    This is sweet! You can give your MT so much threat with this! Just open up with an Aimed shot followed by a Distracting shot and an Auto Shot you have a boat load of threat immediately given to the MT! Like SUPER SUPER glue to the tank.

        For best usage and aggro gain avoid any autoshots while MD is active. i prefer to start with an Aimed shot, immideatly followed by a Steady shot, then a multishot or a distraction shot, whatever u feel is best. if ur gear is good and ur critchance thereafter the threat gained to ur target (hopefully your MT) will be increased with a shitload enough to make it a walk in the park.

          By the time you cancel the effect, you already have the agro. However, as a hunter even if a clothie was pissing me off, i would never use this on him during a raid because

          1. Clothies give us the best dots and heals
          2. It'd piss everyone else off worse than he was pissing me off
          3. I like raiding too much to be blacklisted.

          However once were outside and grouped for him to "help" me with some mobs, he can enjoy the pain.

        This is actually useful for crowd control as well, especially in heroics where a lot of mobs are immune to certain types of CC, like the Defenders in Underbog.

        What you do is park your pet up WAY back up the path you came, pop misdirection on him and then pull the mob. Have a freeze trap in the way to catch one, and another will run all the way to your pet, kill him, and run all the way back. Works well with Curse of exhaustion and/or Slow as well. By the time he gets back, you should've kill one so your tank can pick him up to be killed.

        1) people are saying to use distracting shot while this is active (eg. Aimed, Steady, DS). Rank 7 DS does 900 threat. I'm wondering if anyone has in game experience with DS vs something else. Is DS better to use than something else?

        2)I know it says "Threat caused by your next 3 attacks", but I was wondering if hunter DoTs are part of an attack? To be clear, if on the 3rd attack a hunter used Serpent Sting, would the DoT damage be part of the third attack or is each tick the 4rth, 5th, 6th, (etc) attacks?

        Answer to the DoT effect, Yes, it does. Also, for serious players that use this ability for what is meant to be used for, you macro it to your main tank, Example:

        #showtooltip Misdirection
        /cast [target=tank name] Misdirection

        Or for folks that use /focus targeting along with xperl addons or what not, the better choice for you would be...

        #showtooltip Misdirection
        /cast [target=focus] Misdirection

        Or for the soloist's, this one would be for you.

        #showtooltip Misdirection
        /cast [target=pet] Misdirection


        The bad part of the first one would be you have to change macros every time you regroup, or are with a different tank. Bad part to focus ones is, I usually like to focus on DPS targets rather than the tank, and i have my Distract Shot macrod to switch my target to focus right after i use it so i avoid breaking my own traps. Which one is better? Depends on your playing style, the first macro is my first of choices, you just have to remember each raid to switch it or youll find yourself clicking misdirect and it having no effect, and your raid wondering wtf you are doing. For those wondering what macro code you use for distract. Is as follows

        /stopattack
        /target focus

        This is my macro for distracting shot, assuming you know how to use /focus macros and what not. This will prevent you from losing precious dps from trapping.
