Best Marksmanship Hunter Pets
Monkey
The Monkey pet will be the pet you will be using in most arena matches. This is due to the ability, Bad Manner, which disorients your target for 4 seconds, and can be paired with Freezing Trap to assist you with landing traps on enemy healers. Using this ability to peel your enemies off of yourself or allies can assist your team in dire situations.
Cat
This pet category will be used in the starting room for a temporary buff. Make sure to get a Cat pet for the ability, Roar of Courage, increasing your team’s primary stat for 1 minute. Whenever deciding to play with a melee, prioritize applying this buff, especially for Feral Druids or Arms Warriors.
Wolf
This pet category will be used in the starting room for a temporary buff. Make sure to get a Wolf pet for the ability, Furious Howl, increasing your team’s Critical Strike for 1 minute. This can be valuable to apply on your teammates when playing with Casters or Death Knights.
Spider
This pet category can be valuable against melee cleave compositions. This allows you to use the ability, Web, to immobilize your enemies for a short duration. Using this to avoid being executed by your opponents during crucial moments can help change the direction of an arena match.
Bird of Prey
If you want an additional pet that is well considered when facing melee cleave compositions, try getting a pet from the Bird of Prey category. This allows you to use the ability, Snatch, to disarm an enemy target. This will apply as long as your pet is in Line of Sight of your target.
Bear
The Bear pet category grants you the ability, Demoralizing Roar, to reduce physical damage of your enemies surrounding your Bear pet.
Sporebat
Sporebats offer the spell, Spore Cloud, which will reduce the cast time of your enemies. This will apply to the targets when they are nearby your Sporebat pet, and can be promising to use against Affliction Warlocks or Shadow Priests.
