A player casting Abyssal Cry
Warcries are active skills that provide situational benefits to players and are typically aligned with melee characters, because they only affect nearby enemies and allies. In addition to the bonuses, warcry skills naturally taunt enemies within their range to attack the player instead of his allies, allowing one party member to act as a "tank". Warcry skills have greater effect the more enemies are nearby.
Warcries do not have the Spell or Cast gem tags and therefore cannot be supported by support gems such as
