It does more damage when you chose to use it. What's even better is that it causes damage, on command, when you want it (less often, but it works) in a larger burst... buuuut.. the key thing?
Kill command is an ability that can be used while the target in LoSing the hunter.
This means that an enemy can get out of line of sight.. and a 'Kill Command' has more likelihood of killing the target that is barely escaping out of line of sight.. then in it's origional incarnation.
Even if it isn't perfect, a lot of hunters asked for tools they could use to combat LOS; and most things, given a hunters designed play style (a ranged attacker) have to include the pet. Now I don't know if a 3 minute cooldown is justified.. it could be on a two minute, or a one minute -- but it's still a step in the direction hunters could use. Especially combined with intimidation -- so a hunter has time to get back into LOS.
Dunno. Just my thoughts. Most of my family plays hunters.
So now you have a ranged execute that has no cast time, a long cooldown, and hits for about the same damage Hammer of Wrath has been hitting for since Season 3. :P Grats.
