Screech is an ability for [[Hunter]]s to teach their pets. It does [[physical]] damage to a single target and applies a debuff that lowers the attack power of all nearby enemies. The [[AoE]] debuff of screech has an innate threat value built into it, making Screech a powerful tool for pet-tanking multiple mobs. Allow 4 applications of Screech, and then nearby targets can be shot with a Hunter's [[Multi-Shot]] without getting aggro.

==Usability==
 
This ability is highly important in End Game raids, though many do not appreciate it. It can cut some 8% of the *melee* damage from the mob on the warrior. In "End Game Raids" this ability can be powerful. It is strongly advised that a hunter apply this on bosses that are beaten through on heavy melee damage. And the different ranks of screech stack with each other - which means with two hunters you can reduce 310 attack power from the mob.
