Description

Challenging shout, make the monster attack you, and decreases his defence and damage. Rising the skill enable shouting more monsters at once, and increases the amount of decreased damage and defence.

Lore

Pinpointing an opponent's physical weakness is not the only talent a warrior of the steppes possesses. He can often ascertain what emotions might push a foe into a fight, against his better judgement. A Barbarian taunts an opponent into a blind rage hoping to capitalize on the mistake he may make while so angered. It is this ability that causes Barbarian's to have a poor reputation as drinking partners.[1]
