ok, I know that /panicshot has been nerfed in the past... groovy. I understand *achem* "Balance issues"

Here's my problem...
I shoot a kritter and I get a message saying:

"You delay --insert kritter name-- for 10 seconds"

But when I look at my Combat Chat tab, I get hit by said kritter 2-5 seconds after I panic it!

Why?

Panic shot breaks if you do damage to it, as of it's last nerf.

Panic shot is really just for running or stalling. If you wanna use panic shot as the delay that it is, make a macro: /panicshot;/pause 1;/peace

Well it's a crowd control thing only now. You've got mulitple targets and you and your buddies are beating on ONE of them. So you panic shot the heard, and you've just given your group 10 seconds more of uninterrupted beating time. The down side is, that's really it's only use.

Depending on your pistol speed you might want to increase the pause. Those who are unable to fire low blow at a one second attack speed are going to peace before panic shot is fired.
