Welcome to our Gear guide for PvE Beast Mastery Hunter! Below you will find your Pre-Raid BiS gear, along with the BiS gear for each phase.

It is important to remember that this guide assumes you have no Draenei Paladin, Warrior or Hunter for Heroic Presence in your group and zero Moonkins for Improved Faerie Fire, so that we are able to cover all bases in terms of required stats, just in case!
