Enrage effect
- For other uses, see enrage.
Enrage effects are a type of temporary buff caused by various talents and abilities. Each Enrage has its own effects, and different Enrages do not stack. The exception is the
[Vengeance] buff, which can be active at the same time as any other Enrage effect.
Various mobs and bosses use enrage effects. Of the playable classes, all tanking specializations gain the
[Vengeance] passive, which causes damage taken to produce the Vengeance enrage effect, increasing attack power. Aside from Vengeance, enrage effects are limited to Warriors and Guardian Druids in
[Bear Form]. Fury warriors make the most use of Enrage effects, with
[Raging Blow] requiring an Enraged state,
[Bloodthirst] critting frequently, and the Fury Mastery
[Mastery: Unshackled Fury] improving the warrior's total damage while enraged.
