Best Marksmanship Hunter PvP Races

Alliance

Human

If you plan to choose Alliance as your faction for Marksmanship Hunter in Cataclysm PvP, Human is your best option out of both factions. Will to Survive is undoubtedly considered the best racial for most specs in Cataclysm, which allows us to substitute out our PvP trinket purchased from the current Season 9 PvP vendors.

Substitute Trinket

Will to Survive as a racial ability has identical effects as the current Season 9 PvP trinket, Vicious Gladiator’s Medallion of Tenacity, removing your character from any Crowd Control you are in. Having this racial be your substitute PvP trinket offers the opportunity to use multiple PvP On-Use Trinkets, such as Vicious Gladiator’s Badge of Conquest, to provide additional throughput during your burst windows onto your enemy targets.

Horde

Orc

If you plan to choose Horde as your faction for Marksmanship Hunter in Cataclysm PvP, Orc is your best option to choose from. Hardiness, Command, and Blood Fury provide strong survivability and throughput when in PvP combat, and is a strong competitor with the Human racial.

Hardiness Racial

Hardiness‘s ability grants a passive 15% stun reduction, making all stuns now at a reduced duration. From this effect, this allows for players to slip away from danger quicker and have more overall uptime.

Command Racial

Command‘s ability grants the Marksmanship Hunter’s pet a 5% passive damage increase. Your hunter pet will have more consistent pressure throughout a game, helping you secure kill windows more often during a match.

Blood Fury Racial

Orc is provided with an On-Use racial, Blood Fury, which grants Attack Power to you for a short amount of time. This can be paired with your burst cooldowns like Rapid Fire to provide additional damage throughput onto your enemies.
