What I’ve noticed ever since I got FD at lvl 30 is that it has a delay much greater than it actually did back in Vanilla (yes I actually played back then). Was testing it out without a pet active (even though I’m BM specced atm) - mob attacks me I kite it for a while then use FD - I am in combat until the mob actually returns to it’s original point where it was before I pulled it - which would mean if I kite the mob though half of STV it’s going to take a long time for me to drop combat even though the mob released me.
Also when just walking through the world with aspect I would sometimes send the pet on a mob that’s in front of me not to get dazed, pet gets aggro and we run away together - once the mob releases from the pet it starts to chase me even though I had 0 aggro on the mob - this never happened in Vanilla.
Pet commands like attack/follow/stay are still pretty wonky and unresponsive.
Intimidate sometimes takes ages to apply ( I know the spell says on the first successful attack that it will apply) even though I see pet damage going off, it doesn’t get applied.
Meele leway causing mobs to hit you from huge distances when travelling. Sometimes from the range I can shoot them with my bow.
Not to mention traps not usable in PVP combat even though pet is just on follow. If the pet already attacked it’s impossible with the way they are unresponsive.
Regretting a tiny bit that I chose to level a hunter with all these issues. Hopefully some of this will be addressed.

My suggestion is to just flood blizz with bug reports everywhere you can. In game and on forums. Request GM help non stop. Otherwise they will not give a single F just like with anything else.

You do know that a enemy player can see if you’ve fd and will still attack you. Working as intended.
make sure your Pet stops attacking / on passive before you FD for maximum effectiveness. I have had it before when the FD didnt work because the pet kept on attacking.
This should never be an issue as there is no global cooldown between FD and trap. Both abilities should be resolved in the same instant, thus there should be no way to put any action between those to put you back in combat. And this is how it worked back in the days.
Troll, or ignorant about hunter mechanics.

If an enemy resists feign death it will not drop combat. owo
The hunter loses all aggro, which causes the enemy to stop attacking them and either flee back to its “territory”, attack the hunter’s pet, or attack whomever has the next highest threat. This skill is not always successful because nearby enemies do have a chance based on your relative level to resist this effect.
If it is putting them out of combat in a pvp scenario then yes it’s a bug but otherwise I’m not seeing an issue…
Now open your link and tell me if you see anything like: “Feing Death not implemented dummy ability that does nothing. This is consistent with reference client.”
Edit: in fact, there is no mention of FD in this list.
Actually I have every class and race in wow so know what I’m talking about. Plus been playing since 2005. I like to educate those who know nothing about their class as it was back in the little brown box days. 
Feign death is not a 100% skill. Some Mobs can see through it. Just like stealth for a Rogue.
your reaction is beautiful, I love it.
OK I’ll test it out I’ll roll a hunter watch this space.
I got like, 20% baited. So gz I guess 
Mobs just ignore it and keep attacking even when not resisted. PvP usage, which should never be resisted, does not drop combat for even a single server tick.
Its imposible to react, FD+trap is almost insta trap spell, i know what you talking about, but problem is FD doesnt drop combat, idk whats your problem guys and how cant u listen what we talking about xD. Feing Death = Bugged = Doesnt drop combat in most of cases, before it was safe combat trap macro now it doesnt works = Bugged + need to be fixed, lol i know now with what kind of people BLizzard works 15 years, bro 2+2=4 not 5.

Goinggnome you need to read the full comments on the threads you are replying to regarding this issue, you are talking about different things, we understand resists, and believe it or now we also understand players will be able to spot FD and retarget, a lot of us are talking about combat dropping in pvp

It’s funny how some people would think I would go to the extent of writing a forum post if I had not checked if the enemy PvE or PvP resisted the spell.
I’m not talking about resists I’m talking about mobs same or lower LvL than me releasing but not taking me out of combat for 5-6 seconds until they return to their spawn place(the FD has not been resisted at all). Pet was not active at all while I did it.
In PvP also there was no “out of combat” to place a trap after using Freezing Trap(pet is on passive) before the player kept hitting me(not resisted the FD).
