I think Blizz is wising up a bit. I can’t say I think they are addressing it from a PvP viewpoint, but rather a logical one.
If you assume the ‘hunter’ has control over what targets are targeted by PvP, then it would be unlikely (not impossible, just unlikely) that they’d ever actually want to target a polymorphed target with a secondary shot from multi-shot. So, if you apply that logic, pick another target for arrows 2 & 3 if they are in range. If they aren’t fire fewer shots in the multi. It makes a degree of logical sense.
In case of that rare time when you actually want the poly hit, make it so that multi breaks sheep if the primary target IS the poly’d target.
That leave the opportunity for huntards and unlucky guys like me to still hit the sheep because of timing issues. I dislike working with mages that don’t use a poly macro stating intent to poly and target. Can’t tell you how many times I’ve had an arrow flying at a target that poly’s and is immediately broken. It’s a real pain in the

Yes it doesn’t relieve some hunters from ‘huntard’ status, but it doesn’t make them any better as a player.
How much do you want to bet this change is PvP related like a lot of the other 2.4

I dunno if I’d say that just yet. It’s merely one of the many ways that people fail at hunter. I am still dumbfounded over the number of hunters I’ve met who when asked about their shot rotation (usually because they are below the tank for dps), don’t use steady “KDenelor is not dumb” – Quite possibly the nicest thing ever said about me…
