 [Defensive Stance] |
A most important aggro-management skill for all warriors who wish to improve their ability to tank mobs.
Functionality
Defiance increases the threat generated by your attacks and abilities in [Defensive Stance]. The threat increase is multiplicative with the Defensive Stance threat modifier.
Notes
For a tanking Warrior, Defiance is a very useful ability. It increases the Warrior's base threat multiplier in Defensive Stance to 149.5%. This multiplier applies to all threat produced by the Warrior, from auto-attacks to abilities with innate threat such as 
[Heroic Strike], 
[Revenge], 
[Sunder Armor], 
[Shield Bash] and 
[Shield Slam], and the damage components of these abilities as well. It applies to 
[Demoralizing Shout] and 
[Battle Shout] as well.
Trivia
- Defiance is a rare Warrior talent card in the World of Warcraft: Trading Card Game's Blood of Gladiators series.
