Description
If Distracting Shot hits, it interrupts target foe's action but deals only 1...13 damage. If the interrupted action was a skill, that skill is disabled for an additional 20 seconds.

Acquisition
Skill Quests: Skill Trainers:
 * Charr Reinforcements (Piken Square)
 * Captain Osric (Yak's Bend)
 * Dakk (Ember Light Camp)

Usage Notes

 * Distracting Shot has an activation time instead of an attack (bow-drawing animation) delay. This means that Distracting Shot is fired much more quickly (in 1/2 second) than regular bow attacks, which are dependent on the attack delay of the bow being wielded (2 seconds for the fastest bow types, 2.75 for the slowest). There is still arrow flight time to take into account, and that can be shortened with skills like Favorable Winds or Read the Wind.
 * After this skill has been used, there is a 3/4 second delay before the next can be activated.
