Worry less about the nerf and more about the bug that will despawn your pet when breaking Camo.

I think it's been this for ages, however I noticed a while ago that my pet didn't break camo when I sent it off to attack

Use the 'send pet' command and position your pet closer, that way you still have some element of surprise.

It's like this since the launch of Cataclysm, It's just you that didn't tested before. Originally Posted by Jafar

2011-01-05, 09:13 AM #11Deletedno, its not. i play alot of pvp and against people i always started with KC, now if i send my pet to them it will instantly break it. It used to break when pet had its 1st hit on them. But they ninja nerfed it so that it breaks the moment i send pet to them. Originally Posted by Ballistic

Does it still do it if you disable autocast on charge and dash?

So, send your pet to a spot on the ground next to them and then hit KC. Problem avoided?

Not if we're talking pvp, there's no way they'll still be there by the time your pet gets to the target location. The benefit used to be that it allowed a BM hunter to get the opening shot via kill command before the opponent could do anything. Now they can counterattack or CC you or your pet the moment you go in for the attack. Originally Posted by LQDMTL

I know in arenas if you sent your pet in you would be "in combat" and rogues were unable to sap you. Camo breaks when you get in combat. The thing is you wouldn't actually BE in combat but they still couldn't sap you so I guess it has something to do with that mechanic or bug w/e you wanna call it.

Camo wasn't built to be like a rogue's stealth. We have to have our limits. I do find it disappointing, slightly, but it just means we have to come up with new ways to use it. It doesn't really bother me too much since I PvP with a spider anyway, so by the time my camo's broken, my opponent's trapped in a web, and I still have the element of surprise on my hand.

I'm not a big fan of this. Now Even if I attempt to get an opener on anything ever, other ranged have a good amount of time to do the same. Using the send pet option isn't a bad idea but, I feel for the Hunters who are torturing themselves by doing arena and even BG's while we are still "broken".
