Hunters, as any decent WoW player will tell you, are one of the the easier classes to level in the game. Their pets can be built into tanking machines, handling elites on their own while you sit behind the action doing loads of damage. But use the best hunter leveling spec, and you’ll level faster than anyone else.

Of course, the key to doing that is to specialize your hunter properly. Any of the three spec trees will benefit your leveling but Beast Mastery is by far and away the best as it gives you the most talents for transforming your pet into a proper tank. If you are good enough, you can build your pet up so strongly that your Hunter will not even need any armor at all!

Prepared to level up faster than every other class? Then here is one of the most popular Hunter builds in the game from the legendary Zygon guide.

Zygon’s build focuses solely on leveling up as fast as possible. With the added bonus to critical chance, damage and holding aggro, it is perfect for working through the levels. It does not, however, work particularly well if you want to take part in a lot of PvPing. If that is more your style, then here is another build that works quite well.

For your glyphs, choose Aspect of the Viper, Serpent String and Hunter’s Mark.

Glyphs: Freezing Trap, Bestial Wrath, Hunter’s Mark.

Minor Glyphs: Revive Pet, Mend Pet, Feign Death.

Naturally, the all-important Beast Mastery is included at the end. There is also the critical bonus for your pet with Ferocity and the must-have talent Unleashed Fury which makes your pet hit harder.

With both builds, you need to make sure you don’t take aggro off your pet. The key is keeping your hunter away from mobs so he can deal damage safely. Let your pet take all of the damage from mobs and make sure you don’t attract any to your hunter. Do that properly and you will be leveling up faster than you could imagine.
