Rejoice, warriors, as you get something to help maintain aggro on multiple targets. The damage/threat will most certainly work on stun immune targets, so no need to worry about that.

The 20 seconds cooldown make this more of a burst threat ability than something spammable. Without knowing exactly how much extra threat this does, I can't say for sure how viable it really is, though.

Anyway, it sounds about right for a 51 point talent. We'll do the theorycrafting as WotLK approaches.

This spell is inspired by the Tauren Chieftain hero from Warcraft III and its expansion.

Comentario de Absolas

This makes me a VERY happy tank. I always could use a little extra AoE burst more than thunderclap. Unfortunately I am seeing that AP damage modifier, and we all know how little AP we see on tank gear. Hopefully the extra threat is unchanged by AP and only modifies the damage.

Perhaps this is a hint at new tank itemization? A tank equivalent to the spell damage they gave for healers maybe? God I hope so!

Does anyone know if this shares diminishing returns with the other warrior stuns?

Comentario de 78102

I know the CD is longer then Shield Slam (especially if consider sword and board), but will this be the new high threat move for warriors as Shield Slam once was pre-wotlk?

Comentario de 152066

This will be a nice little threat genorator for multiple mobs this plus Thunder clap should improve multi mob tanking alot, makes my life easier :D

Comentario de 101346

This and the buff to Thunder Clap (it now gains 10-20% of your AP, i forget how much) will make AoE tanking MUCH easier for warriors

Comentario de Sly99

I guess seeing how they put this in it could be seen as a fair trade, seeing as the increased the CD for thunderclap, otherwise it would probably make tanking warriors too unbalanced compared to other tanking options.

I'm gonna stack attack power instead of avoidance and stamina and brag to my tank friends how many damage my shockwave crits for. Insanely genius idea to make the top warrior tank talent depend on attack power. Kudo's!

Comentario de Korasoff

You're forgetting that tank stats change drastically in WotLK. There is less focus on avoidance and more on block value through Strength. So yes, even Prot Warriors will sport very respectable AP.

Comentario de Quent

The looks of this spell is rather disappointing. It was so cool in Warcraft 3, I hope its just a PH.

Anyway, It's gonna be great among all the other changes the protection warrior gets.

very good ability for tanking specailly it doesn't cost alot of rage but the cone system kinda sucks . u know its hard to hit a group of moving target with https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/spell=42931 . (Hard to hit not as resisted as u cannot get them all infront of u)

This will be nice not only for AOE tanking (threat generation) but also for temporarily stunning mobs that may get loose due to a knock-back or stun. Looking forward to showing this off in 5 mans. I have already mastered my imp thunderclap aoe tanking, this just gives me one more option. Seems like it may be a better option for an AOE tank opener too, due to the fact that its damage is based on your AP, possibly causing more spike threat than thunderclap, and its lower rage requirement. The stun is just and added bonus for this situation.

Comentario de Dralas

I'm trying to think if this ability is most effect as a charge in, pull mobs backwards to have them form the cone, then use shockwave to have that startup aggro, or more a "OMFG" button

Comentario de 93181

Since this stuns enemies, maybe this is not the best skill to open an AoE situation with. If you start with this and all the enemies are stunned, you won't be getting hit and generating as much rage for those four seconds*, while the mage gleefully starts blowing stuff up as soon as he sees shockwave go off. That leaves you high and dry for when the stun wears off and you have several mobs to get back aggro on.

I'd suggest thunderclap first, and then shockwave after a few seconds when it looks like things have settled.

* I don't know how much rage warriors will be getting from white damage dealt when the patch goes live and we get a lot more AP, but this is still a good bet.

Comentario de Tamika

From my own experience, it's a godly talent for a CC-hater tank like me. Tried this talent out in heroic MgT (no CC) it's very powerful. Usually opening with Bloodrage-Commanding Shout-Charge-Thunder Clap (while moving to a corner of te pull to be ready to....) - Shockwave. With this opening you get enough aggro (damage shield, TC and shockwave build great initial aggro), the mobs are stunned 4 secs, which gives your healer plenty of time to get you healed to the top, while your DPS most probably already downed one mob.

Also great lifesaver talent when:

Some DPS aggroed 3 or more, and you got no challenging ready/fear is dangerous
Your healer felt asleep
You charged bit too far and healer is out of range (my favorite)

Comentario de Sunderhorse

I must say, this is my new favorite ability as a tank. It allows me to multitank so much easier.
"What? you're running away? BLASPHEMY!" And then you cast this little number.
This also has infinite uses for soloing, and is so nice to escape a mob, and then charge to make a quick getaway.

Comentario de 231313

In the current patch 3.0.2(9056), shockwave does not use up the charge of recklessness therefore it does not 100% crit when using recklessness.

Comentario de 158964

I wish Blizz would make the animation better though... I almost never see it...

Comentario de Korasoff

This is a godsend in PvP versus Rogues since it does not require an equipped weapon or shield. So when they Dismantle after their initial stun wears off, KAPOW. Rend, run away, Charge back in!

Comentario de 59014

It's worth mentioning that Shockwave cannot be dodged or parried. The damage can be partially or fully blocked but the stun is still applied

Comentario de Ezence

This ability is also awesome for single target threat, just as concussion blow is, only downside is that you can't really hit dragons with it or other super large hitbox mobs.

Comentario de yarko

Is it just me or does this spell only last about a second? What is this 4 second thing? It seems like it used to last longer. What happened?

Shockwave causes a controlled stun, which is on diminishing returns with all other controlled stuns. Included in this category are:

Charge
Concussion Blow
Rogue's Kidney Shot
Paladin's Hammer of Justice
Etc...

So if you Charge, Conc Blow, then Shockwave, the duration of the stuns will be as follows:

1 second Charge Stun
2.5 seconds Concussion Blow (50% duration)
1 second Shockwave (25% duration)

After the Shockwave stun wears off, the target will become immune to controlled stuns for 15 seconds.

Comentario de cromer

Love Shockwave, but it becomes useless sometimes with flying mobs. It seams that if you are fighting anything that is above your head, it totally misses, no matter how lined up your are with it. In my opinion, if I'm facing my target and I can hit it with my sword, I should be able to hit it with Shockwave. I've tried jumping and hitting the Shockwave button while in mid-air, but that rarely works. When possible I try to pull the flying mob to a spot where I'm on higher ground than it is.

Is this bugging anyone else? Also curious if it's worse for the few gnome tanks there are out there, considering that most flying mobs would be over their heads...lol.

Comentario de JustAnt

This little gem makes a prot warrior more usefull in PvP.
One example comes to mind in WSG, when 3 or more enemies come through the tunnel to take/save the flag, the warrior can control them with a well placed Shockwave, dealing considerable damage and of course stunning them enough time to let your flag carrier escape or for your reinforcements to come!

As any skill, all you need is some imagination to use it!

Comentario de lolman647

uh, I'm seeing a lot of posts where people are actually worried about their Attack Power as a tank. put max points in Armored To The Teeth to get extra attack power for every 180 armor you have

Comentario de 384121

Good news! With patch 3.1, I believe, charge has a 1.5 second stun that's OFF THE DIMINISHING RETURNS TABLE!

So, you can follow it up with a Shockwave or Concussion blow for a full duration stun, in addition to the 1.5 stun from Charge.

Comentario de 450659

The cone starts off fairly wide at melee range. It will hit ALMOST anything that you could hit with a melee attack. The angle that it can hit around you is larger than your melee attack, meaning that it can hit some enemies that are slightly behind you. There are small areas far to the left or right of your character where your melee attack can hit but shockwave will miss. The cone expands slightly as it goes out, but not much.

Comentario de Priderage

Shockwave's uses extend well into endgame raiding both past and present, with it's stun interrupting all Burrowers casting Shadow Strike for Grand Anub'arak and stunning Shambling Horrors for the duration of their Enrage every single time they cast it.

Other uses include stopping Bloodbeasts on Saurfang, worms from Abominations during Valithria, getting threat on Big Oozes from afar on Rotface and stunning Adherents on Lady Deathwhisper whilst they stand in Death and Decay, immune to interrupt. All this is without considering that it just does an absolute truckload of damage.

All in all this is an absolutely golden ability that the dev's should be damn proud of.
