Changed from Classic Active ability

Piercing Howl sits in row 3 of the Warrior Fury tree. A talent tree is simply the grid of talents for one class role. It costs just one point. So the only question is whether opening its row fits your build.

Changed from Classic. This talent now works differently than in Classic, so read the ranks below before you spend any points.
