'''Curse of Recklessness''', or CoR for short, was a Warlock Curse that caused the target to ignore all fear effects and reduced their armor but increased their attack power.

This spell if useful for any humanoid that might run near death. Look for the "runs away in fear" emote around 20% health. The trick is to place CoR rank 1 (lower mana cost) just before then, leaving a more useful Curse on for the majority of the fight.

==Phasing==
−
Curse of Recklessness also nullifies [[Fear]]. This means that a Warlock can easily CC by casting fear on a mob, and then casting CoR just before it gets out of range. This allows time for a pet to take aggro or your party to finish it off. If the mob gets back to you before the original fear would have run out you can cast another curse, canceling CoR and the mob will start running again.
