Intimidation Intimidation1/1Command your pet to Stun the target for 3 sec on its next successful attack, which also gains 100% increased critical strike chance. Generates high threat.

How to play this beta version

  1. Send the pet first and give it time to establish threat before increasing ranged pressure.
  2. Use Summon Hawk with awareness that it shares its cooldown with Arcane Shot.
  3. Keep pet health and positioning under control; reserve Intimidation for a cast or dangerous pressure window.

What changes from the 51-point build?

  • Bestial Wrath needs 31 points and is not selected.
  • This is a pet build; dismissing the pet removes both its protection and the Focused Fire condition.

If repeated travel is your priority, retain Pathfinding. For tougher pulls, reassess those utility ranks against pet recovery options while keeping row gates legal.

Why this beta talent split?

Intimidation and Summon Hawk are useful when the pet handles a pull. Marksmanship offers personal critical chance and Survival offers conditional tracking damage; both five-point dips lose the pet stun and pet damage investment, so pet control remains the default here.

When to use

Use when personal attacks matter more than the pet stun and hawk in your pulls.

Trade-off

Adds Lethal Attacks but loses Intimidation, Summon Hawk and the selected Ferocity ranks.

How to play Beast Mastery Solo

Let your pet establish threat before committing ranged damage. Use Mend Pet as needed, avoid sending the pet through extra packs, and use Intimidation or Bestial Wrath when an enemy requires more control or damage. Traps and distance help recover a bad pull; the build does not guarantee that every outdoor elite is soloable.
