witherbark's Branch | Theoretically, this Trinket can be the best we have, but; optimal use ofthe Trinket requires you to do a lot of moving when it is used. Itspawns three spheres that chase you. Optimal play entails picking up onesphere, and then collecting the other two as late as possible, just before thebuff expires. This way, you extend the buff for up to 30 seconds. Mostsituations will not allow you to do this anywhere near perfectly, but it isstill the best Trinket even if you only do it to a reasonable standard. Despiteit beinga two-minute on-use, it does pair pretty well with Mirror of Fractured Tomorrows, and should simply be used with Call of the Wild as normal, with Mirror being used on cooldown. It iseven better if you can alter someof your Call of the Wilds to line up with it, while still lining every2nd CoTW up with Mirror of Fractured Tomorrows. A complicated, butinteresting and powerful Trinket. |
| Mirror of Fractured Tomorrows | Gives a ton of your highest secondary stat for 20 seconds on a 3-minutecooldown. Stack it with Call of the Wild for some excellent burst! Asimple and extremely powerful Trinket that "just works", when Branch does not. |
| Pip's Emerald Friendship Badge | A strong "stat-stick" Trinket, and your strongest pairing with the Branch or Mirror. |
| Ember of Nullification | This Versatility stat-stick Trinket is surprisingly competitive. There arenot a lot of half-decent, passive Trinkets from the Mythic+ Dungeon Pool. Thispairs well with both Branch and Mirror if you do not want to use the formertogether. |
 Idol of the Earth-Warder and its friends | This Trinket comes in 4 forms, all crafted by Jewelcrafting. Eachversion of it offers a different secondary stat passive, which scales with the4 Gem types. For the most part, the Mastery/ Idol of the Earth-Warderversion will be optimal. This is an excellent stat-stick Trinket, particularlywhen you have a lot of sockets, but does require a  Spark of Dreams tocraft. By the time you have Sparks to spare for this Trinket, you will likelyhave a Mirror and Pip's combo. But in case you do not, consider this one! |
| Bandolier of Twisted Blades | Deals solid damage every 90 seconds, which scales with  Death Chakram, but it can only be used at melee range. |
