"Why should I worry about magic? A well-placed kick will stop even the most potent of spells." —Nathressa Darkstrider[1]

Kick is a level 6 rogue ability that interrupts spellcasting. If Kick interrupts a spell, it also prevents the target from casting any spell from that school for 5 seconds.

Notes[]

Proper use of Kick is helpful in many instances where spellcasters are present. In endgame raid situations, rogue Kicks may be necessary.

Tips and tactics[]

Properly staggering the cooldowns of Kick, Ability rogue kidneyshot [Kidney Shot], and Ability gouge [Gouge] can keep a caster almost completely crippled for the duration of a battle.

See Interrupt for information and tactics on using interrupts such as Kick.
