What are Essences?
Essences are a system of power progression for the Heart of Azeroth introduced in patch 8.2. These legendary-like bonuses are unlocked through pre-determined activities including dungeons, raids, open-world activities, PvP, reputations, and achievements, and come in four ranks: Uncommon, Rare, Epic, and Legendary. The second and third ranks add to or improve the base effect, while the last unlocks a flashy visual. Each Essence has a unique Major and Minor power, which can be socketed into the Heart of Azeroth upon completing a short introductory questline. For more information on available Essences and the drop locations for each rank, see our
Heart of Azeroth Essences Overview Guide
.
Essences may be changed in any rested area, or by using any
type item, but the same Essence cannot be used in multiple sockets, resulting in a total of 1 Major and 4 Minor powers active at any one time. You can pre-plan and preview your Essence setup in our
Essence Calculator
.

Account-Wide Essences for Alts
While Essences have been a chore to unlock on characters until Ny'alotha, Blizzard has introduced a new system in Patch 8.3 to speed up the process of obtaining Essences for subsequent characters: Echoes of Ny'alotha! Most current activities completed, like Mythic+, PvP, or Emissaries will reward a given number of Echoes, which can be traded at MOTHER at the Chamber of Heart for a Rank 3 Essence that you have already unlocked in another toon.

Marksmanship Hunter Essences Suggestions per Content Type
These are simple guidelines, based on activity and assumes you have all available essences unlocked at rank 3. Keep in mind that there will be many variations for things such as raiding and Mythic+, so reference those guide pages for more specific information.

Marksmanship Hunter Essence Simulations
We have comparative simulations for each of the different Major and Minor essence powers, courtesy of SimulationCraft, Bloodmallet, and other class tools. Don't forget that this is simply an overview; you can create your own comparisons as well as combinations of different essences you have unlocked on your character using
Raidbots
Top Gear function. If you are not already familiar with Raidbots and how to use it, take a look at our
How To Guide
.
Again, this is simply an overview. Certain Essences, such as Worldvein minor, may be worse in practice on encounters with heavy movement or when you are the only player in your group using it. Reference the Essence notes and recommendations below to see how your spec can best take advantage of each individual power.
Best Marksmanship Hunter Major Essences
The following Essence rankings are based on Rank 3 of each respective essence. These may not hold true at lower rankings due to special effects obtained at Rank 3. As always, for a more accurate result, sim yourself using
Raidbots
to get the best results.
When comparing Major Essences, we take into account both the Major and the paired Minor effect, since you cannot separate them in the Major slot. When comparing Minor Essences, we assume you have a stand alone Minor slot available, starting at level 55 neck.

Notable Essences
While the above rankings are true in most scenarios, there are a few Essences that change based on the scenario. Below are some notable Essences that may become better/worse depending on the situation.
Major
- It is important to note that only Rank 3 is this good. Unfortunately, Ranks 1 and 2 are rather underwhelming and it is possible that other essences will overtake Condensed Life-Force until you obtain Rank 3. Be sure to sim yourself!
- Breath of the Dying major is essentially like Crucible of Flames 2.0. The major difference is that if you use it while a target is in Careful Aim range (above 80% health or below 20% health), it's cooldown is reduced by 30 sec. Addtionally, if you kill an enemy with it, it will deal 100% increased damage on its next use. Even with this effect, it does not become one of our better major essences, but it does make it better than sims indicate so be aware.
Minor
- Worldvein minor can be stacked by multiple people, to increase its proficiency. You typically need at least 4-5 other people to gain the most benefit from the trait (only others with the trait benefit). Having 5 people allows you to get nearly 100% up time on 4 stacks of the agility proc. Worldvein was buffed in patch 8.3 and is now one of our best essences.
- Focusing Iris minor is very strong in pure single target situations. However, the Haste resets if you stop attacking your main target and swap to another target. This can be very bad in Mythic+ for example where you are constantly swapping targets so this trait falls off heavily in AoE (Although sims will not indicate this due to the fact that sims will never swap targets). It is also important to note that swapping to another target but using abilities such as
will maintain the stacks, as long as you continue to damage the primary target.
