So I know this should probably go in the hunter section, but it seems like no one views class specific sections.
What are the current best bm hunter pets in pvp and pve?

wowhead or ask in game hunters?
As far as I know it doesn’t matter at all anymore, since all pet deal the same dmg: that’s at least what I read. Tanacity gives you more survivability, ferocity is nice for HT/BL, maybe cunning has some advantages for PvP.

TLDR : All pets deal the same damage, so you should only focus on the special ability.
They suggest scale beasts (-50% dmg received buff), spirit beasts (heal & dispell iirc) etc
You’ll find the detail of all pet abilities in this guide (among other source)

Pick your poison, some may be better than others but it won’t suddenly change everything.
I’d suggest you pick a pet you like instead of focusing on the abilities and performances but you do you.

It is i go in game see cool guy with good rating and ask him you know social game?
Excuse me but aren’t the forums supposed to be a platform to ask questions such as these?
What else would they even be for otherwise lol
And on topic, afaik bis hunter pet for pvp are undead raptors, because they have MS and can’t be feared with scare beast.

Unfortunately the community staff around here have been less than successful in funnelling activity to the subject-specific subforums, so posting anything outside of General Discussion is a waste of time and effort.
Tame elegon, he is a cool cosmic dragon, i love him as pet on my hunter!

If you ask on forums sooner then in game i feel something went wrong.
I don’t think so.
If you make a forum post about it, it’s not directly pestering someone, which is something that randomly whispering randos can be construed as.
It’s much easier to simply ignore topics that do not interest you here.

Get a boar and aim for the face.
While all pets deal the same damage on a single target, you’ll find target switching can cost uptime on target so pets that move fast between mobs have a very very small advantage, I tend to pick Aqiri pets for this reason, they move 40% faster on their own, plus their pet specialisation of 12% which stacks so they move 52% faster. Faster to target > more uptime on targets.
As others have said though, it’s also circumstantial of what you need from a pet.
