Rake in Hearthstone.

Rake is a druid talent. It is a basic direct damage melee attack with a damage over time component. It is an effective damage technique against high armor enemies (Mail and Plate wearers), as well as preventing rogues from using Ability vanish [Vanish]. It is automatically learned for Feral druids.

Notes[]

  • Deals 20% less damage in PvP combat.
