Tips and Tactics

This ability is best used to save a group from a wipe when aggro gets out of hand or there are adds that must be quickly and surely drawn to you. After the 6 seconds time, aggro will switch back to its original holder unless enough fresh threat was generated during that time. Good options to generate aggro on the multiple mobs attracted are: [Thorns], [Demoralizing Roar], and Swipe. Besides those, when grouped up, paladin [Retribution Aura] can be a good help.

This skill is akin to the warrior's [Challenging Shout].
