Curated for Mythic+ ranged DPS — Beast Cleave during Bestial Wrath for pack burst, Barbed Shot uptime maintaining Frenzy stacks, and Misdirection on the tank before each pull. Reviewed 28 Jun 2026.
More flexible and straightforward M+ option — Beast Cleave and multi-target Kill Command hits for high-density packs. Good pick for players who prefer a simpler rotation without managing Black Arrow procs.
Higher-ceiling M+ pick — Black Arrow procs amplify burst windows on priority targets within packs, giving stronger peak damage than Pack Leader at the cost of more decision points. Top pick for pushing high keys.

Tracks group cooldowns from the combat log — for BM Hunter, most useful for seeing when healer defensives are available for safe Misdirection timing and when group kicks are on cooldown so Intimidation needs to cover an interrupt gap.

Countdown bars for your active effects — Bestial Wrath's 15-second window, Barbed Shot's Frenzy stack duration, and pet cooldowns — showing exactly how long each buff lasts rather than what to press next. Knowing you have 4 seconds left in Bestial Wrath vs 12 completely changes whether to spend a Kill Command now, and clipping Barbed Shot precisely rather than guessing is what keeps Frenzy from dropping.
