Fear
Last wiki revision 2023-08-02
Fear is a warlock spell. Fear causes a single enemy to flee in fear, effectively disabling it temporarily.
- The duration of Fear is dependent on several factors.
- Fear has a potential PvE duration (versus mobs) of 20 seconds.
- Fear has a potential PvP duration (versus players) of 8 seconds.
- Fear has a damage limit. If the target takes damage equal to the limit, the Fear spell will break, regardless of the potential duration of the spell.
- Casting Fear on your minion's current target will automatically cause your minion to stop attacking that target.
- Numerous abilities and items such as PvP trinkets may allow players to break the fear effect prematurely, while others may render them immune.
- When used against mobs, Fear will cause a patrol to aggro, even when glyphed.
- Fear is subject to diminishing returns when used against players. Consequently, repeated use of fear effects upon a player within a 15 second period will reduce the duration of the effect considerably.
- Fear is the only fear effect available to players that does not have a cooldown.
