Overview
Beast Mastery is the most mobile damage spec in the game — every ability is instant, so you lose essentially nothing to movement. Your pets do most of the damage, which makes the spec forgiving mechanically but demands you keep your pets alive and on target.
How this spec operates
- Focus fuels
Kill Command and
Cobra Shot — your pet does most of the damage.
Barbed Shot maintains pet
Frenzy stacks — never let frenzy drop.
Bestial Wrath is your burst window — align
Kill Command and focus spending inside it.
Multi-Shot applies
Beast Cleave in AoE — refresh before it lapses, not after.- Pet is always attacking —
Kill Command on cooldown is your highest-priority button.
