The
cheap power leveling ETC hunter, for instance, was my first Alliance hunter ever. This talent has been replaced by Culling the Herd. Cooldown reduced
from 30 minutes to 5 minutes.
Hunter pets now innately take 90% less damage from area-of-effect abilities like all other class pets. This does not apply to area-of-effect damage caused by
other players. Culling the Herd: This pet talent has replaced the Avoidance
cheap power leveling talent in the pet trees. Hunter pets now gain that benefit
automatically without expenditure of talent points. Culling the cheap power leveling increases pet and hunter damage by cheap power leveling for 10 seconds
each time the pet deals a critical strike with cheap power leveling Claw, Bite, or Smack.
Now also increases the chance for ranged attacks to miss the hunter by 100% while under its effect. This ability no longer affects threat, and instead
reduces damage taken by the pet by 40% for 6 seconds with a 45-second cooldown. While cowering, the pet's movement speed is 50% of normal speed. Cower and
cheap power leveling now only has a single rank and is available at pet level 20. The attack power reduction from this ability has been increased by 40%,
equaling the maximum possible attack power reduction from the abilities of other classes.
