Shockwave is a warrior class talent. It deals a small amount of damage and stuns all targets struck for 2 seconds in a point-blank area of effect cone.
Tips and tactics[]
- Use right after a pull in a group of mobs, then [Thunder Clap], wait for the stun effect to wear off and use [Shield Block] for initial damage mitigation and good threat boost.
- Can be used to (mass) interrupt and to stun fleeing mobs, if timed correctly.
- Shockwave should not be used while damage mitigation abilities such as [Shield Block] are active, unless incoming damage is overwhelming.
