Hello! I’m going back to play a BM Hunter and now ofc after watching thousands of videos i don’t know which covenant to choose (NF or Kyrian). Maybe some more experiance players could “help” me to choose and explain which one is better. On begining of SL I played NF but now I see that Kyrian also grew up and I’m kinda lost!
Thanks in advance! Have a nice week! 
I’ve been both. Kyrian for the most part. Went night fae for a few months for that extra burst and i’d say night fae will remain situationally best if you are good at managing that 2min cd.
Kyrian is “easier” kind of. gotta keep collecting them buff timer increase orbs during the 1min cd which is a hassle. As BM tho you have free movement so you’ll be able to pick them up most of the time depending on situation, affixes and stuff.
I prefer kyrian but both will remain viable options which is nice, you actually have a choice. Occasional strong burst versus consistency. However I think the secondary kyrian ability is definitely more useful, having free potions to keep yourself alive and clear debuffs is more useful than just some extra movement fox thingie.
Also let’s not forget you can fly around in almost the entire kyrian base instead of having to run 
tbh i would stick with nf the new covenant legendary is really strong on single target and cleave with up to 4 targets massive dps boost in them scenarios it’s by far the best for bm atm my raid leader is also a hunter and he switched to kyrian at the start of the patch but has since switched back simply because how strong the new covenant legendry is for nf
Kyrian is better.
It truly is a case where you can play what you prefer, they are very close.
na kyrain was ahead of nf on single target at the start of the patch nf still had stronger aoe but now with the new nf covenant legendry kyrain is no longer the best at st i literally burst on opener for about 14k-16k on a target dummy with bm and the new leggo at 232 item lv
And if you want to PVP you have to be venthyr. What a lovely game & design.
But you know maybe next patch it will be an another covenant / leg … who knows with this dev’team. hope you love to re-grind this marvelous renom stuff etc. Or maybe you like to don’t have the best tools for the content you want to play.
Never see so dumb, frustrating system in a mmo"rpg" … whatever if you are noob,casual, mid or pro player.
I try but i’m done with this 
See you next x-pack if it’s better (hope).
I am NF and no plans on changing to Kyrian at this point.
The mobility you get with Soul Shape is really nice, especially when you’re trying to get out of bad. You can also choose an ability in your covenant tree - where you regenerate a % of your health every 3 seconds while you’re in soul shape.
Wild Spirits - in my view rather handy for a BM hunter because our AOE damage can be lacking.
I picked venthyr bcuz i like the idea of flayed shot.
