Everyone should read Zeherah's post on EJ, excellent summary.

# Pet growl is now a true taunt and no longer just increased threat

That makes me happy. Still not entirely happy with the autocast situation concerning Stampede, but I'll live since I plan to use Glyph of Stampede anyhow.

[Meggers]

Oh man, inc growl trolling. x:

[Ziarre]

Well, at best it'll just mean leaving Growl on means a much swifter and harsher reminder to turn it off--namely, a flattened pet.

At worst, it'll kill other people in the process.

[Kalliope]

The best part of that change is that you can't be accused of having growl on unless you actually do. Yes, this has happened before. -_-

[Novikova]

Yeah, it has. The frustrating part is I recall briefly that there's been bugs with the pet spell book and sometimes they would just cast stuff because they could.

[Kalliope]

That's why growl is always on my active pet bar, to ensure that it doesn't switch back to autocast.

[Derax]

I liked that post thanks for the link.

This is perhaps my most favorite part:

Q) Do I need to wait between casts of explosive shot to avoid clipping?
A) No, as of 5.0 explosive shot no longer clips. When you apply a new explosive shot, it rolls whatever damage is left on the previous one into the new DoT ticks (similar to piercing shots).

Same! Only exception would be my Tenacity pets, since I want Growl left on there.

And since I always run with a Tenacity 'just in case' I am going to be buying the hell out of a Glyph of Stampede.

This! Although I will miss taunting my prot pally bf by leaving it on!

As if we didn't have enough troll-tools already (that deliciously-squishy mage called you a huntard? MD+BW+Arcaneshots till your focusbar is empty )

Last LFR I did, I happened to be grouped with some other hunter who thought it's supper-funny to go into Aspect of the Dazed Party during Haggara lightning phases...
