Curated for Mythic+ ranged DPS — Trick Shots cleave setup, Hunter's Mark priority targeting, and managing Disengage without losing uptime on a pack. Reviewed 28 Jun 2026.
M+ AoE build — Dark Ranger hero talent with Volley and Trick Shots for multi-target packs. Hunter's Mark on priority targets while cleaving the pack. Top pick for keys with frequent large pulls.
Alternative M+ build for keys where Lunar Storm target marking provides more sustained AoE output than Dark Ranger burst. Better on longer pulls with consistent multi-target pressure and packs that stay alive long enough for barrage stacks.
Record your own talent build alongside your addons — it's included when you share your setup. Get a talent string from the Wowhead talent calculator or export directly from the in-game talent tree (press N → share icon). Paste the URL or the raw string — both work.

Visual and audio alert when a dangerous ability targets you specifically — for MM Hunter at range, you might not notice a targeting reticle while watching your cast bar, so the audio cue gives you time to Feign Death to drop the mechanic or trigger Aspect of the Turtle before the ability resolves.

BetterBlizzFrames keeps the default UI layout intact while adding the things it lacks: castbars on your target and focus frames, class color health bars, and absorb tracking.
