Best Marksmanship Hunter Torghast Anima Powers
Throughout Torghast, you will be met with a ton of different choices when itcomes to Anima Powers. Choosing the right one can be difficult, so we've made aTier List below that should help you make the decision on the fly. This TierList assumes that the powers are the same level.
Do not follow this list blindly, though, as there is a lot of personalchoice and preference involved in choosing your Anima Powers. If you never use Tar Trap in your playstyle, it would be silly to pick an Anima Powerthat increases its radius, for example.
As usual, "S" is best and "F" is worst.

5.
Marksmanship Hunter Playstyle for Torghast, Tower of the Damned
Inherently, Marksmanship is pretty weak for Torghast, but it can absolutelybe viable and to help you achieve this, we have some tips below.
- Use Misdirection on your pet constantly. Macro it in with your Barrage if you are using this talent to instantly gather abunch of mobs around your pet.
- Use Line of Sight to your advantage. There are a lot of caster mobs inTorghast, and the Misdirection-Barrage strategy will not work if your petis out in the open. If you want to be really efficient, manually place your petaround a corner outside the room before you do your Misdirection into Barrageand watch all the casters gather up for you.
- Use Binding Shot and Tar Trap aggressively. Yourspec isonly good at stacked AoE, so use your pet as a stacking point for mobs and usethese crowd control abilities to keep them there. Plus, there are Anima Powersthat vastly amplify these abilities, so it is good to get into the habit ofusing them.
- Remember that Exhilaration heals your pet for 100% of its health!You will use it more to heal your pet than yourself.
- Keybind and use Mend Pet often. Your pet is going to be squishy asMarksmanship, so you want to help it wherever you can.
- Most importantly, take it slow. There is no timer in Torghast, theonly thing limiting your advancement is dying, so do not die! Use Freezing Trap to get rid of high-health mobs temporarily, just becareful not to break your CC with Barrage immediately after.
