Hunter PvE best in slot at level

The best gear for a level 20 Hunter in the WoW Forever beta, slot by slot, with stats and sources for every item. PvE list: The bow or the gun first, then Agility for the ranged attack power and the critical strike it carries. Intellect counts just as much, point for point, because Careful Aim 5/5 turns all of it into attack power. Stamina and Strength count for nothing.
