New Camouflage in Cataclysm Alpha

Looks like Camouflage is getting more and more similar to the version shown in Wrath beta. :D Here's the current tooltip in Cataclysm alpha:
Camouflage
45 Focus
Instant cast 1 min. cooldown
You camouflage, causing you and your Pet to blend into your surroundings. After 3 sec., you will enter a stealthed state. While stealthed, you and your pet's movement speed is reduced by 30%, but the damage done by your next attack is increased by 30%.
You can lay traps while under the effect, but any damage done by you or your pet will cancel the effect. Cannot be cast while in combat.
I for one am really excited about this and can't wait to get to stealth around with my pet at my side. ^^ Finally there's an option to run-feign-let pet die if you want to get past some tough mobs without having to kill them.
It's awesome that they decided against the Camo shown in the Hunter preview and went back to the original design.

I'm in love with this spell now. Giving us stealth is fitting, hunters can be compared to rogues with bows, at least the ranger-type hunters (thinking MM). Giving it a delay before kicking in is a good way to balance it too, since it would be a bit overpowered to charge in on a mount, wait until the enemy ahs targetted you, and then stealth just to drop their targets.
A fine spell, if you ask me.

Not a true stealth, but it'll give hunters more of an edge in arena which we need.

I see this more as an offensive spell as opposed to defense. You can set up ambushes. Can you imagine how badass it will be putting hunters as flag guards now that they can stelth?
"HAHAH I got the flag...OH SH**!! I just got shot, I should run, oh wait is that Hyennas attack slowing me down?' ___CACKLES WILDLY____ sorry

I really need to stop slacking and get my hunter ready for Cata. That spell sounds like so much fun!

That's interesting. That'll give me double stealth, but this means I can do it without needing a cat to have both of us stealthed. I really like this better then the other one. I'll cross my fingers.

This makes me want another really wicked looking pet.....just so they can come out of stealth and jump people. Maybe a nice spider....
