      About the Beast Mastery Hunter build

      Beast Mastery Hunter is a 54/17/0 build: fifty-four points in Beast Mastery and seventeen in Marksmanship. The talents that define it are Beast Mastery itself (which lets you tame exotic pets), The Beast Within, Ferocious Inspiration, Kindred Spirits, Serpent's Swiftness and Cobra Strikes. There is one build in the calculator, so the page is about how those points are spent and about the three major glyphs that go with them.
