Does demoralizing roar generate threat? Yes, but not when the mob is prone. This article will explain why. In addition, it will explain why taunt, Challenging Shout, and Mocking Blow do not generate threat. These effects will give the mob an aggro debuff if used on a prone mob. But, you may wonder why they do not generate threat when they are prone.

Taunt gives you instant aggro on the mob
You can use the taunt mechanic to add 30% threat to the mob. This buff is permanent and will not expire, even if the mob overtakes you by 10%. But you should be aware of the dangers of taunting too many times. The taunt can backfire on Too Dumb to Fool mobs. These mobs may misinterpret your taunt as insult backfire, and ignore it, resulting in loss of aggro.
There are various ways to gain aggro on mobs. Generally, the person who taps the mob first gets instant aggro for 5 seconds. This aggro lasts until the player is interrupted, and the mob swaps to the most recent attacker. The timer for the aggro check has been shortened from seven seconds in 2018 to five seconds in 2021. However, damage over time and heals don’t seem to generate aggro.
Challenging Shout and Mocking Blow give you a forced attack debuff
Challenging Shout and Mockshout are two skills that grant you a forced attack debuff. These attacks are similar to Taunt, but they both have slightly different effects. The first one decreases your target’s defense, while the latter decreases the debuff’s duration. Both of these skills also affect pets, but they are not as effective against Brutallus as Taunt.
Heroic Strike generates no threat
There are two major advantages to using Heroic Strike, and both have drawbacks. First, it generates no threat from demoralizing roar, so it is a poor choice for tanks. Second, it is a waste of rage – tanks need every melee attack to generate rage. Finally, it decreases threat generation. If you’re a tank, you should cleave rather than using Heroic Strike, as cleaving will generate more threat than rage.
Another drawback of Heroic Strike is that it costs a significant amount of Rage. It is better used for PvP when the enemy has a high demoralizing roar, as the ability will be wasted otherwise. Finally, it can be incredibly useful if you are tanking several mobs, as it will instantly deal extra damage. You will need to be aware, however, that this ability does cost Rage, and you will need to spend some of it on other attacks.
Sunder Armor vs Battle Shout generates 275 threat per-mob
Sunder Armor vs Battle Sh outcries a group of mobs, but is the better option for your class? Here’s a look at the pros and cons of both skills. In PvP, Sunder Armor generates more threat per-mob, while Battle Shout generates less threat per-mob.
Demo shout: This ability reduces your damage by 10-12 per mob. Typically, a 5 man fight will yield about 27-28 mobs, and the threat generated per-mob is still quite high. But, in the 5-man content, Battle-shout will reduce your damage. In a typical five-man group, the Demo shout reduces your damage by up to ten percent.
