Hey, you, with the face, c'mere...

"I find your excess of resistance disturbing." - Vanessa Fairgraves TCG #?

Death Grip is a Death Knight ability that pulls the target directly to the Death Knight and forces it to attack. This ability can miss, preventing the target moving to the caster, however the forced attack function remains.

Death Grip functions like other Taunt abilities, granting the DK the threat of the mob's current highest-aggro target, in addition to forcing the mob to attack the DK for 3 seconds. Some mobs (especially bosses) are immune to the forced movement mechanic, but the taunt effect remains.

Trivia

On initial release this ability could not be used while moving. Undocumented change was made approximately 12/2/2008 to allow use while moving.
