| − | ===Uses=== |
||
| ⚫ | |||
| − | * Can be used to pull an enemy away from your pet. You can save your pet from dying this way. You can also tell your pet to "stay" and then hit an enemy with distracting shot. The enemy will run for you, and you can continue to unload on it during this time. When it reaches you, feign death. If it doesn't resist the feign, it will turn around and head back to your pet. Once it reaches your pet, tell the pet to attack it, then get up and resume attacking yourself. Very useful for buying a few extra seconds for your [[Serpent Sting]] or [[Viper Sting]] to work. |
||
| + | |- |
||
| − | * As a hunter, you have a better armor rating than any [[priest]] (except shadow priests), [[mage]], or [[warlock]]. After level 40, you will have more armor than any [[rogue]] or non-bear [[druid]] as well. If one of these classes is in your party, and is under attack, use distracting shot to pull the enemy away from them. It will take that enemy much longer to kill you, which gives your tank more time to try to gain aggro. As always, you can feign death if you are, well, near death, as hopefully the tank will be next on the aggro list. |
||
| + | ! Rank !! [[Energy]]/[[Mana]]/[[Rage]] Cost !! Damage !! Level !! Cost |
||
| − | * Useful for Misdirection Combo. Aimed Shot, Distracting Shot, and Arcane Shot is a good combo to Misdirect with. Distracting Shot generates 900 threat at rank 7. |
