RaceSkyborne · High OrderYour island crab needs the right food before you sail away. This 1-30 High Order Hunter route covers Zephras Isle, Dalaran, and Stormwind, then Westfall, Loch Modan, Redridge, Duskwood, and the Wetlands. We'll finish the taming chain, get a permanent pet, and cover Beast Training, arrows, bows, and leather upgrades. Group runs are optional.
What to install from CurseForge for Forever: the useful and the fun
Beast Lore.Small things about your route, mobs, mana, and speed that add up to hours over a whole leveling run
Main route: Zephras Isle to 13-14 → High Order skycutter to Dalaran → Alliance portal to Stormwind → Westfall → Ironforge and Loch Modan → Redridge Mountains → Duskwood → Wetlands to 30. Finish island class quests before sailing. You can skip group chapters entirely.
Builds for 10-30: which one to pick and in what order to spend points
Your first point arrives at 10, with 21 available by 30. I'd begin with Beast Mastery for questing. Letting the pet take the hits gives you space to shoot. The alternatives put more damage or control into other parts of the kit. All four orders use Forever's talents. Einris Brightspear in Stormwind and Olmin Burningbeard in Ironforge handle respecs, starting at 1 gold at launch. Plan before paying to move the points.
Summon Hawk adds a new attacking companion at 25.
Deadly Aspects gives Auto Shot a 30% speed proc during Aspect of the Hawk. Then 
Focused Fire, +2% damage for you and your pet. With 
Pathfinding at 29-30 (it moved to row 3 on November 2), Aspect of the Cheetah gives 36% speed instead of 30%, which helps until your mount at 40. 
Unleashed Fury adds another 15% pet damage.Summon Hawk. The spirit hawk lasts 18 seconds, and you can have two up. Summon Hawk shares a cooldown with 
Arcane Shot, so you can't press both back to back. Then 
Ferocity 3/5 at 26-28 gives your pet and hawks more crit. After 30, finish it to 5/5: it opens 
Frenzy at 35.Pathfinding for 
Improved Revive Pet at 29-30. At 30, instead of the second point of Pathfinding, there's recovery: 
Spirit Bond returns 1% health every 10 seconds, 
Bestial Discipline helps with mana. Pick by what stops you more often.
Mend Pet in time.

Ferocity 3/5

Lethal Attacks adds +5% crit, and Forever passes your full crit chance to the pet. 
Careful Aim turns Intellect into attack power. 
Rapid Killing makes your first shot after a kill hit 20% harder. You'll want 
Efficiency for mana savings, because Marksmanship can spend the bar quickly.
Trueshot Aura: since November 2 it gives +20 ranged attack power. 
Mortal Shots boosts the critical damage of your shots. At 30, add 
Rapid Recuperation to return mana through 
Serpent Sting and Rapid Killing.
Lone Wolf becomes available at 20 with 11 points spent. It gives +20% damage without a pet. I'd only consider it with a steady tank, since soloing loses your usual protection. Beta feedback on the talent has been poor.

Improved Tracking adds 5% to all damage against the tracked creature type. 
Endurance Training makes your pet 15% tougher, and 
Survivalist gives you 10% more health. At 22-23, 
Deflection 2/5 adds parry chance: Pathfinding moved to row 3 on November 2 and no longer fits here. At 30, 
Deterrence gives 10 seconds of higher dodge and parry.
Track Beasts for beasts or 
Track Humanoids for humanoids. Once you learn 
Track Undead at 18, switch to that for undead quests. The wrong tracking leaves the damage bonus unused.Unleashed Fury and the hawks don't fit into this build.

Savage Strikes with 
Predator's Edge supports melee crits. Take Deterrence at 23, followed by 
Counterattack at 25 for a strike and root after parrying. 
Strider Kick at 30 adds a hit and +30% speed for 3 seconds.
Aspect of the Beast at 30 and a good two-hander, beta players find the melee kit sparse. Shooting is often stronger early. Train the weapon skill before swapping. The optional Nek'rosh branch contains a two-handed sword reward.Improved Tracking 5/5

Lord Ello Ebonlocke : turn in ?Bride of the Embalmer[30].
Compare the leather shoulders 
Darkshire Shoulderguards with yours. You cannot use the shield; the cloth shoulders are for a caster.
After the turn-in, fly to Stormwind with Felicia Maline for level 30 Hunter training.
Feign Death, pet skills and supplies for the road ahead.
Razor Arrow. Restock arrows before this loop; the vendor price is per bundle.Sweet Nectar, ≈ 2. Bring water for several fights; do not spend your ammo money on a new skill.
Heavy Quiver for ≈ 20, from 30, 14 slots and +12% speed. Compare it with the quest reward 
Quiver of the Night Watch, 12 slots/+11%.Felicia Maline : fly from Darkshire to Stormwind. If you have already arrived after a group branch, go straight to the trainer.
Einris Brightspear : learn 
Feign Death and, for melee Survival, Aspect of the Beast; upgrade your other main ranks. Karrina Mekenda : Growl for a level 30 pet and available passive upgrades.
The main route is complete. Keep your strong bow, suitable leather, pet food and arrows. Further leveling does not require clearing every group chapter you skipped.
Worn Shortbow, Worn Dagger, Light Quiver and Rough Arrow. Skyborne Hunters know Bows and Daggers and wear leather and cloth. Guns require separate training; Hunters cannot use shields or maces, and mail comes at 40.Auto Shot and Arcane Shot. Use Serpent Sting when the mob will live long enough for the ticks. Already in melee? 
Raptor Strike and finishing the target may be safer than trying to run through another camp.Concussive Shot helps create distance; from 12, Wing Clip applies a melee slow. Do not retreat blindly into a patrol.Growl autocast enabled while solo.Aspect of the Hawk for ranged combat. Aspect of the Monkey is more useful when you actually have to take the hits yourself.Mend Pet heals your pet using your mana. Start before its health becomes critical. If you pulled too much, pull the pet back rather than standing there until it dies.Hunter's Mark and Serpent Sting when the fight is long enough to benefit. If another Auto Shot will kill the mob, save the mana for the next pull.Immolation Trap goes at your feet for extra damage. From 20, Freezing Trap takes an extra target out of the fight. Forever allows traps in combat.Aspect of the Cheetah speeds up travel, but switch aspects before taking a hit. The speed is not worth getting dazed in an enemy camp.Feign Death becomes available at 30. Keep the pet's position and possible resists in mind. I'd use it as an emergency tool with an escape path prepared, not a guarantee that any pull is safe.Multi-Shot on a pack with a CC'd target.| Level | What to check at the trainer | Where along the route |
|---|---|---|
| 4-8 | Aspect of the Monkey, Serpent Sting; Arcane Shot and Hunter's Mark from 6, Concussive Shot from 8. | Keep your distance, slow the target and update available ranks; your permanent pet comes after the island chain at 10. |
| 10 | Four class chain turn-ins, Aspect of the Hawk, pet skills. | The island chain takes place in Valanaar; the final pet trainer is Quel'dora Quickgale . |
| 12-16 | Mend Pet, Wing Clip; Scare Beast from 14, Immolation Trap and Mongoose Bite from 16. | Einris Brightspear in Stormwind; Olmin Burningbeard in Ironforge. |
| 18-20 | Multi-Shot; Aimed Shot, Aspect of the Cheetah, Freezing Trap, Disengage from 20. | Level 18 training and the level 20 stop. |
| 22-26 | Shot ranks; Beast Lore from 24, Rapid Fire from 26. | 22, 24, 26. |
| 28-30 | Frost Trap, new attack and healing ranks; Feign Death from 30, Aspect of the Beast for melee. | 28 and final training. |
Do not buy every ability just because it appears in the list. Prioritize core shots, healing and pet control, then situational abilities. Check prices and discounts in your client. Do not leave the trainer without enough gold for arrows.
Tame Beast, feed it and teach its skills.Feed Pet; watch happiness after taming and death. Choose food for the pet's level, which may lag behind yours. After it dies, use Revive Pet, then heal and feed it.Dismiss Pet temporarily puts it away; Call Pet brings it back. You do not need the permanent Abandon option in its portrait menu for normal swaps.Beast Training.Beast Lore first. Beasts temporarily tamed for an ability do not have to replace your permanent pet.Growl autocast solo and disable it in a dungeon with a tank. Choose targets manually. Do not leave your pet aggressive near other groups.Dismiss Pet; after landing, use Call Pet. Otherwise the pet may run around the floor and pull mobs. Coordinate CC: do not send it into your own Freezing Trap.Check pet food at your stops: Stormwind before Westfall, Ironforge before Loch Modan, Lakeshire before Duskwood and Menethil Harbor before Wetlands. Your island crab eats bread, mushrooms and fish; stock meat only for a meat-eating pet. If the next stop lacks suitable food, bring supplies from the previous one. Skill reference: Petopia Forever.
For the main ranged build, compare ranged DPS and arrows first, then Agility, Stamina and attack power. Strength does not improve shooting. Your melee weapon usually provides stats; its damage matters more for the separate melee Survival build.
| When | Item | How to get it and what to compare |
|---|---|---|
| 1-3 | Worn Shortbow, Worn Dagger, Light Quiver; Hornwood Recurve Bow from 3 | Nordun Steadysight in Goldshire: Hornwood Recurve Bow for ≈ 3, 2.38 DPS. Your starter quiver already gives +10% speed. |
| Elwynn, optional alternative | Junior's Hunting Bow from Bounty on Murlocs[10] | 3.53 DPS. The quest unlocks after Deliver Thomas' Report[10], but is outside the main loop: by then, the book chain gives a stronger bow. Do not make a separate detour for a downgrade. |
| 11-16 | Laminated Recurve Bow, then Reinforced Bow | William MacGregor in Sentinel Hill: Laminated Recurve Bow for ≈ 18, from 11, if you missed the reward bow. Skolmin Goldfury in Ironforge: Reinforced Bow for ≈ 38, from 16, 7.50 DPS. |
| The Hall of Thanes | Calibrated Blunderbuss from Old Ironforge Incursion[16] | A gun with 9.57 DPS/+3 Stamina. Training: Buliwyf Stonehand . Bullets and ammo pouch: Bretta Goldfury in Ironforge. Level the new skill first; do not take weapon skill 1 to a boss. |
| 20-26 | Heavy Recurve Bow | Frederick Stover in Stormwind: Heavy Recurve Bow for ≈ 63; or Avette Fellwood in Darkshire: Heavy Recurve Bow for ≈ 63. 9.17 DPS. A gun you already earned may be stronger; do not make an unnecessary switch. |
| 27 | Sturdy Recurve | Skolmin Goldfury in Ironforge: Sturdy Recurve for ≈ 195, 12.95 DPS/+4 Stamina. Available without a group; compare it with your current ranged weapon. |
| Wetlands | Raptor's End from Ormer's Revenge[29] | 12.07 DPS/+2 Agility/+2 Stamina. Finish the raptors and Sarltooth first. Compare its stats with Sturdy Recurve; do not automatically equip a later reward. |
| 29-30 | Quiver of the Night Watch from The Night Watch[30]; Heavy Quiver | The reward quiver has 12 slots/+11% speed. Marda Weller : Heavy Quiver for ≈ 20, from 30, 14 slots/+12%. Delay the purchase if you already have enough room for arrows. |
Rough Arrow from 1: +1.5 DPS; Sharp Arrow from 10: +3.5; Razor Arrow from 25: +7.5. Keep several stacks of 200 in your quiver. Check the vendor price per bundle.
Heavy Shot from 10 or Solid Shot from 25. Crossbows use arrows. When switching weapon types, check the skill, ammo and container. A quiver does not replace an ammo pouch.
Footman Tunic; The People's Militia[17]: Boots of the People's Militia, but its +4 spell power does not improve regular shooting. Do not choose mail before 40 for its armor value.Dusty Belt, +2 Agility/+2 Spirit from The Restless Dead[15]; the mail Cryptwalker Bracers is unavailable. Deadmines: Tunic of Westfall, +11 Agility/+5 Stamina from The Defias Brotherhood[22].Black Whelp Gloves/Black Whelp Boots from Underbelly Scales[18], Smith's Trousers from The Everstill Bridge[20]; with a group, Bone-studded Leather from Missing In Action[25] and Disjointed Shoes from WANTED: Incinerator Gar'im[25].Mariner Boots from Return the Statuette[25]. Stockade: Belt of Vindication from The Fury Runs Deep[27]; Hunters cannot use the two-handed mace. Late Eliza branch: Darkshire Shoulderguards from Bride of the Embalmer[30].Skinning Knife.
Expert First Aid - Under Wraps from Deneb Walker in Stromgarde. The book raises the skill cap. A dangerous separate trip before 30 is optional; buying from players is another option.Each optional group chapter handles its own quests. You can skip them and finish the main route without depending on a drop from another dungeon. Before a run, buy ammo, suitable pet food, and water, then set the pet up to work with the tank.
| Chapter | What you get | Preparation |
|---|---|---|
| The Hall of Thanes 16-18 | Gun Calibrated Blunderbuss, leather Dusty Belt. | Pick up the breadcrumbs before entering. Budget for training and bullets if you want the gun. |
| Deadmines 20-22 | Leather Tunic of Westfall. Boss drops are not guaranteed in one run. | Deliveries and escort first. Keep the supplied tool until the hidden forge. |
| Redridge 24-26 | Leather Bone-studded Leather and Disjointed Shoes. | Group up for the keep and escort. Do not expect your pet to tank an elite pack alone. |
| Excavation 28-30 | XP and story; no direct ranged weapon reward upgrade is promised. | Separate preparation. The two-handed mace is unavailable. |
| Stockade 28-30 | Leather Belt of Vindication; compare other rewards with your current slots. | Dun Modr and city errands. The Deadmines letter is not required. |
| Nek'rosh and Duskwood finale 29-30 | Ancient War Sword for melee; leather shoulders Darkshire Shoulderguards. | Nek'rosh and Eliza/Stalvan are independent. Stalvan is 35; the quest's minimum level does not make the fight safe. |
Aimed Shot is trained from 20 rather than requiring its old Classic talent. Traps work in combat. Since November 2, all traps share one 30-second cooldown, so you can no longer drop a fire trap and a frost trap back to back.Beast Lore tooltip. Old Era tables may point to the wrong skill teacher.Skyborne taming ends with Training the Beast[10] on the island. After turn-in, check your spellbook for Tame Beast, Feed Pet, Call Pet, Dismiss Pet and Revive Pet.
Wind Blessed increases attack speed by 2%, and 
Elemental Insight adds 5% damage against elementals. Read Leyline helps recover health; it is neither the Horde movement boost nor a source of rage or Energy.Feign Death from 30 does not guarantee safety from players or stop your pet fighting. Control the pet and choose a clear escape route before running.Dismiss Pet dismisses the pet temporarily. Abandoning it from the portrait menu is a separate action.Read Leyline: 2-second cast, 2-minute cooldown. +50% health and mana regeneration for 15 seconds. At a leyline, you gain the hour-long Attuned buff: while active, the ritual grants +100%, and Attuned persists through death. This does not heal you for 100% health or increase movement speed.Wind Blessed: +2% casting speed and melee and ranged attack speed.Elemental Insight: +5% damage against elementals. This depends on the enemy's creature type, not merely whether it casts elemental spells.Walk on Air lets you glide with directional control for 10 seconds, on a 1.5-minute cooldown. Activate while airborne. Pick the landing spot before stepping off the ledge.
