A practical guide for players. Check the game version and realm rules before applying recommendations.
Give two clear targets
Before the first attack, tell which enemy you intend to and which one they should attack. Blizzard’s October 7 overview, dated in UTC, describes Sap no longer breaking Stealth in the official WoW Forever . That makes a coordinated opening worth practising. It does not establish that every nearby enemy is a valid target.
Check the target before saying ready
Read the current Sap description and choose an eligible target. Make sure the person starting the fight can identify both enemies without guessing. Say when your preparation is ready; if the target or route changes, stop and agree again. This is a communication exercise, without a claim that one sequence works for every group of enemies.
Reduced detection still needs judgment
Distract also reduces affected enemies’ ability to detect Stealth, according to the overview. It does not guarantee concealment: the alerts affected enemy players that a is nearby. Consider who can notice your preparation before approaching. Treat each new situation as a fresh decision, and read your current spell descriptions. The source describes mechanics, which may still change.
