Best Marksmanship Hunter Professions
Tailoring
Tailoring is your best option for Marksmanship Hunter because it offers an additional enchant for your cloak, Swordguard. Swordguard Embroidery provides a massive Ranged Attack Power buff that can be stacked with additional damage modifiers to have stronger burst windows when using Chimera Shot or Aimed Shot.
Flexible Marksmanship Hunter Professions
All three Professions listed below are equally valuable, making your second primary profession based on your own preference.
Engineering
Engineering provides an exclusive glove enchant with an on-use effect. If you choose to pick this profession, you will not be able to stack additional on-Use effects with this enchant. The enchant provided will synergize with a proc based trinket, making it more valuable to use Vicious Gladiator’s Insignia of Conquest to maximize your burst windows.
Blacksmithing
Blacksmithing is another profession to choose from, especially in the later seasons in Cataclysm. Blacksmiths receive additional gem sockets, one on bracers and another on gloves. In Season 11, everyone will have access to Epic gems, making this profession a promising choice throughout the expansion.
Jewelcrafting
Jewelcrafting is your last flexible profession to choose from mainly because of its access to unique, Jewelcrafting only gems. These gems are important for stronger consistent throughput and survivability to maximize your Agility. If you want to minmax Agility, make sure to use Delicate Chimera’s Eye in your red gem slots. If you have not reached your cap for Resilience or Hit Rating, you can use Mystic Chimera’s Eye or Rigid Chimera’s Eye for an extra stat boost.
