Intimidation (trait)

This trait became the passive skill Intimidation when all traits were removed from the game prior to the press event of July 2011. This is archived for future curiosity and reference. This page is not to be updated with current info; see the skills page for current skill information.

Intimidation is a trait possessed by the Barbarian, Monk, and Wizard. It increases damage done to monsters as well as reducing vendor costs.

Classes

This is a Barbarian, Monk, and Wizard trait. It seems likely to be assigned to the Demon Hunter as well, as character development continues.

As of Blizzcon 2010, this was not listed as one of the Witch Doctor traits. Apparently the peaceful, in-tune-with-nature aspect of being a Witch Doctor precludes intimating monsters or human merchants. That and the whole "dog bones and coconuts for armor" thing...
