'''Disengage''' causes you to leap backward up to 13 yards, like a knock-back, but for yourself (or like a backwards [[Blink]]).
 
 
==Uses==
 
*Note that Disengage is not a PvP-only ability by any means. In heavy movement fights, the speed increase from disengaging can be invaluable. One example is jumping into a safe zone in [[Eye of Eternity]] or leaping over slime puddles that [[Professor Putricide]]
 
*A skilled hunter can perform a "Jump-disengage". It is similar to [[Tips_to_playing_a_hunter#Jump_Shot | Jump Shot]], but instead of firing a shot mid-air he Disengages and turns another 180 degrees.
 
 
==Notes==
 
One of the classically infamous Hunter spells, can easily add additional mobs to a fight if an inexperienced Hunter Disengages without checking their rearview mirror.
 
 
If possible, jump right before you Disengage for an increased travel distance.
 
 
If Disengage is used at high places, hitting your [[Parachute Cloak]] or other slow fall effect will extend the length of your flight by incredible amounts. If used against mobs, they will almost always disaggro and return.
 
 
The leaping speed is 184% (If i remember correct), so you will move faster than 150% flying mount for a very short time. The speed increase will remain if you Disengage over a ledge and use a slow fall effect.
 
 
== Patch changes ==
 
* {{Patch 3.1.2|note=Cooldown reduced by 5 seconds.}}
 
* {{Patch 3.1.0|note=Cooldown increased by 5 sec.}}
 
* {{Patch 3.0.3|note=Now fails if you're rooted and is no longer on the global cooldown. Cooldown reduced to 25 seconds and no longer requires a target, though the hunter has to be in combat.}}
 
* {{Patch 3.0.2|note=This ability has been re-designed. Now leaps the Hunter backwards up to 13 yards. 30 second cooldown. Disengage now also only has one rank (rank 1).|comment=Previously reduced threat against the target by a set amount.}}
 
* {{Patch 1.2.0|note=Disengage will cause the Hunter's target to immediately check for a new target.}}
