Hunters in Warlords of Draenor

As it seem there are going to be many changes in the spells and the gameplay of the Hunter in Warlords of Draenor. In this post I'm going to gather all the information about the hunter changes.

Level 15-90 Talents, Blue Tweets

On Hunter raid buffs and Lone Wolf:
@ClashTheDK Yes, you get to choose one of the 6 raid buffs (but still no debuff).

On Explosive Trap:
@tanjon Correct. The trap explodes once when triggered, and leaves a burning DoT on anything hit by the explosion.
— Celestalon (@Celestalon) April 4, 2014
On the removal of Distracting Shot:
@Emiroda Raised the range of Growl so that you can use it in that way, for the majority of cases.
— Celestalon (@Celestalon) April 4, 2014
@DukeOfHeresy There are pet abilities like Cower. Growl works in place of Distracting Shot. You get Counter Shot instead of Silencing Shot.

On Counter Shot:
@PhilipStinger No, you keep Counter Shot. Scatter/Silence were removed as part of overall CC disarmament. Nearly everyone lost something.

On the lack of Execute abilities:
@Lefthander_ Not every spec needs to have an execute. In fact it's a pro that you have an option that doesn't.

On removing Kill Shot for Survival hunters:
@waccaboy See the first paragraph under Hunters. Goal is to distinguish the specs. Some sacrifices had to be made.

On further Misdirection changes:
@PhilipStinger Makes sense. FWIW, there are some major improvements to Misdirection that didn't make the first cut of the patch notes.

-Dismiss Pet now ignores line of sight.
-Hunter Pets now have a 1 second global cooldown.
-Black Arrow’s periodic effect now has a chance each time it deals damage to cause the next 2 Explosive Shots to cost no Focus and not trigger a cooldown. This effect is guaranteed to activate at least once.
-Explosive Trap now places a periodic-damage effect on each target within the radius of the explosion, rather than a persistent effect on the ground.

I have very critical opinion about many of these changes, but for now I'll keep it for myself. Later I'm planning on making a analysis post about all the big changes. I hope that the information was useful.
