A deterrence rotation would be interesting, been thinking about that myself.

Well I mean, there are definitely enough hunters on 90% of realms to do it. The problem is, about 80% of them are huntards who wouldn't be capable of timing the dust clouds.
Because timing 25 Dust Clouds on 25 Tallstriders is something easy and actually doable, right?

I have tried this, and it failed, horribly, we had 3 Bears to maintain a taunt rotation, and Tailstriders for
Dust Cloud
, the trash resisted the spell and we all got raped even with a
Deterrence
rotation. This was Naxxramas btw. Yeah never doing that again.

5 hunters in my guild regularly do heroics, i know its not a raid but its kinda on the same line of thought.
Well... not really. How are they geared?

I didn't know dust cloud could be resisted.
I thought any spell could be resisted
Moreover, while dust cloud works on some bosses, it dosen't work on all--the boss will simply be immune

maybe
group 1 will consist of the tanks
Turtle

group 2 will consist of the AP reduction
Carrion Bird

group 3 will consist of the major armor debuff
Worm

group 4 will consist of the slows (this is assuming they effect boss' casts which i'm not 100% on)
Corehound

Serpent

group 5 will consist of aoe pets for minor armor debuff
Sporebat

would use a
Tallstrider
/
Raptor
/
Devilsaur
/
Bear
for the fillers depending on the need for additional avoidance, aoe dps, or single target time trial
there're multiple of each debuff pet in the event you're facing multiple bosses at once or one dies
turtle handlers would have to lug around a resil/sp set and spec BM
probably preferable for Tallstrider handlers to be BM for the reduced CD
or maybe 5-6 turtles taking turns taunting and popping shell shield

i'd test it on Patchwerk, the Turtles by themselves would get raped but that's the reason there're Tallstriders around. Turtles have a great defensive ability but while it's down will rely on the Tallstrider's dust cloud to act as their avoidance while the turtle handlers keep mend pet going
some fights would just be impossible without at least 1 healer like loatheb where the hunters taking damage is inevitable
Gluth would be very interesting to see, traps all over the back of the room while the turtles tank if you can position them well then 25 hunters and any aoe pets nuke the zombies

You also have to remember that 98% of the bosses in WoW raiding content are resistant to all of these pet abilities.

i could see them resisting the casting speed debuff and nobody will take the effort to see exactly what bosses resist dust clouds but it's been confirmed to work on some
the AP and armor debuffs will work just fine on them
