Poke with Q (Javelin Toss) from long range, then use the Hunt speed boost to close and finish with cougar form once a javelin has landed.

Javelin Poke

›

A javelin lands at range. Transform and use Takedown on the wounded target for a quick trade before backing off.

Trap Burst

›

Best when the target is caught by Bushwhack or a javelin. Pounce in, Takedown, then Swipe to finish.

Pounce Reposition

›

You need to chase a low target or jump out of a bad position. Pounce takes you in the direction you choose.

The trapJumping in with cougar form without a landed javelin or trap. You lose the Hunt speed boost and the mark that lets you win the trade.
