Ranged Beastmaster Ranger Power Ideas

Here's a ranged beastmaster ranger at-will power I've thought up. Basically, it's designed so that if a target moves away from the beast (this includes shifting), the beast can slow it up.

Prey-Harrying Shot
Alerted by your ranged attack, your beast is ready to trip-up your foe if he tries moving away.
At-Will: Beast, Martial, Weapon
Standard Action Ranged weapon (beast 1)
Target: One creature
Attack: Dexterity vs. AC
Hit: 1[W] + Dexterity modifier damage
Effect: If the target moves away from your beast companion before the beginning of your next turn, you may command the beast to make an opportunity attack. If the attack hits, the target takes damage as normal and is slowed until the end of your next turn.

"Ranged weapon (beast 1)" means the attack is made from a distance up to the range of the weapon, but the target must be adjacent to the beast. Basically, if the target tries to move away from the beast, say to charge the ranger, the beast's opportunity attack (if it hits) can buy the ranger time to move to a better location. Otherwise, the target stays rooted to the beast, and the ranger can continue plinking away, WoW-style. ;)
