I think Blizzard knows they are way in over their heads on this one. Classic was implemented in the worst way possible. A closed BETA that consisted of players holding PvP tournaments and not doing what good BETA invites would do, granted some did do some testing while others farmed BIS to win money. The more days that go by the more I find myself trying to talk myself out of unsubbing despite how much I enjoy Vanilla. This is more like a terrible off brand Vanilla found at your local dollar store.

Bump hopefully gets noticed!

It’s not just trap- it’s everything involved with the lack of combat drop. Meld… eat/drink, trinket swap etc.
Please fix our broken class.

Well yes, the issue isn’t related to feign trap it’s feign’s combat drop.
We just say feign+trap because people who don’t have a combat drop don’t really understand the mechanic, but they do know feign+trap is a thing and generally how it should work.
So, telling them feign+trap makes them aware that something doesn’t work as it should without them needing to know the details to understand it.
In the Classic Dev Q/A a dev commented that the hunter was the single most difficult class to recreate Classic style. Given the complexities of the class, I can understand that.
However, the devs had NO BUSINESS decimating the class in the FIRST place. The retail hunter is abysmal. Removing core abilities and selling them back as talents cheapened the entire class (for all classes, really) but I won’t forget the day I logged on in the Legion pre-patch to find I had three abilities: autoshot, multishot and arcane shot. No traps, hunter’s mark, cheetah buff … all GONE! The return to semi-playability in retail has been slow and I still hate it.
Having destroyed the hunter for retail, it is possible that there is no one left at Blizzard who knows how this class was supposed to function originally. For the first few weeks of Classic, I was unable even to keep a pet without it randomly vanishing for no reason.
However in fact, hunters are not the only class experiencing problems with aggro/combat drops and I think it’s that mechanic itself that is broken.
FD and Vanish are two abilities that are supposed to drop aggro/combat and yet, neither does.
Yes, this needs attention, immediately. Without the ability to drop combat, many classes are just broken.
Bumping this can we get a blue response please? This bug is obvious and clear to any hunter player

#1 issue, I am not sure if they can not or will not fix it, but this is game breaking for hunters.

How are we a year into classic and hunters are still trash due to this batching and leeway.
FD/Trap is still awful and melee can abuse it by targeting pet
