Pre-Mists of Pandaria
Starting at level 10, a Hunter can begin spending talent points to gain new abilities and spells, strengthen existing abilities, and specialize how he/she functions. See the entry on Talents for more information about the Talent system.
Hunters train in three schools: Beast Mastery, Marksmanship, and Survival. The Beast Mastery tree focuses on increasing the damage capabilities and survivability of a hunter's pet. The Marksmanship tree focuses on increasing the damage dealt by and mana efficiency of a hunter's shots. The Survival tree offers tools to aid in a hunter's survival, and extra utility to the group and raid.
For an in depth analysis of all of the talents please see the Hunter talent analysis article.
